Yesterday morning at a church in Texas, a person stood up and began shooting before almost immediately being taken down by armed members of the congregation.

Sadly, two people were killed before the shooter was taken down, but the death toll could have been higher if there hadn’t been people in the congregation who were armed.
Beto O’Rourke is no longer running for president, but that hasn’t stopped him from rolling out his gun control talking points right on cue after a shooting:
So saddened to hear about another church shooting in Texas, this one in White Settlement near Fort Worth. Clearly what we are doing in Texas, what we are doing in this country, when it comes to guns is not working. https://t.co/krwcpL1lih

Does this guy even listen to himself?
The shooter was stopped within three seconds, preventing further carnage, by a law abiding citizen carrying a firearm. He is a hero. You are a moron. https://t.co/lRjTnWHkMM

A security guard with a gun stopped it, so clearly it is, furry. https://t.co/XM7QXpGmOo

Texas is doing it right – an armed member of the congregation stopped it. Maybe read the whole story, Beta.

O’Rourke won’t mention the whole story because it wrecks his narrative:
He was down in seconds. What's not working? https://t.co/rBDnUYKkjM

Didn't you hear that good guys with guns stop the threat?

B.S. – The law as changed just last Sept worked exactly as intended.
Churches, or places of worship, are now legally allowed to have armed
security and/or armed members present.In this instance they immediately shot and stopped a deranged person who may have killed many more. https://t.co/TkMbKS2dYx

If @BetoORourke had his way, no one else would have been armed except for the law-breaking murderer, and more people would have died. https://t.co/2IBXuLdXLH

You clearly didn't read that a good guy with a gun stopped the shooter.

If you had your way
He could have killed the whole congregationGo home & leave the policy to sentient beings https://t.co/tdBAJ3qXcx

Agreed. We need to repeal all of our gun laws. They're unconstitutional, and they put lives at risk.
The Left had its fun with this little experiment, but it's an abject failure. Let's pack it up now. https://t.co/8ESHXqDc4M

THE SHOOTING WAS STOPPED BY A PRIVATE GUN OWNER YOU ENORMOUS TOOL!
You lost two elections, have the decency to disappear already. https://t.co/Yh0YjcpNHI

One law-abiding citizen carrying a gun just stopped a massacre with one quick shot.
He turned out to be backed up by 8 or 9 more law-abiding citizens carrying guns.
Your desire to take guns away from those law-abiding citizens is what "is not working" and can never work.

O’Rourke can always be counted on to serve those up.
