This story isn't making the news although it should.
Charleston, West Virginia, 5/25/22
On Wednesday evening a family was having a birthday-graduation party with 40 people in attendance. Dennis Butler drove through the neighborhood and was confronted and warned about speeding down the street because children were present. He left the area and returned later with an AR style rifle and began shooting at the party goers. A woman attending the party and was armed, as a lawful conceal carry holder. She immediately engaged the shooter, striking him several times and he died at the scene. Nobody at the part was struck. This woman stopped a mass shooting (by definition) from happening, but the news networks will not carry the story.
Dennis Butler was a convicted felon and therefore prohibited from having firearms.

The woman is a hero and should be applauded. Unfortunately her actions did not fit the narrative that news wants to present so they ignored it. Sad.
