A 22-year-old man was taken into police custody early Sunday morning after two heroic clubgoers tackled him to the ground to stop him from firing more rounds at a gay nightclub.
Five people died in the shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs Saturday night, and 18 others were injured.
Authorities say Anderson Lee Aldrich entered the gay club just before midnight and fired an unknown number of bullets from his AR-15-style long rifle before he was stopped by at least two 'heroic' patrons.
Early reports suggest the gunman was wearing bulletproof armor at the time.

Liberal, liberal, liberal.
That's CO.
Plenty of gun laws, too.
BUT very lax on follow thru.
This guy should NEVER have been allowed near a gun, legally.
And NO law-abiding gun owner should be lumped in with his criminality.
He was 50% the problem, the authorities of CO who should be protecting the people of CO are the other 50%.

Anyone else noticing a trend? Shootings and mass shootings are being done these days by teenagers and boys in their early 20's.
Kids are coming out of high school seriously damaged. Why is that? And before any new gun control legislation is passed, the above questions need to be answered.

In the old days a reporter would be going to the neighbors to get the scoop on his bomb making history, and his political leanings.

The rush to judgement on this is full swing on this sad event. Little is known but the speculation is off the charts.

Seems like all these mass shooters are “on authorities’ radar”. If you want carte blanche to commit mass murder, be sure to get on authorities’ radar first, then they will apparently leave you alone.

There’s a lot more to this love fest story regarding grooming children and transgender performance. Reporting is being filtered by corrupt media as usual. One only needs to read 2 Peter chapter 2. G-d will only allow so much.

A year and a half ago, he was charged with five felonies. Why was he still on the street?
I predict that, by the end of the week, we'll know three things about the suspect:
1. He shouldn't have been free.
2. He got the gun illegally.
3. He's a homosexual.

Blue cities and states have most strict gun laws but totally unenforced laws in the country. Another one on their radar for a bomb threat but not sequestered until after he goes bonkers. Yet J6 protestors who hurt no one, are locked up within days for over two years for trespassing! Blue voters are getting terrible karma for their ideological stubbornness.

They need to define what is meant by ‘on the authorities radar’. Not the first time we’ve heard this one after a shooting.

Why was this person on the street at all? These same people who vote for easy on crime policy are so sympathetic because the LBGTQ people were endangered but we never hear them when some hard-working middle class white person is assaulted by the likes of him.

Yep every Criminal Perp is ON THE RADAR...Then why are they NOT taken down BEFORE such incidents?
It appears the law enforcement in Democrap areas WANT the Perps to kill others so they can whine about the bad Guns!

Here is yet another case of some perp being “on the radar” and absolutely nothing was done about it, so he goes on to commit bigger crimes. What good is being “on the radar” if the radar is broken and the radar operators are asleep?

Since the shooter was a Dem this story will fade quickly

Re #2,
Why 21 and 22? What is the legal age for drinking? He can go drinking in public. He probably was abusing alcohol before 21.
Also, by 21 or 22, he has to know what he is making of his life. First guess, not much. It's looking more and more like one giant dead end.

What's incredible is, the 2 clubgoers(possibly gay) actually had the BALLs to tackle the shooter.

Sounds like another CIA/FBI operation. They haven’t had anything stick lately regarding gun control and the desperately needed this to feed the narrative.

No pics because the shooter was either a minority or black who has never had sex before. In C. Springs of all places and in one of the most conservative enclaves in Colorado. But evidently, orientation and politics had nothing to do with this massacre?

Actually the shooter did no such thing. If it had been an AK style weapon the media would have had a field day. But then the DM isn't always known for its honesty.

Wonder if he had an FBI hat like Robert Crimo in Highland Park?
