Critics are lashing out after a man carrying a concealed pistol stopped a mass shooting at an Indiana shopping mall, arguing the man should not be called a "Good Samaritan."

"The term, ‘Good Samaritan’ came from a Bible passage of a man from Samaria who stopped on the side of the road to help a man who was injured and ignored," wrote CBS4 traffic anchor Justin Kollar on Twitter Monday. "I cannot believe we live in a world where the term can equally apply to someone killing someone… my God."

Kollar's comment comes after a gunman opened fire at a suburban Indianapolis shopping mall on Sunday, killing three people before he was gunned down by a man legally carrying a pistol, according to police. Reports on Monday found that the man who put a halt to the shooting was actually in violation of Greenwood Park Mall policy, which bans the carry of weapons in its facility.

Greenwood Mayor Mark Myers credited the man with saving several lives by killing the shooter, saying they were grateful for his "quick action and heroism."

"Someone we are calling the ‘Good Samaritan’ was able to shoot the assailant and stop further bloodshed," Meyers said in a statement. "This person saved lives tonight. On behalf of the City of Greenwood, I am grateful for his quick action and heroism in this situation."

But some critics joined Kollar in criticizing the man's actions despite him allegedly putting a stop to the mass shooting.

"The Good Samaritan paid for an unknown immigrant's health care out of pocket," comedian John Fugelsang wrote on Twitter. "The Good Samaritan did not shoot anyone. Jesus was not a fan of killing for any reason, including self-defense. But if these ammosexuals had ever read the Bible, they couldn't support the GOP or NRA."

"I don’t know who needs to hear this but when a 22-year-old illegally brings a loaded gun into a mall and kills a mass shooter armed with an AR-15 after he already killed three people and wounded others is not a ringing endorsement of our implementation of the Second Amendment," Moms Demand Action Founder Shannon Watts said on Twitter.

But despite the man's apparent lack of regard for mall rules, his actions were also praised by Greenwood Park Mall representatives.

"We grieve for the victims of yesterday’s horrific tragedy in Greenwood. Violence has no place in this or any other community. We are grateful for the strong response of the first responders, including the heroic actions of the Good Samaritan who stopped the suspect," a mall spokesperson said.

Fuck 'em.

He's a Hoosier hero.

Dey finna get dragged

Lol at all of the late night talk show hosts. They talk like they have a masters of divinity.

Justin Kollar is an utter moron.

"Let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one"

They're just upset the incident wasn't resolved by an unarmed community outreach agent.

Exactly. 22 year old kid who made a heckuva decision to try and save people at risk to himself. And did.

"Ammosexual"...

Lol, Shannon watts.

What a maroon.


I hope the guy gets the key to the fuckin city and a large cash reward.

Nothing upsets a leftist more than reality

Oh no. Anti gunners didn't get a higher body count to dance in their blood.
Hoe's still mad.

I wish my income was high enough to be labeled that.
I missed out on the great cheap ammo run.

Kollar can go back to sucking his bag of dicks.

And fuck them again.

They would have been happier seeing more people murdered while waiting for the police to show up.

Let me translate:

"If he would have shit 1 more person we could pad another mass shooting into the numbers"

The sound of a million gun control advocates crying out in pain at once...

Watts once claimed that she was not aware of one, not even one, instance of a good guy stopping a bad guy with a gun. Well suck it bitch.

They are trying to criminalize self defense.

It's really that simple, folks.

A violent criminal the cops killed shot at you and your kids?

"You're alive. Shutup."

They’re a death cult disguised as an advocacy group.  You can smell the underlying self loathing through your device.

You gotta be some new kind of stupid to criticize stopping a murderer as he continued to murder more people.

Good job young man.

Koller looks exactly like you think he would. I bet the bag of dicks statement is accurate.

that is the entire problem these people are stupid and mentally unstable

The real problem is that this is an immediate and unmistakable rebuke to what happened in Uvalde. They are actively trying to destroy the "good guy with a gun" argument as either a fiction (Uvalde) or white supremacist vigilantism.

