Tributes pour in for hero killed after confronting white supremacists

The civilian shot dead by a white supremacist couple on Sunday after he confronted them in a Las Vegas mall has been hailed a hero for his fearless bravery in attempting to protect others.

Joseph Wilcox, 31, was shopping in Wal-Mart when Jerad Miller and his wife Amanda Miller entered.

The couple had just killed two police officers and in the store, Jerad Miller fired one round and told everyone to get out.

Wilcox, who was legally carrying a concealed weapon, told his friends he was going to confront the gunman - not realizing that he had an accomplice.

I would like to say thanks to this person for trying to do something. Did he stop the killings...maybe. But regardless at least he tried to defend the other people around him.

I would also like to add AGAIN. These were not white supremacists. They put a swastika on the police as "a likely message that the police were Nazis". This is a quote from the investigating police dept.

I am sure the reason for this false info is because it sells. But it also creates a further rift in the race war that has been created. A war which is just a senseless as any other war. DO YOU BEST TO NOT SPREAD THIS FALSE INFORMATION. PLEASE.

Too bad there were not more like him in the restaurant. Those two could have been stopped there if other customers and staff were armed.
