Source // Two heroes from the Colorado Springs nightclub shooting were a military veteran and a trans woman (misidentified as a drag queen in the article) who stepped on the gumman with her heels.
No cops. A vet and a trans woman.

If you’re in the Colorado Springs Area please read, lost dog
My beloved girl disappeared today, we think someone accidentally let her out while opening the front door. Her name is Biddy, she’s an older dog, chihuahua mix, white fur with slight brown markings on her ears, she only has one eye due to an injury a few years back. She might seem scary at first because she is scared of strangers, but she really is a sweetheart if you can calm her down and give her pets or something, and shes loved a lot. We live around Circle and Pikes Peak, I’m scared because some of the traffic around here is busy.
I know Facebook is better for lost pet posts and my family has made a post on there but since I dont have facebook i figured id throw this out there

My heart is heavy thinking about the victims, survivors, their loved ones, the LGBTQ community, and everyone who is sad and afraid today

Remember his name. He is a hero. Richard M. Fierro. Around us always are people ready to do the right thing. Be that person. 
From the @nytimes: COLORADO SPRINGS — Richard M. Fierro said he was at a table in Club Q with his wife, daughter and friends on Saturday, watching a drag show, when the sudden flash of gunfire ripped across the nightclub. His instincts from four combat deployments as an Army officer in Iraq and Afghanistan instantly kicked in. Fight back, he told himself. In an interview at his house, where his wife and daughter were still recovering from injuries, Mr. Fierro, 45, who left the Army in 2013 as a major, according to military records, described charging through the chaos at the club, tackling the gunman and beating him bloody with the gunman’s own gun. “I don’t know exactly what I did, I just went into combat mode,” Mr. Fierro said, shaking his head. “I just know I have to kill this guy before he kills us.”

Today was exhausting, I haven't cried this much in idk how long. My friends and chosen family picked me up and carried me through. I don't know what I'd do without them. My community is everything to me, and I would do anything for my siblings. For long as I am alive I will fight for my family. Rest in power.
