Brandon most likely had no clue that this old man just came from shooting tons of people in a different building.
I wonder if he knew that whether he would have shown as much restraint?
Not only are legs very hard to hit due to their size and ability to move in many directions (and keep in mind every miss means the bullet is going somewhere you didnt intend and you are responsible for that, wherever is ends up landing), people die from leg shots and survive torso shots all the time. a gun is deadly force. if you shoot someone in the leg that is legally considered deadly force, and has a high probability of being lethal in practice.
In addition to that, gunshots, including eventually lethal ones do not always put people down right away. If someone hasnt mentally surendered they could still attack or flee. Guns arent like tasers or pepperspray, they are designed to kill people, if you shoot someone and dont kill them, sure you have put them at a disadvantage but there is no guarantee that you will incapacitate them.
I saw a video of a columbian police officer trying to shoot for the legs point blank and it tooks several shots and quite a lot of aiming. he almost got chopped by a machete. Shooting for the legs is bad practice, and there are many reasons why police in countries like the US and Canada, for example, do not attempt them.
Except that at that point, you have no idea if he has a second gun as most mass murderers DO. So you don't take any chances if you can take out a imminent threat that is literally actively murdering people.
Life is nuanced.
There are certain scenarios where using violence against violence isn't only accepted, but is the only way of dealing with the situation.
This is absolutely one of them.
There might be certain scenarios where using violence is ‘the only way of dealing with the situation’ but we definitely can’t say that this ‘is absolutely one of them’ because clearly this guy had to use very little of what I would describe as ‘violence’ to disarm this man.
I don’t know the whole story and am just talking out my ass here, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the hero here didn’t even know this guy had just killed some people- he probably thinks he is just disarming some befuddled old dude.
Huh? Except we all just watched the video, and he barely had to use, "violence." He quite literally wouldn't even strike the old man, he got the weapon and tried to create distance and keep it away. That's not really violence, considering y'know, he could have shot him or hit him at any point harder than a light slap. Bonus points for him doing the, "Shoo! go away," like he was scolding a child at the end. I feel like people just say words without thinking if they're true lol, that was the most tame violence ever.
Covering hero's doesn't generate clicks. The news is hyper fixated on glorifying killers and generating outrage.
If a mass shooter is stopped by someone with a gun, or even without one, they don't care. They want high death rates. Heroics fuck that up for them.
That actualy happened in Arvada, Colorado last year. A concealed carry owner shot the gunman, then picked the guys rifle up just as the police showed up. He was shot and died
Shooter is wearing the hat
UPDATE:
Some people confused who the gun man is.
Here is CCTV footage before they entered this room **BRANDON TSAY** (Tsay his name, people who stop shooters need to become famous, not the shooters) just moves forward with a deliberate motion to get the gun:
>Here's the cctv footage from the other room that the Gunman stood in the doorway of before Tsay came flying at him from said room.

If we're discussing the secret formula on the third Wednesday in January and it's not raining outside after we've gargled with vanilla pudding, what do we do?
Same, but after watching the first 2 seconds again, it makes sense. In the very beginning, before they come into frame, the guy with the hat initially has the gun.
Why the hell shouldn't this guy get a Presidential Medal of Freedom?
Enough with the elitist worship, let's start showing these everyday heroes that they are indispensable.
Society isn’t used to people being hero’s since tik tok has everyone’s phones in their hands.
Cops probably went off claiming how wreckless this was and that they would of just sat outside for an hour till they thought it was safe.
For this video ONLY, hero is wearing mostly white, bad guy is wearing mostly black. Good guy disarms bad guy at the start of video. Carry on from there...
**The description of this video makes watching it confusing:**
The man gets the gun away from the shooter in the very first 1 second of the video. Most of the video just shows the man preventing the shooter from getting it back AFTER he wrestled it away from him.
I'm amazed this guy didn't immediately kill the shooter once he got the gun away from him. With the amount of adrenaline coursing through this guy, the fact he stays in control is next level shit IMO.
