TX Woman Whose Parents Were Killed In Mass Shooting Slams Gun Control


48 views

A Texas woman who lived through tragedy turned the liberal narrative on guns upside down in a passionate testimony she gave before Congress.

Suzanna Gratia Hupp lost both of her parents during a mass shooting in 1991 when a gunman crashed through the building in his truck then opened fire on Luby’s restaurant, where Suzanna and her parents were eating.

The gunman killed 23, including Suzanna’s parents.

“I reached for the gun in my purse on the floor next to me,” Suzanna recalled before members of Congress,

“But then I realized that a few months earlier I had made the stupidest decision of my life. My gun was 100 yards away, dutifully left in my car to obey the law because at that time in the state of Texas, carrying a handgun was illegal.”

Back in 1991, concealed carry was not yet legal in Texas. Thanks to George W. Bush, this was changed in 1995.

Suzanna also pushed for concealed carry to become legal in Texas following the mass shooting that took her parents away from her. Watch Suzanna’s 1991 testimony here (anyone who wants gun control really should watch this):
