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?
