Finally A Gun Is Used To Stop A Crime Instead Of Killing Innocent People

[ultra...good]

I am surprised this made it to print with a headline like such. Maybe we need a little journalism reform? From what I understand the UK fines journalists when they are wrong, took that from the Piers Morgan thread.

There is a whole lot of wrong in that story. For most being an owners gun being used on them is NOT very common. Also the good guy in question IS one of the privildged. Yes great the baddies went down but not really a pro gun article.

Story is about as gun bashing as it could be while skating around the fact it saved a life

 

[slowG]

Yea .. Sickening..

I couldn't tell if he was a pro-gun gun owner, or an anti-gun gun owner.

Wow. What a bunch of ANTI
rhetoric glommed all over a sneering concession of a story.

In the wild west, when everyone carried guns, it wasn't always the bad guys that got shot.

Antis love to make reference to the "wild west" like they know what they're talking about. They only know what they see in movies and on tv.

I hate it when they list a whole bunch of statistics like it means anything. The point is, I don't want anyone telling me what I can and cannot do based on a bunch of B.S statistics. You don't want a gun? I don't care. Don't tell me what I can and cannot have, especially when it is my right as an American.

Here's another contribution to the crap-heap from this blow-hard.

I'm Just Not Ready To Accept That We Have To Have Mass Shootings All The Time - Business Insider

Why do I doubt that he's a gun owner?

I'll bet some of his best friends are "Afro-Americans" too.

Having read and followed the links at the bottom of his articles it is apparent that the author may be a gun owner (what, a Jennings or other POS ?) but, he is no Gun Owner. Another left-leaning compromiser and equivocater. Afraid of freedoms that others fought for because he cannot conceive of a positive benefit to HIMSELF. Well, certainly, big cities have "effective" police departments (Chicago ? Not!) however, what of people like myself, only 2 cops in the entire township that are usually 15 to 20 minutes away? Pure urban vs rural elitism.

I think the most important thing to glean from this article is that there are "gun owners", and there are people who simply own guns. The author is clearly the latter.
