THANK YOU, law enforcement. An armed man with bulletproof vest AND over 100 rounds of ammunition tried to enter my local Walmart today.

KTTS reported on the arrest tonight.
According to local citizen Bradley Cooper — the man was stopped by an off duty firefighter.
The armed man with a bulletproof vest was reportedly stopped and held at gunpoint by a firefighter until police arrived. Yet all the news will be fixated about is the shooter, and not the firefighter. The narrative MUST change.
