When a man gives his life protecting others he is a hero. That is what Mark Wilson did yesterday when he tried to stop the rampage in Tyler Texas. It is believed that his sacrifice saved the life of the victims son. Mr. Wilson, tried to stop a man with an AK-47 using his CCW. He was able to get off two shots to the perps body while the perp was reloading. Tragically the perp was wearing two bullet proof vests and Mr Wilsons shots were ineffective. The perp was able to finish reloading and kill Mr. Wilson. You will have to search the internet to find this story as the MSM is not reporting it completely, as usual. Here is a link to a thread that has some second hand info http://www.glocktalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=349575&perpage=25&highlight=&pagenumber=1
Rest in Peace Mark Wilson, Hero

Hell, maybe we should have a law restricting VESTS? 
Seriously, like the Bank Robbery episode out in California a few years ago, the perps got hit but they didn't take any damage.
May he rest in peace.
