Texas Standard for April 8, 2016
Texas tops the national news, with a shooting at a military base in San Antonio. The Standard tracks the shooting incident at Lackland Air Force Base. Also: a cellphone video of a 12-year-old slammed to the ground by school police stirs debate over the line between maintain order and abuse of power. Plus: Many happy returns?