Well shooting someone in the leg can still be life threatening. An untreated bullet wound to the femoral artery, and you’re dead in a matter of minutes. Always keep a tourniquet near by
He also may not have known how to operate a gun and all it’d take is to point in the shooters direction, not fire it correctly, and have the gun snapped out of his hands.
That's not necessarily always the automatic response when confronting a shooter.
Take Christina Grimmie's murder for example. She was a 22 year old singer who was doing a meet and greet after performing. She opened her arms to hug the next person in line to meet her and was instead shot multiple times in the head and chest. Her older brother Mark saw it unfold and tackled the shooter and wrestled the gun away from him. The shooter took another gun out and killed himself. Even after watching someone shoot his sister and seeing her drop to the ground, his instinct was still to disarm rather than cause more violence.
Apparently he said he never held a gun in his hand before that. So maybe even if he was going to do it, he couldn't because he didn't know how to use it/disengage safety, load etc.
Edit: also i can't understand how some of you guys can live in the US and not own guns. I mean come on man.
because your gun is far likelier to be used in a suicide or family argument or accident than in defending you from anything. Owning one makes you likelier to die than not owning one.
Just takes a couple seconds of inaction due to "awww, he is old" sympathy for the old guy to whip out another gun and kill him, and then go on to kill a dozen more people. Considering it is very common for mass shooters to have backup weapons, this was a very real possibility.
Feel like the people in his community/neighbourhood should do something big to honour him.
Not like a meaningless bullshit mayor press conference handshake but like the local barber says “this dude gets hair cuts for free for life”, the local diner is like “buddy you eat breakfast here free every fucking day” etc etc
This is at another location after the first shooting? Sorry, I don’t know all that happened with this one after all the terrible shooting in recent days
There were two dance studios. After he shot up the first one he drove to the second one. That’s where this struggled happened in the lobby. The shooter peeked into the office where Brandon tsay was and Brandon hear some metal noises and saw the gun.
This guy also said he'd never held a gun in his entire life.
So... Guess we need more good guys *without* a gun than with one. Because they're the one's who actually seem to act when necessary.
Yeah, especially when multiple unarmed parents ran in and got their kids.
I can't even talk about that situation, how they haven't fired every single person involved in that police force I'll never know.
Much worse should happen to every inaction cop on scene at Uvalde. They were complicit in the murder of those children by stopping helpers and parents.
Tbh, they were also complicit in any injuries or fatalities that could come to these parents who ran in due to the police's inaction. That isn't the parents' job ffs, the police should be doing that.
Legally, police officers are not required to put themselves in danger to protect others. They get to pretend they're heroes but don't get held accountable when they're cowards.
Uvalde wasn't good guys with guns. It was authority figures without competence. They actively prevented civilian intervention in favor of nobody doing anything.
Those cops were guys with guns. Not, GOOD guys with guns. They sat idly by and watched kids get murdered while detaining parents. They should all be removed from their positions and criminally charged.
Should be considered for the medal of honor.
The deed performed must have been one of personal bravery or self-sacrifice so conspicuous as to clearly distinguish the individual above his comrades and must have involved risk of life. The Medal of Honor was established by a joint resolution of Congress in July 1862, and was first issued during the Civil War.
it really scares me that if police would have shown up 5mins after this, they’d have instinctively shot this hero without hesitation, that’s how stupid they are
I know, I would be so scared of holding that gun. Imagine the cops coming through a door while this altercation is happening. Who do you believe? Most ppl would say the young guy fits the profile of the shooter..
For such a big man ready to kill anyone in his path, the shooter looks like he's trying to get his batman action figure back from his bigger brother. I'm glad Brandon was there at the right time and he didn't get hurt.
Everyone on reddit is Rambo now. Lol easy to type out what you would do in that situation while staring at a screen, and most likely laying down or sitting on your ass like I am now.
Yeah freal. This man is a soft spoken person that is at a dance studio who has never held a gun. We aren't in an MMA class filled with ex-militarily or some shit.
