If someone hears of and can verify any such fund, there should be no issue with posting the details in this thread.

WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT THE SHOOTING AT THE JEFFERSON GUN OUTLET.

A black male walked into the Jefferson Gun Outlet on Airline with a loaded, un-holstered gun which is strictly against the rules. When told to unload and/or turn over gun, he refused. An argument ensued and he started shooting, killing two. THREE DEAD AND TWO WOUNDED. The shooter was also killed by armed customers who heard the gunshots.

I just don't understand what would go through your mind as you're thinking about pulling the trigger on someone in a gun store maliciously. It has to be the worst possible place you could attempt to maliciously hurt someone due to the amount of arms and people in the area. The times I shopped there I was always impressed with thier customer service. Definitely good people there.

I can’t stop thinking about how sad and tragic this has been. The store is a short drive from my home in Mid-City. I don’t think we will ever be able to make any sense of this.
God have mercy!

The shooter had two small kids or a customer?

Sometimes I get too used to seeing the shootings on the local news. It happens in "bad areas" 2 or 3 per night. The names and the details of the shootings are rarely posted, but when it happens at places you've been, people you've interacted with it reminds you that evil does exist and can come at anytime. I pray that there will be peace for those who need it. Stay Safe.
