An army veteran and a drag performer helped stop a gunman from killing and injuring more victims at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs, Colo., over the weekend.

Richard M. Fierro has been credited as one of the heroic people who sprung to action to stop the shooter. Tragically, his daughter's boyfriend, Raymond Green Vance was killed when the gunman initially opened fire.

Fierro, a 15-year Army veteran who now owns local brewery, Atrevida Beer Co., recalled stepping in to take down the shooter in an interview with The New York Times.

"I don't know exactly what I did, I just went into combat mode," Mr. Fierro told The Times. "I just know I have to kill this guy before he kills us."

The heroic veteran was at the nightclub enjoying a drag show with his wife, daughter, her boyfriend, and friends.

He immediately went into protection mode after gunfire rang out. He went to the ground, making sure to pull down a friend as well. While on the floor, he said he spotted the gunman making his way from the bar to a patio filled with customers who had escaped.

What the heck difference does it make that he is - supposedly - a 'drag performer'?

Is his favorite food important, as well?
 
One question here: Why did this guy get out at 15 years of service? That makes zero sense. At 20 you get a retirement and pension.

Dishonourable discharge?

Seriously doubt that. You have to commit a major felony to get a DD. Possibly a disability but then that kind of argues against his being able to take the shooter down. More likely, something drug or sex related that got him tossed on an OTH or general discharge.

I am pretty sure that one can get a medical discharge at 15....I am more concerned that the guy dressed up as a chick is called a her, and almost certainly did not do anything of consequence.

Did you read the story? Two different people.
Someone that was an army vet and someone else that was a drag performer both attacked the shooter.
A drag performer also intervened and used her high heels to stomp on the shooter as Fierro said he continued hitting the gunman with the pistol.

So how was the shooter able to get a gun without being flagged? Didn't he have a previous charges? It wouldn't be that a DA dropped the charges and sealed the records would it? They knew he had weapons that should have been confiscated ...A senseless tragedy that could possibly have been avoided...

I run across a lot of questionable "veterans" being one myself. When I see something odd about their service, I wonder why that is. Technically, anyone who serves 90 days of active duty is a veteran unless they get a dishonorable discharge. I personally do not consider someone who served for say 6 months then got caught using illegal drugs and was tossed out on an other than honorable discharge (or dismissed from service--the officer equivalent) a veteran regardless of the government bureaucratic definition.

Good job by all. Unfortunately, the boyfriend was one of those murdered.

Five Americans murdered by a mad gunman in a LGBTQ bar who was stopped by patrons, one of them a vet, and EMC Terry A. Gardner USN (Ret.) only concern is the discharge status of the vet.

Not much of a humanitarian, are ya Chief?

Did you ask Captain Earl why he got out early? Smarterthanyou left after 8 years. Did you ever question his discharge status? Or don't you give a fuck about White Nationalist leaving because they, like you, hate the US government and all of you hate gays?

I'm curious, that's all. What? I can't ask questions to find out more? Am I just to accept what I'm told by the media and STFU? I don't think so.