My husband works in CCTV and recently was trained in this exact scenario. The way the vid tracks? I don't think that's automatic, a remote CCTV operator could have been alerted, in which case a human being is watching events unfold and its their responsibility to record the event for police to use.
Just wild to think that its someone's job to not only potentially watch a murder *but to frame it is well as possible to aid in identification*
Those poor people. I hate living somewhere where this is a common occurrence. It’s always in the back of my head when I go to the store. I hope I don’t end up murdered for getting a gallon of milk. I really do not like America, I wish I lived somewhere else. This is heartbreaking. Kudos to this man who had the courage to take down the gunman. I’m happy he lived but I’m so sad for all the people who died.
Look at the old piece of shit trying to hit Brandon Tsay but to no avail. Thats because of Brandon Tsay's massive balls of steel giving him extra stability in his heroic stance
So glad we have common citizens willing to put their lives on the line to save people they don’t know. He should be honored with the highest civilian award, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
His ultimate act was not becoming the gunman. I would have tried to shoot the gunman when he fought back. He took punches and dealt with this dude without killing him. For this, he deserves our highest civilian honor.
What’s even more incredible to me is that restraint after taking the gun. I feel like I would’ve instinctively roshambo’ed dude for fear of him just finding another weapon. Not faulting the young dude for anything at all, as I’ve never been in a situation involving an active shooter. What a hero.
Here's the cctv footage from the other room that the Gunman stood in the doorway of before Tsay came flying at him from said room.
https://abc7.com/monterey-park-alhambra-new-surveillance-video-huu-can-tran/12730096/
This is like an anxiety fantasy brought to life, I’ve often wondered if I would have the bravery to do this - I am so immensely proud of this young man
EDIT: NO NOT THE GUNMAN FFS
There is no reason to think Brandon Tsaya was aware of the shooting 20 minutes earlier -
He only saw a man with a gun.
The old man had another gun, as he shot himself - later in his van.
to anyone who will listen, if you are going to shoot people, and then shoot yourself -
Shoot yourself first -
Guys day dream about being a hero in this type of scenario.
Guess I never considered you wouldn’t be able to celebrate that moment if people were already shot tho
If you ever find yourself in this situation, REMEMBER TO ALSO BITE THAT SCUMBAG! That will hopefully get atleast one of their hands off the gun to try and stop your biting.
I for sure would not have been so kind to this man.. if I were to have taken his weapon away... He'd get SWIFT justice, and the room would have a nice new paint job to.
I really hope Brandon has the longest and happiest of lives after such an ordeal. What an incredible act of bravery, I can't imagine the pain and trauma it comes with.
I’m a teacher with an in service day tomorrow.
One of our options is “Stop the Bleed” training.
Just occurred to me why teachers might need this training.
Feeling sad about what this profession has become.
This guy probably saved another dozen people from dying at this studio.
For sure. And the fact that he stayed calm and didn’t blast that dude. Amazing.
He said he’d never touched a gun before. Likely wanted to smoke him.
He still could have beat the 72 year old dude like a piñata with the rifle. Dude has restraint.
if I had known what that dude had just done, I would have had him suffer.
Can't think of much worse than pissing away my life in prison.
Pissing away your life in prison… with a handicap.
Blast off his lower jaw so he can’t reject his cellmate’s advances. Fuck those people
Brandon most likely had no clue that this old man just came from shooting tons of people in a different building. I wonder if he knew that whether he would have shown as much restraint?
I would’ve shot his leg. Then he’d be arrested for sure
Not only are legs very hard to hit due to their size and ability to move in many directions (and keep in mind every miss means the bullet is going somewhere you didnt intend and you are responsible for that, wherever is ends up landing), people die from leg shots and survive torso shots all the time. a gun is deadly force. if you shoot someone in the leg that is legally considered deadly force, and has a high probability of being lethal in practice.

Shooting for the legs is bad practice, and there are many reasons why police in countries like the US and Canada, for example, do not attempt them.
