Maybe we should arm mental health workers.

safety when they disarm the patient. Geez. Thanks Abbott.

Thankfully they took her to jail and booked her in on, "deadly conduct and unlawful carrying of a weapon/places weapons prohibited, which is a class A misdemeanor."
Those misdemeanor charges will definitely teach her a lesson, but most importantly not infringe on her right to purchase future guns! Tragedy averted!

Must have only had the upper arms strapped. It's a trap!
Sheesh. They couldn't figure out she had a holster on her leg?
