CHL shooter saves life of another, loses own

Perhaps everyone reading this should contact their local news outlets and repeat what happened.

From reports;

Hopefully you will join me in calling Rep. Leo Berman (512-463-0584 Austin, (903)
939-2400 Tyler), Senators Eltife ((512) 463-0101 Austin, (903) 596-9122 Tyler) and
Staples ((512) 463-0103 Austin, (936) 699-4988 Lufkin) and Govenor Perry ((800)
252-9600 or (512) 463-2000) and ask for a Resolution of the Legislature commending Mark
Allen Wilson for his actions.

The Tyler Police Chief says in his press conference
(http://www.kltv.com/Global/story.asp?S=2994393) that Wilson's actions probably saved
the life of the shooter's son.

Hopefully NRA/TSRA will also have some recognition for this brave man.
