    Stopped A Mass Shooting = zero media coverage

    I'm surprised this one didn't at least get a lot of attention by the pro 2A side, but first I have heard of it.

    Raul Mendez, after being shot through the face, he takes out the shooter and saves his family and friends. The term "hero" over used and abused to the point it's lost its weight and meaning, often applied to some goofy overpaid kid who bounces/throws balls for a living, or actor who came out of the closet, etc.

    Read the account of what happened to this man, and help with the $. I sent $100. GoFund Me page:

    The Go fund me page story sounds horrible. Has an investigation been completed for verification?

    OK looks legit.

    It just seems like there is more to the story than just some crazy neighbor decides to go over and start shooting up a bunch of women and children. Good on him to not stop fighting even though shot in the face.

    No dude is going to get shot in the chest at 300 yards and look down and say "What is that, a 3 MOA group?"

    First I've heard of it.
    My favorite part of my NRA magazine is the "Armed Citizen" section.

    That was always the first thing I read as a kid.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    4th of July party gone wrong, fight, then shooting begins.

    "The incident, according to police, happened at a home near Grand Avenue and Reems Road. The incident began as some sort of fight that happened just after 10 p.m. on July 3, with it ending in a shooting. detectives have discovered that multiple shots were fired by other individuals in attendance. All weapons recovered from the residence have been identified as handguns. https://www.fox10phoenix.com/news/su...everal-injured

    Have no idea what the actual circumstances were, but the story on this one sounds eerily similar to a few gangland home parties that ended with a bang. Who knows...
