Greenwood mall shooting

[nucular]

I would be happy to donate.

I would like to get more details on the incident and GS first but if it all plays out like it sounds, I would be in.

Agreed, just a thought out loud since I remember being 22 and a Glock being a huge purchase for me.

FTFY. I may have missed it but has the handgun used been released?

Thoughts and prayers for the victims that lost their lives and their families and also a prayer of gratitude for the young man that no doubt saved countless other lives.

I would also like to know more specifics. I know that my edc can hit steel at 47 yards but it’s more artillery than firearm. It ain’t pretty and under pressure I wouldn’t want to count on it being effective. Maybe I need to start looking at 4” commanders….

Using a red dot? I can easily get out to 50 on mine (stress not included)

OK, which one of you took the shooter down? I’d like to buy you a beer.

3” 1911 and no red dot. 5” is a lot easier and requires less front site elevation.

You get the beer I’ll buy dinner.

 

[Yup!]

Greenwood Park Mall had policy against weapons ahead of Sunday shooting

The owners of a mall where a shooting took place Sunday had a policy in place making the location a “gun-free” zone.

Hopefully recent events shine a bright light on how stupid these GFZ policies are.

So the shooter was a white conservative church goer?!? Nothing on the shooter yet.

 

[chipbennett]

I bet they do. That's a traumatic thing to do even if for the right reason.

Agreed. Even knowing that it was 100% justified and necessary to save lives, I can't imagine it not being traumatic to take the life of another human.

I know a guy that was involved in a similar incident a few years in Marion county and the firearm was not released quickly, in fact I'm not sure if it was returned. It may be different in Johnson county, at least I hope that would be the case..
There could be a need for some sort of fund for a civil suit but I can't imagine there will be criminal charges. I'm in for the civil suit fund if one is necessary.

Just an FYI.......this is not Greenwood Park Mall in Greenwood, Indiana........lol, you guys are looking at Greenwood Mall in Bowling Green Kentucky I think.....hope nobody has cussed out Simon Malls yet.

Edit: I found Simons CoC.......looks about the same. https://www.simon.com/legal/code-of-conduct

All Simon Group mall are posted "no guns".

Send a message to CBS at the bottom of that article.

Asked why they didn’t bring up the deranged psychopath who also broke “mall policy.”

Morons…

Seems to me the smart thing for the 'Good Samaritan' would be to re-holster after the event, quietly walk out and disappear. Then engage counsel to discuss the situation with the police. And stay out of the press as we can see they are spinning it that he should not have had a weapon at the mall.

Fox is also playing the GFZ story

 

[chipbennett]

I believe it's legal. But he can be trespassed.

Not now, they can't. I assume he's no longer on their property. I guess they could have said to him, "Yeah, guy that just saved a bunch of lives? We demand you leave." And had he refused to leave, they could have asked the responding officers to enforce their trespass. And then had he still refused to leave, the officers could have cited him with trespass.

But, somehow, I really don't see it ever playing out that way. (A lifetime ban from Simon Group properties is, sadly, conceivable, though.)

 

[chipbennett]

I've carried in the mall, but no one knows. Shhhh.

I don't go to malls without carrying. Especially malls that put up idiotic "no guns" signs.
