BELLEVUE, WA – In the aftermath of Saturday’s terrible mass shooting incident at a Twin Falls, Idaho In-N-Out Burger, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms agrees with local authorities that the intervention of an armed private citizen, and an off-duty police officer, undoubtedly distracted the gunman and saved many lives.

“Clearly from the videos we’ve seen, the citizen, identified as Jordan Salinas, disregarded his personal safety in a courageous effort to stop the shooting,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “You can’t invent that kind of courage, especially when it involved taking on a dangerous man, who was armed with a rifle, when you’re armed with a Five-Seven pistol. While our thoughts are with the victims of this attack, we are grateful that a good man stepped forward, in harm’s way, to courageously intervene.

“We still don’t know the identity of the off-duty officer who also engaged the gunman,” Gottlieb added, “but we’re certain the good citizens of Twin Falls are indebted to him as well. We’re impressed how two good guys, acting independently of one another, moved in on the perpetrator, causing him to retreat until uniformed officers could arrive and handle the situation.”

Published reports say Salinas, a healthcare worker and caregiver to his wheelchair-bound brother, has practiced regularly with his pistol ever since reading about another mall shooting in Boise. Like any armed citizen, reports say he had hoped such a day would never come, but when he found himself in the middle of chaos, his self-training took over.

“As in the past,” Gottlieb observed, “the gun prohibition crowd is nowhere to be seen or heard. The fact that Mr. Salinas had a silencer on his pistol further demonstrates that good people can own modern handguns and sound suppressors, with which they can accomplish good things.

“We commend the actions of Mr. Salinas and the unidentified, off-duty officer,” he concluded, “and we also commend Idaho lawmakers who have made it possible for law-abiding citizens to be armed in public so they may not only defend themselves, but protect others when a deadly emergency unfolds.”
