Law-Abiding West Virginian Woman With Concealed Firearm Stops A Mass Shooting
Instead of waiting for the police to arrive, a woman with a concealed carry license in West Virginia acted fast to stop a crazed man with an AR-15-style rifle who was about to kill dozens of people at a graduation party.
“Instead of running from the threat, she engaged with the threat and saved several lives last night,” Charleston Police Department Chief of Detectives Tony Hazelett told local news WCHSTV.
The incident occurred Wednesday when Dennis Butler,37, was angered by a group of people hosting a graduation party who told him to slow down through an apartment complex in Charleston. He returned 30 minutes later, parked his vehicle, jumped in the backseat, and discharged his weapon toward the group of 30-40 people.
Unbeknownst to the shooter, a law-abiding citizen with a CCW was within the group and quickly drew her weapon and engaged Bulter with direct fire, fatally wounding him.
“There was a graduation party, a party with kids,” Hazelett said at a press conference. “So obviously somebody just graduated high school and another birthday party. We could have had a casualty shooting there.” He estimated between 30 to 40 people attended the parties.
There were no injuries reported besides the gunman. Police have yet to release the woman’s name, though they said she’s not part of law enforcement and is just an average law-abiding citizen.
Charleston police discuss the incident.
So a good woman with a gun prevents a bad person with evil intentions and an extensive criminal record from committing a mass shooting. Should society consider her a hero for saving the lives of dozens of people?

There’s no apostrophe.
It’s AR-15s
But, Ilhan Omar wouldn’t know that because the average IQ in Somalia where she comes from is 69.
Import the third world.
Elect the third world.
Become the third world.

AR-15’s what? What is it that they possess that we need to ban? Ban useless shits from the middle east who marry their brothers to stay legally in this country and then get elected to Congress where they help destroy America.
Deport Ilhan Omar and her compatriots…a winning campaign slogan!
If we had a representative government, seditious cunts like this would be deported.
Would be executed! FIFY
I would marry her if she wasn’t already married to her ” Brother”
Fact : When seconds count the police are just minutes away !
Fact: Only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy or gal with a gun !
Seems relatively simple , safe & effective !
Consequently the leftist assholes will have a problem with it meaning they would prefer an innocent body count to regurgitate 24/7 to promote their true agenda . Make everyone defenseless sheeple bowing to government !
Or hours away.
Did the copfuk have anything interesting to say? (I refuse to take 12 minutes of my time to listen to a copfuk!). Yes, that woman is actually a real hero.
In today’s NJ Shit Ledger, on the page reserved for violent crimes (usually the entire page), is a short story about one high school student attacking another high school student with an “edged weapon”. Apparently it is no longer kosher in this shithole state to say “knife”.
And on the front fucking page the main story is that there is “concern” whether or not there will be enough Sweet Mary Jane (NJ just made recreational marijuana legal) to go around this holiday weekend … especially for folks going to the shore. Supply chain issues and shit. Not to worry though. The CRC (Cannabis Regulatory Commission) — yes, this shithole state has yet another new government agency — is all over this like stink on shit. They are the True Heroes today!!
It’s a grade 9-12 day prison. It may have just been a shiv and not actually a knife in any traditional sense.
Victim of a white nazi shooter, Dennis Butler,37, aspiring to better his community and a strong family supporter was shot down before realizing his dreams of being a community organizer, after his idol BO.
A memorial and go fund me page is being set up for the victim and his near family.
/s ( in case some miss it)
This story should be sent to the COWARD PIGS in Texas who allowed children to be MURDERED while they arrested unarmed parents trying to save their children.
Remember…… these the PIGS the democrat party is going to send to force vaxx us and take our guns ?
Amen sister
You go girl
Show the po-po how it’s done.
Run towards the threat and eliminate it!
She’d never qualify for any police academy…she cares too much about the lives of others.
Memory holed by MSM in 3..2..1
Of course it probably won’t even be mentioned to begin with.
Of course this never made the MSM news.
These gun stories are getting ridiculous, you never hear of ghetto heroes stopping gangbangers lol. Always so absurd sounding , totally unrealistic. Reinstate the Smith Mundt act.
So, how many years is she looking at?
That’s what I call “gun control”. Of course, the politicians will lament another “Ef bee eye” human resource loss.
Must not have felt like giving him a sportin’ chance?
Wow!
Aside from the fact that won’t make the national news, at a time when we need it most, that makes me (more) proud to be from WV.
I just returned from my niece and nephew’s HS graduation party at the local VFW which, ironically, has a no firearms sign on the door. I was asked by a friend what I was carrying and if I always did.
Springfield Arms Hellcat OSP (an awesome rig) and yes.
And this story is exactly why I ignore those signs.
In their defense, I believe the restriction is due to the video lottery machines they have on sight. Obviously not enforced but CYA for the license.
Who proofreads?
“Site”
Just claim auto correct. Or Not. We got enough people here already. Hope that traitor manchin stays in davos.
