A good guy with an AR15 rifle stops a deadly attack. I'm glad this guy stepped in, and ended this knife attack.


Dave Thomas witnessed the attack unfolding and knew he had to do something.

“I poked my head out the door. There was a pool of blood, blood was everywhere in the hall. There was still a confrontation going on, there were about three or four people involved at this point,” he recalled to WGN 9.

Thomas said he ran back to his home and grabbed his AR-15 rifle. Moments later, he was ordering the knife-wielding attacker to stop.

And he did.

“I grabbed the AR-15 over my handgun — bigger gun, I think a little more of an intimidation factor. Definitely played a part in him actually stopping,” Thomas added.

Fake news. Nobody discuss this and ban it as per deep state censorship rules.

Thanks for pointing this out, ban guns AND knives! Obviously very very bad. The gun scared the knifey guy and hurt his feelings.

Anyone with martial arts skills can stop someone with a knife. Women even learn that in self defense classes. You don't need an AK

I suspect that the leftists that make up so much of this board will stay away from this one in droves. Can't go poking holes in the MSM narrative with facts now, can we?

So if the choice was armed or unarmed you choose unarmed?

The biggest pile I have heard today.

There is no unarmed defence against a knife wielder. None.

With an AK (or maybe even an AR) maybe even Broward County deputies would confront a man with a knife. Don't bet on it though.

Always funny all the kung-foo experts that talk tough about taking an armed man down with their hands. Tiny hands?

Do you even know martial arts.....no. But this is what they teach. Go to an exhibition sometime and see what these black belts can do. It's pretty amazing.
