A story to read and remember


On October 16, 1991, Dr. Suzanna Gratia Hupp's life changed forever.
Her parents and she were in a Killeen, Texas, restaurant, when a madman drove his truck through glass windows of the restaurant and began executing people in the restaurant, including her father and her mother.
Her gun was in her vehicle, because Texas laws at that time prohibited her from taking her gun into the restaurant. Had she had it with her, she knew she could have taken the gunman down.
She became a Texas state legislator and was instrumental in passage of broad concealed carry laws there, and she travels throughout the country, promoting concealed carry.
You can buy her new book, From Luby's to the Legislature: One Woman's Fight Against Gun Control, through Read Between the Lynes Bookstore in Woodstock.
