"The responding men and women displayed a tremendous amount of courage during this incident, I am grateful to them all," Loftis said.

The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.

  Hinton said that when she stepped outside, she pointed a gun at deputies so four deputies returned fire, firing 18 shots while the other deputies took cover.
