Yesterday's News Today

I didn't post last week, so I got behind on the shooting in Texas, but here are a couple of great links.

• SayUncle - David Hernandez Arroyo shot several people at a courthouse in Texas. A Texan named Mark Wilson was present and heard the shots. Wilson, who has a concealed carry permit, drew his gun and attacked Arroyo. Arroyo was wearing armor and killed Wilson, but Wilson's sacrifice saved at least one person's life.
• Geekwitha45 - Pictures of the Wilson memorial service and Tyler, Texas.
