Wow! Just like the Democrats said Covid is still increasing the crime rate. Get vaccinated Killeen!

Think Killeen is up to 6 murders so far this calendar year. Does not include SD shootings and drivebys where no one was killed.

Yet another reason to be cremated and sprinkled in the ocean. Like I needed another reason. Tragic.

Killeen has been going on like this for a while. Don't forget that Ft. Hood is in Killeen (well in and around it) and is infamous for the deaths of soldiers there, several of whom were killed during off-post activity in town.

Wasn't Killeen the birthplace of the CHL in Texas. Guy walked around a furs killing people as they hid in terror.

When I was there in late 60's early 70s' on payday weekend there was not much you could not buy on Ave D just about anything you could afford then also the ladies in the RVs' from Austin with their monthly showing of wares for sale. Police even blocked off Ave D from vehicles.

That was it. I remember that case being brought up as an argument in favor of concealed carry.

If I remember a woman whose parents were murdered said she had a gun in her car. Spoke before the law makers saying she wished she could have legally had it with her and saved her parents rather than playing dead. We owe her a lot.

“The Texas State Rifle Association and others preferred that the state allow its citizens to carry concealed weapons.[21] Democratic governor Ann Richards vetoed such bills, but in 1995 her Republican successor, George W. Bush, signed one into force.[23] The law had been campaigned for by Suzanna Hupp, who was present at the massacre; both of her parents, Alphonse "Al" Gratia and Ursula "Suzy" Gratia, were killed by Hennard.[24] She later testified that she would have liked to have had her .38 revolver,[10] but said, "It was a hundred feet away in my car." (She had feared that if she was caught carrying it she might lose her chiropractor's license.)[22] Hupp testified across the country in support of concealed handgun laws, and was elected to the Texas House of Representatives in 1996.[25]”

It was illegal at the time for her to even have it in her car. And despite her well documented appeals to the Texas legislature, it still took almost 5 years for the Texas CHL program to come into being in 1996. Had to get rid of Ann Richards as governor, and George Bush Jr. to become governor.