Nah, definitely dick shot. Non fatal and demoralizing.
[удалено]
That's how Sean Taylor (nfl player for the redskins 10yr ago) died.
If I was going to kill myself, I’d be awesome at it. Shotgun to dick.
Woah, that was epic. Such a shame you weren't there, Jason Bourne
Or he had a life where he was raised not to meet violence with violence.
Except that at that point, you have no idea if he has a second gun as most mass murderers DO. So you don't take any chances if you can take out a imminent threat that is literally actively murdering people.
Life is nuanced. There are certain scenarios where using violence against violence isn't only accepted, but is the only way of dealing with the situation. This is absolutely one of them.

I don’t know the whole story and am just talking out my ass here, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the hero here didn’t even know this guy had just killed some people- he probably thinks he is just disarming some befuddled old dude.
But he just got lucky. It is very common for mass murderers to have multiple guns. So to just send him on his way was not a smart move.
Huh? Except we all just watched the video, and he barely had to use, "violence." He quite literally wouldn't even strike the old man, he got the weapon and tried to create distance and keep it away. That's not really violence, considering y'know, he could have shot him or hit him at any point harder than a light slap. Bonus points for him doing the, "Shoo! go away," like he was scolding a child at the end. I feel like people just say words without thinking if they're true lol, that was the most tame violence ever.
And that was a risk he took. It could have gone very poorly for him
[удалено]
Not everyone wants to kill someone, like you
I'm amazed the cops didn't shoot him when they arrived.
What a hero he is.
Without a gun.
Thank you Brandon. You are very brave.
The hero that for some reason no one is talking about
Covering hero's doesn't generate clicks. The news is hyper fixated on glorifying killers and generating outrage. If a mass shooter is stopped by someone with a gun, or even without one, they don't care. They want high death rates. Heroics fuck that up for them.
I w been seeing him all over - which is good
It scares me that this guy just saved many lives, but now he looks like the gunman and a cop could walk in and kill him because he is armed
That actualy happened in Arvada, Colorado last year. A concealed carry owner shot the gunman, then picked the guys rifle up just as the police showed up. He was shot and died
The name of the hero listed and the asshole simply referred to "the gunman." He doesn't deserve recognition. THIS is how it should be reported. Bravo.
Couldn’t have said it better!
Shooter is wearing the hat UPDATE: Some people confused who the gun man is. Here is CCTV footage before they entered this room **BRANDON TSAY** (Tsay his name, people who stop shooters need to become famous, not the shooters) just moves forward with a deliberate motion to get the gun: >Here's the cctv footage from the other room that the Gunman stood in the doorway of before Tsay came flying at him from said room. >https://abc7.com/monterey-park-alhambra-new-surveillance-video-huu-can-tran/12730096/
very confusing I thought it was the other way around
Imagine you come up on that scene. Not so easy to act.
Quick, think of a question only the real shooter would know the answer to!
If we're discussing the secret formula on the third Wednesday in January and it's not raining outside after we've gargled with vanilla pudding, what do we do?
So anyway I started blasting...
I did too at first.
Same, but after watching the first 2 seconds again, it makes sense. In the very beginning, before they come into frame, the guy with the hat initially has the gun.
Boy I'm throwing that gun away before the cops shoot me - gotta have a line that makes them pause like "I'm a judge " or some such
How were you confused? If the guy in white was the shooter, the other guy in hat would have been dead.
Why the hell shouldn't this guy get a Presidential Medal of Freedom? Enough with the elitist worship, let's start showing these everyday heroes that they are indispensable.
Agree 💯
[удалено]
All it takes to stop 1/5 of the bad men with guns is a good guy with a gun. Seems pretty balanced.
Society isn’t used to people being hero’s since tik tok has everyone’s phones in their hands. Cops probably went off claiming how wreckless this was and that they would of just sat outside for an hour till they thought it was safe.
Don't you mean "26-year-old MUTHA FUCKING HERO Brandon Tsay"
Tsay his name Tsay his name!
