Tower

There was a show on Public TV tonight about the mass shooting in Texas from the tower. It has lots of interviews with people actually involved in the incdient along with cartoon characterizations of things that happened which were not captured on film.

It is very worthwhile and well done.

It does not make any political points on the merits or debits of gun ownership.

Apparently a lot of folks came out of the surrounding town with their hunting rifles. The police really did not have any snipers and eventually a handful of officers went up in the tower and took out the gunman with pistols and shotguns.

The people involved in it all were so very very genuine and brave.
