      This must be a young person with little life experience. When people are young they are sometimes selfish, stupid thinkers who are quasi psychopathic in their emotional reactions.
      Just like how young 20s drive without consciously acting with awareness that a car is a deadly weapon. Swerving around vehicles impatient forgetting that even tapping a person can cause irreparable harm.

      After the first report that Officer Wilt had a “head shot” it seemed like that was synonymous with he didn’t make it. I am glad I watched this to see how well his rehab is doing. He must have some deficits that can’t be seen, but from what we can see, he, with the love of both his families, the Metro police and his mother and brother, and the support of the community, will have a long, successful life. This isn’t to diminish at all the loss the other families have experienced. Since five people were killed and only the family of one of them is in this documentary, there are four families who were not ready to share both how wonderful their loved one was and how they are coping with that empty chair at the dinner table.
      The Sandy Hook massacre just happened to be on my birthday, so that date is impossible for me to forget. That was TWELVE years ago. I was just positive that FINALLY, something would be done to, if not totally eliminate, at least save some lives.
      This documentary is just one tiny piece of the tragedies we are ALL forced to live with because a few people genuinely believe the loss of those lives don’t matter as long as they still have as many of any as many kinds of guns that they can have the money they have to buy weapons of mass destruction and keep them in their homes.
      How many more…?

    I can so relate to the trauma surgeon. I am a flight nurse in another state. I began my career at the tender age of 17; with the thoughts of all of the wonderful things I could do for my fellow neighbors. My life was soon changed by all of the ugliness of this world. I have worked through a natural disaster that took the lives of over 300 people, unimaginable crimes and accidents, as well as illnesses that no one could imagine. I have no regrets. I pray daily that no one should ever see what I have seen-no human should. If I have made the life of just one person better, then I am truly blessed. The first people on my prayer list every day are first responders. May God bless everyone in this world.

We were founded on the principle that the government doesn’t give us rights, but rather God or the mere essence of our individual existence gives us rights. Thus, each law-abiding American citizen has the right to firearms & self-defense, unless there’s a massive legal reason for it to be removed.
      Citizens of Pol Pot Lenin Stalin Hitler Castro Mussolini etc didn’t have that right, so the slaughter by communists/socialists ensued.
      So if the UK or Scotland or Australia ever is taken over by a dictator because they only allowed government to legally own firearms, the USA will step in and help you.
      Australia still has many firearms, but not as much drug and gang violence. Most USA gun violence is perpetrated by those involved with gangs, drugs, trafficking, and with illegally-obtained firearms, but those events don’t make the media spotlight. Moreover, the media rarely focuses on the event in which a law-abiding firearm owner stops a crime in self-defense or merely by brandishing a weapon. That’s not their narrative.

    I look for great, short stories. Once in awhile I find a video like this one. Active shooters. Changed lives. Starting over. Losses.
    It breaks my heart that a person would go out and hurt innocent people. With all their photos being shown...I can tell they had a great life. A great family. Wonderful children. Wonderful wife. Wonderful in every way. The ending I wasn't expecting. I saw a young Officer that lost his life. Then it turned out he survived. Thanks for the beautiful ending for the young Officer that survived. Thanks to all Responders, Doctor's and Nurses.
    God bless all of you.

    I live in louisville and this was so scary and very tragic. When this happened it really shocked our city, but our city is very strong. We came together like youre suppose to for your neighbors. Im proud to call louisville my home. Im happy to know that our officers, emt and fire personal are selfless people that have a passion for what they do and I can say I feel confident living in louisville knowing who will be there if ever needed. When this terrifying evil happens, I know they will go straight in, full force. They are amazing heros. A special thank you to them. For everyone who lost loved ones, you and your families are still in my prayers. I pray God gives you peace and I pray for your healing in Jesus name. God bless everyone.

If the fact that there is literally more than 1 mass shooting a day in the US and that is NOT normal , would actually sink in to Americans and that the disgusting gun worshipping in the US stopped and that people actually mattered more than guns and that Americans and the US actually cared enough to do something , anything , to try to reduce the amount of guns in the US , to try to reduce the amount of mass and school shootings , to try to reduce the amount of kids getting shot etc instead of doing absolutely nothing but sending useless "thoughts & prayers" over and over and over and over .

      You're so right! This video was done so wonderfully. On your second point in your comment, I found an article that hit on that part. He left 2 notes, one at his home and one on his person, plus a few posts on his IG that were very dark in theme. After watching this, I searched for any other news about it on Safari and there was an article about what investigators found out about him. It's definitely something to look into if you're interested on the 'why', like I was. I wish I could say it satisfied my curiosity, but it only made this whole tragedy that much more palpable because of how he thought doing this would change things instead of going a more peaceful route. 😢 💔

When I was a vol. firefigher we had gotten a lot of calls over the years for fires at our local lumberyard which were controlled burns but.......one night we got the usual lumberyard call this time it was for real, giaganic devastating fire.