This incident is a clear example of how ridiculous their rhetoric is, and that's why they hate it.

They prefer their narrative to reality. Their narrative gives them power and license.

Reality does not.

They will kill you and see everyone you love and everything you hold dear utterly destroyed to protect their narrative.

I think we should take that back. I identify as ammosexual, if you try to take my guns and ammo, you're a hate filled bigot who literally kills people

No, they aren't.

They are malevolent.

This is not the ravings of an idiot.

These are the ravings of someone determined to do anything to get power.

Shout the fools back down

Don’t wanna call him the Good Samaritan? Fair enough. How about the avenging angel? This man saved lives and screw each and every person with a complaint about what he did yesterday.

The post-modernist mindset.  “Truth is what we say it is” no matter how abstract their logic.

The left’s obsession with relating “gun owner” to “bible thumper”, and then using said relation to try and make gun owners look like hypocrites is hilarious. Newsflash, dummies: A metric shit ton of 2A supporters don’t give two shits about religion. So you can miss me with that “Jesus wouldn’t call that man a Good Samaritan” bullshit.

Props to the guy for stopping the shooter. How anyone could be mad at that is mind-boggling. Just goes to show that antigunners don’t really care about stopping mass shootings.

Why can’t I down vote that bitches tweets

She said he illegally had a gun. Looks like he didn’t can he sue her to the fucking ground?

We need to use the phrase "Good Samaritan" double time now in regards to this. Facebook, Twitter, etc. Get on it.

This. If given the opportunity these folks would have you and yours killed to create their idea of utopia.

Their problem is they want people dead by guns so they can keep pushing their narrative.  

The old adage of ‘only a good guy with a gun can stop a bad guy with a gun’ is quite true, however.

The responses to the tweet are hilarious.

Who is "they"?

Yep. Straight from Jesus mouth. It's obvious that whoever it was in that article who was trying to say Jesus was never okay with killing under any circumstance has never read the bible.

I identify.  Here is my flag:

Who would "these folks"  have do their bidding?

Seems like just a few shootings ago the anti gun crowd was asking "where are all these concealed carry guys?".

He risked himself to help others.  “Good Samaritan” seems like an apt label.

Kollar, Watts, and the "comedian" I've never heard of, can all get fucked by a rusty cactus.

I think "hero" is a better term than "Good Samaritan" anyhow.

First off, the man in the parable was NOT an immigrant.  Since from Samaria didn't get along with Israelites, I assume he was a regular Jew. That would certainly fit the context of the parable.  They were both subjects of the same empire.  

Secondly, even though Jesus isn't a fan of killing anyone, there's no possible way you can read both the OT and NT and think that God (and by extension, Jesus), is completely opposed to ending someone's life.

They're mad because more people didn't die.

State and federal law enforcement. It's already happening with red-flag laws and such on a small scale. It hasn't been too hard to fill these agencies with folks out to earn a paycheck. See New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, California, etc etc

Tens of thousands of LEOs that will go after anyone they're told to, right or wrong, constitutional or unconstitutional. A lot of them will kill you and never lose any sleep over it.

They hate it when CCW prevents murders. They would rather have innocent people die so they can push their BS agenda.

I am on a Twitter ban y'all mind trolling those idiots for me?

Just read an article where some scumbag knocked over 2 convenience stores. Was committing his third armed robbery of the morning when an armed person dropped him while he was holding a knife to the female clerks neck. I think this happened in Missouri? I hope this becomes a trend. As to the “good samaritan” thing, fine dont call them that. Call them”Person with which you don’t want to fuck”

What's so insane about all this is the good guy stopped the bad guy from killing more innocent people, yet the left is hung up on HOW he stopped him.

Would the left feel better if he used a knife instead to stop the shooter by stabbing him to death? What if he used a baseball bat and bludgeoned him to death?

How he stopped the shooter is really irrelevant. Just goes to once again show liberalism is a mental disorder.
