The Truth About Guns

“I’m just a citizen trying to help an officer out. That’s what I was tryin’
to do.” That’s what Vic Stacy had to say while deflecting attempts to call him a
hero.
Stacy came to the aid of Sgt. Steven Means of the Early, TX PD who came under
fire from Charles Conner. According to ktxs.com, Conner had already murdered two
neighbors and their dogs before opening fire on the officer as he arrived on the
scene.
When Stacy saw Sgt. Means couldn’t get a good shot at Conner, he feared the
cop would be the third (well, fifth) victim of the afternoon. So Stacy opened up
with his own gun, hitting him in the thigh and knocking him down.
Conner’s now in a morgue somewhere after Means and Stacy
ventilated him sufficiently to end the threat. We know at least one cop
who’s glad firearms aren’t restricted to police and the military.