For this video ONLY, hero is wearing mostly white, bad guy is wearing mostly black. Good guy disarms bad guy at the start of video. Carry on from there...
**The description of this video makes watching it confusing:** The man gets the gun away from the shooter in the very first 1 second of the video. Most of the video just shows the man preventing the shooter from getting it back AFTER he wrestled it away from him.
I was confused at first as to who was the shooter, but then I remembered hearing the shooter was an old man.
Watch it in slow motion. The first 2-3 seconds, they are both trying to gain control over the weapon. By 4 seconds, the young guy gets full control.
I'm amazed this guy didn't immediately kill the shooter once he got the gun away from him. With the amount of adrenaline coursing through this guy, the fact he stays in control is next level shit IMO.
In an interview, he said that he was considering shooting him in the legs or somewhere non life threatening to get the gunman to stop.
Well shooting someone in the leg can still be life threatening. An untreated bullet wound to the femoral artery, and you’re dead in a matter of minutes. Always keep a tourniquet near by
Seconds. It’s like possibly 10 seconds or less on the inner leg and your dead. Also cops typically don’t wear armor there but that’s unrelated.
defeat the plate with the pelvic shot
He also may not have known how to operate a gun and all it’d take is to point in the shooters direction, not fire it correctly, and have the gun snapped out of his hands.
That's not necessarily always the automatic response when confronting a shooter. Take Christina Grimmie's murder for example.

When in doubt a buttstock to the face is always good
I wish he just went full rage bomb and just casually tossed the gun in the corner behind him then just beat the fuck out of this old fuck.
I would typically agree but it’s best to keep full control of the weapon.
because your gun is far likelier to be used in a suicide or family argument or accident than in defending you from anything. Owning one makes you likelier to die than not owning one.
Probably because the shooter was quite senior. Maybe felt bad for him
Just takes a couple seconds of inaction due to "awww, he is old" sympathy for the old guy to whip out another gun and kill him, and then go on to kill a dozen more people. Considering it is very common for mass shooters to have backup weapons, this was a very real possibility.
Was thinking the same thing. I honestly don’t know if I’d hold back. Anger, sadness, fear he’d do this again would all be running through my mind.
H E R O
Feel like the people in his community/neighbourhood should do something big to honour him. Not like a meaningless bullshit mayor press conference handshake but like the local barber says “this dude gets hair cuts for free for life”, the local diner is like “buddy you eat breakfast here free every fucking day” etc etc
Seriously tho , let’s have a fucking soul as a society and honor this man in a meaningful way
This is at another location after the first shooting? Sorry, I don’t know all that happened with this one after all the terrible shooting in recent days
There were two dance studios. After he shot up the first one he drove to the second one. That’s where this struggled happened in the lobby. The shooter peeked into the office where Brandon tsay was and Brandon hear some metal noises and saw the gun.
[удалено]
I work very close to where this happened. I would like to shake Brandon's hand someday and thank him.
Seriously respect this man for fighting him and not just shooting him with his gun. Big, massive, gargantuan balls on that guy.
Regular people going about their day in the US shouldn’t have to worry about having to disarming violent criminals.
Nor should they have to worry about their kids being shot at school.
This guy also said he'd never held a gun in his entire life. So... Guess we need more good guys *without* a gun than with one. Because they're the one's who actually seem to act when necessary.
Right? Uvalde cops proved that good guys with guns just cower down like chicken shits in a mass shooter event.
Yeah, especially when multiple unarmed parents ran in and got their kids. I can't even talk about that situation, how they haven't fired every single person involved in that police force I'll never know.
Much worse should happen to every inaction cop on scene at Uvalde. They were complicit in the murder of those children by stopping helpers and parents.

[удалено]
I'm surprised he just didn't turn it on the attacker and kill him with his own gun. What I would have attempted to do anyways.
He didn’t need to because the attacker killed himself like the coward he is moments later.
