I hike in this area all the time.  Just a reminder that there are no safe spaces, anywhere, ever.   And you must never give any quarter to a criminal who is pointing a gun at you, male, female, young or old.

Used to go to TNF all the time to shoot at that old  range whwre you leave parking fee in envelope.

Was telling this to wife—“you get drop on some robber, especially an armed one, shoot them, no words, no hesitation”

When it's time to shoot, shoot don't talk.

Wonder how many bodies are hidden out there. Bet this wasn't their first rodeo doing that. I'm starting back camping this fall. Will be backpack and canoe camping. Have always been careful at boat ramps and parking areas. Will definitely have a handgun ready, rifle if using canoe.

The minute he saw the threat he needed to eliminate the threat. I may be wrong but I am afraid he did not shoot to eliminate. Regardless horrible situation. One more thing good belt and holster, not stuck down your pants.

That movie was about the Rat, not Eastwood.

Can you open carry in this park? (Or other state parks in Alabama?)

Yes you can open carry in any National Forest here in Bama. I believe the same for state parks as well.

Second conviction in federal court this week for this pair of criminals, the shooter rolled on the other one as the mastermind.

I have been hiking that area for almost 3 decades and never expected to see this sort of thing.  Glock 19 will remain my constant companion from here on out, the Talladega National Forrest is no longer safe trails, "only my J frame" country for me.  There are no more safe places, anywhere.

A picture in one of the early news stories showed a lot of camping equipment for just 2 people.  I really think there is more

The first indication he had his own gun should have been several loud noises and bullets impacting the woman's body and head.
