4 shot in Cleveland, Texas, including sheriff's deputy

Source: CNN

(CNN)A Liberty County sheriff's deputy and three other people were shot Wednesday at two locations in Cleveland, Texas, the county sheriff's office said. The incident started with a shooting at a plumbing company along Highway 321 in Cleveland, where deputies found a dead woman, said Capt. Ken DeFoor, a sheriff's spokesman. Two others were shot and their conditions are unknown. A deputy followed the suspect and, as he pulled into a veterinary clinic parking lot down the road, gunshots were exchanged, DeFoor said. The deputy was shot in the neck and was life-flighted to a hospital in Houston in stable condition.

The media should just give up reporting on these shootings in gun humper states, because nothing ever changes. What we need to see is a gun humper shoot family members of the Governor or Senators.

Blow some AR15 holes in the wife and kids of Cornyn or Cruz or Abbott, then something positive may occur. Until then, shooting your everyday sheriff or civilian means nothing in gun humperville.
