Before and gunman entered a rural Texas church with a ballistic vest and military-style rifle, killing at least 26 people on Sunday, he was convicted of assaulting his wife and breaking his infant stepson's skull.More: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/06/us/devin-patrick-kelley-texas.html
Mark me down, for believing a one year sentence is too light for breaking an infant's skull.Way too light. But the Army just let Bergdahl off pretty light,, so I guess the new compassionate military is the trend.
This monster should never have been walking around.
@austingirl Agreed.Dana Loesch talked with Governor Abbott today. He said, as we often do, that we don't need more laws--the ones we have just need to be enforced. I agree with that, but I don't understand why it's apparently so hard to enforce them.
@CatherineofAragon Abbott and Paxton are standing strong about having citizens being able to protect themselves. When seconds count, the police are only minutes away. I live in a rural Texas town and law enforcement is not a couple of minutes away.
@austingirl That's not what I meant. I was thinking his license was okayed when he shouldn't have had one in the first place.But now I see he was denied a license and probably bought something on the street.
@CatherineofAragon He bought the gun used in the shooting at Academy. He probably lied on the questionnaire and/or the military system did not report to the database.

@CatherineofAragonHe was denied a concealed carry permit. That is not the same as buying a weapon.In Texas, you choose your weapon and the clerk gives you a form to fill out. On one line, it says, "I am a convicted felon" with a space by it to check yes. What convicted felon is going to check that? Then, the clerk calls a number at the FBI for the background check. If there is nothing there, you get the weapon.