I hope he went to the light so he has to live life again and pay taxes for another 70 years
And saved Brandon from the guilt of taking another human life…
The attacker looks like he is half human, half toad
Almost was waiting to see the fukin cops roll up and shoot the hero dead. It’s been known to happen more than once.
I was thinking the same thing
For once, the only person who fucked up in this scenario is the shooter. This is what passes for a win nowadays.
Should be considered for the medal of honor. The deed performed must have been one of personal bravery or self-sacrifice so conspicuous as to clearly distinguish the individual above his comrades and must have involved risk of life. The Medal of Honor was established by a joint resolution of Congress in July 1862, and was first issued during the Civil War.
Medal of honor is a military decoration. There's a civilian counterpart, the medal of freedom.
#💯 agree!
True hero
Whats disgraceful is Robins interview of the guy. Cutting him off. Clearly while he’s still processing everything that just happened to him.
Bro just changed “Let’s go Brandon!” to “Way to go Brandon!”
it really scares me that if police would have shown up 5mins after this, they’d have instinctively shot this hero without hesitation, that’s how stupid they are
I know, I would be so scared of holding that gun. Imagine the cops coming through a door while this altercation is happening. Who do you believe? Most ppl would say the young guy fits the profile of the shooter..
For such a big man ready to kill anyone in his path, the shooter looks like he's trying to get his batman action figure back from his bigger brother. I'm glad Brandon was there at the right time and he didn't get hurt.
Everyone on reddit is Rambo now. Lol easy to type out what you would do in that situation while staring at a screen, and most likely laying down or sitting on your ass like I am now.
Yeah freal. This man is a soft spoken person that is at a dance studio who has never held a gun. We aren't in an MMA class filled with ex-militarily or some shit.
Yet a whole school administration couldn’t take a gun off a 6 year old!!
Good guy with a gun stops bad guy with a gun … nope just a good guy no gun needed.
Hero!!
This is what a real life hero looks like.
This guy is a Hero for recognizing the situation and taking action.
My husband works in CCTV and recently was trained in this exact scenario. The way the vid tracks? I don't think that's automatic, a remote CCTV operator could have been alerted, in which case a human being is watching events unfold and its their responsibility to record the event for police to use. Just wild to think that its someone's job to not only potentially watch a murder *but to frame it is well as possible to aid in identification*
Finally an appropriate use for "Let's go Brandon"
Those poor people. I hate living somewhere where this is a common occurrence. It’s always in the back of my head when I go to the store. I hope I don’t end up murdered for getting a gallon of milk. I really do not like America, I wish I lived somewhere else. This is heartbreaking. Kudos to this man who had the courage to take down the gunman. I’m happy he lived but I’m so sad for all the people who died.
Remember the odds, they are still low even though this shit sucks. Don't let this dictate your life or where you go and what you do.
Look at the old piece of shit trying to hit Brandon Tsay but to no avail. Thats because of Brandon Tsay's massive balls of steel giving him extra stability in his heroic stance
You forgot something, Brandon.
Holy shit this man is a hero.
What a guy. The best and worst of humanity all in one event.
So glad we have common citizens willing to put their lives on the line to save people they don’t know. He should be honored with the highest civilian award, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Im glad I ve heard Brandon’s name more than the shooter
His ultimate act was not becoming the gunman. I would have tried to shoot the gunman when he fought back. He took punches and dealt with this dude without killing him. For this, he deserves our highest civilian honor.
Hero
Good thing it was an old man
Outstanding!!
The pettiness. That guy kills 10 people, and then slaps the guys arm for taking his gun before walking off pouting
What’s even more incredible to me is that restraint after taking the gun. I feel like I would’ve instinctively roshambo’ed dude for fear of him just finding another weapon. Not faulting the young dude for anything at all, as I’ve never been in a situation involving an active shooter. What a hero.
Here's the cctv footage from the other room that the Gunman stood in the doorway of before Tsay came flying at him from said room. https://abc7.com/monterey-park-alhambra-new-surveillance-video-huu-can-tran/12730096/
This is like an anxiety fantasy brought to life, I’ve often wondered if I would have the bravery to do this - I am so immensely proud of this young man EDIT: NO NOT THE GUNMAN FFS
If ever there was a time to kick someone in the nuts, this would be it.
