BREAKING: A First responder in the Texas mall shooting pours water over the bullsh*t GOP narrative:
“It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets,” he said.
“Prayers and condolences won't bring these people back. We need action in the federal and state legislatures for better gun control,” witness Steven Spainhouer told MSNBC.
“I’m saying this as someone who loves guns….I'm a former police officer. I’m a former Army officer.”
Spainhouer rushed desperately to aid those wounded and dying after shots rang out a little after 3:30 p.m. May 6.
He said the victims had such horrific injuries that they had to be loaded into police cars because ambulances would not have gotten them to nearby trauma facilities fast enough.
He also said he also found a child, who survived while covered by his protective mother who had been killed.
Ultimately, Spainhouer says what he witnessed Saturday will haunt him for the rest of his life.
Now, he’s calling on Congress to DO SOMETHING.
Thank you former officer Spainhouer for speaking out! 💙

This is why we have to keep fighting for real gun reform every day. For our kids. They deserve so much better.
What will you do?

Update on Oakland Hills: Club president Rick Palmer says the board met and made an ‘easy decision’ to build a replica clubhouse.
They believe they are fully covered for the loss and rebuild of the clubhouse. There is no dollar amount yet. The build will likely take two seasons.
Our thoughts are with our friends at @OaklandHillsCC. Most importantly, we are relieved to hear that no one was injured.
Along with so many others in the golf community, we have special memories at this storied venue and look forward to making more with them in the coming years.
This is incredible 🥲 a silver lining from a devastating day.
DURING the fire, the staff inside @oaklandhillscc partnered w/ the fire crews to form a human line, to hand off and save as many historical artifacts as they could before the fire engulfed the clubhouse.
