In reply to the discussion: Man who opened fire on Texas church shooter hailed as 'good Samaritan' [View all]GaryCnf
(1,399 posts)I ask not because I am claiming it doesn't count if he missed (so don't try to spin it that way). I am asking because his intent in firing toward the neighbor matters and his relative success inside the church (and the fact that he appears to have killed at least one specifically-intended target - because, as we know from Las Vegas, crowded areas make it easier to hit non-specific targets) indicates that he at least knew which end was the muzzle.
Fleeing shows nothing more than that he chose not to die at that place. It shows nothing about what else he planned to do.
The most telling piece of evidence. The one your narrative seems desperate to ignore if that Kelley, still armed, still in body armor, still behind a barrier, shot himself instead of the "good Samaritan."
What is sad is that YOUR political agenda demands you fantasize about Kelley scouring the countryside like the random killers the NRA tries to convince potential customers are waiting outside their front door.