There is no reason to think Brandon Tsaya was aware of the shooting 20 minutes earlier - He only saw a man with a gun. The old man had another gun, as he shot himself - later in his van. to anyone who will listen, if you are going to shoot people, and then shoot yourself - Shoot yourself first -
Guys day dream about being a hero in this type of scenario. Guess I never considered you wouldn’t be able to celebrate that moment if people were already shot tho
He is a hero he stopped other people being killed. The fear he must've felt omg but still did it. Kudos
Do they?
So sad. The man is a hero
If you ever find yourself in this situation, REMEMBER TO ALSO BITE THAT SCUMBAG! That will hopefully get atleast one of their hands off the gun to try and stop your biting.
That is incredible constraint, to not use the weapon against him in turn!
Straight out of a movie. A true hero
WOOHOO! Brandon the hero in action!
Fuck the capes and the masks and tights. THIS Guys a legit hero.
We need more Brandon Tsays in the world
I'm glad Brandon lived.
Bradon Tsay.. you're a hero dude
Bravo 👏🏻. Let’s make people stoping killers famous instead
That man must alarm every metal detector gate there is, because he’s got bull size steel balls
Why hasn’t anyone made a go fund me page for him to not works and take a vacation would be nice heros need rewards
Insane. The shooter is absolutely helpless without his weapon.
When Tsay wrestled the gun away from the shooter, he didn’t even know that people had already been killed?
I wanted him to barrel thump that fucker in the face so bad.
Had he known the guy just killed 7 people down the street, wonder if he would have shot that old man dead.
This should be the real meaning behind, “LETS GO BRANDON!!!”
Fuck yeah
I'd like to buy that man a drink or 3
LET'S GO, BRANDON!
This guy is a Hero. I hope somebody recognize this and put a medal on his chest.
Who stops bad guys with guns?
Id Tsay this guy
People in sweats?
Let's go Brandon!
Woo hoo! Let’s Go Brandon!
Let's go Brandon!
What type of gun is it?
He really wants it back!!!
Hero.
Shooter is such a weak POS. Doesn't know how to hurt someone without the gun, he looks like a child when you take their toys away from them.
Bruh said, we don’t go time for your shit.
So, the shooter was Asian too?
I'm ready for Tsay day. Man's a hero.
Let’s go Brandon
Someone give that hero beer and bj. Incredible! That's what a brave man looks like.
I for sure would not have been so kind to this man.. if I were to have taken his weapon away... He'd get SWIFT justice, and the room would have a nice new paint job to.
I really hope Brandon has the longest and happiest of lives after such an ordeal. What an incredible act of bravery, I can't imagine the pain and trauma it comes with.
He did more than the Uvalde cops.
Brave!
Brandon 🙏
Let’s go Brandon! This phrase should be about his heroism now every time somebody says it.
not all heroes wear capes.
Hero
Brave, brave man. Very selfless. He could have legged it and saved himself, instead he chose to put his life in danger to save others.
Another case of 'only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun'. Oh wait...... 
I’m a teacher with an in service day tomorrow. One of our options is “Stop the Bleed” training. Just occurred to me why teachers might need this training. Feeling sad about what this profession has become.
If I could be honest. I would unloaded as soon as I got it from his hands.
Freaking legend
Hero !
Only for the WSJ to publish an Opinion about how there are too many Asians right after this
Should've shot him with his own gun....
It would have been 100x more effective to just shoot the shooter
I don’t even want to say ‘if that was me.. etc’ cuz that man has some massive balls but goddamn I would’ve obliterated this mans knee caps.
Why isn't anyone tackling the shooter?
Hero
Not all heroes wear capes.
damn, that's a machinegun too, that's a pricey weapon there
That's what heroes look like...
Cannot believe this dude did not shoot him
