Respectfully, Joker, because only bad guys carry their guns in the open and law abiding citizens hide them? Honestly, I think that's what we're down to in Texas. I don't point at you on that... It's just a commentary on reality. I find it aggravating. What you're suggesting, even if you're across the street, is obviously a good idea.

I'm not going to comment on what the media says here because most of these reports are absent of any real facts.

What I've learned about incidents like this is that we get a clear picture of what happened only if a camera gets pointed in direction of the incident. Otherwise we're never going to know.

My condolences to the family.
