Imagine, though, sometime later you find out that the man who attacked you, who tried to strangle you, was being held up as a victim of “gun violence.” How would you respond?

It’s another attempt to stigmatize gun owners.

After all, if you’re terrified of shooting someone because you’ll be painted as a murderer, regardless of what the police find, then you’re less likely to have the means to kill your attackers.

It’s absolutely disgusting, and they should be ashamed of themselves.
The libs strike again

And From the article:


"Aubrey reportedly suffers from PTSD regarding this incident, and I’m quite sure this isn’t likely to help. It also appears that she’s been fully exonerated by the police, contrary to what the link in the quoted section claims, as she should be.
The thing is, Bruce Jones killed himself. Aubrey Bowlin just carried the bullets for a little while.
What that means is that the moment he made the decision–road rage induced or not–to attack a young woman on the side of the road for whatever reason, he forfeited his life. He essentially committed “suicide by armed citizen.”"


My best friend when he was alive, indicated pretty much the same thing. Carl never woke up with the intention of killing anyone; but if someone came at him or a loved one with intent to kill, then they forfeited their lives.

This is how all gun-related stories should happen, even school shootings. That is, the attacked person ends shooting the attacker while the attacker is still a threat. Whether or not the shooting of the attacker should be fatal is debatable.

The State already said it wouldn't prosecute her earlier this year.

And we all know the State doesn't like anyone getting killed unless it can do it itself.

What more do the anti-gunners want?

Life is not like the movies. You can't shoot a gun out of someone's hand when under pressure.

You keep shooting until the threat is gone.

Several years ago my wife bought me a small gun safe, it would hold 1 maybe 2 hand guns. I wanted to keep that particular safe in the living room. But my wife would not let me keep it there. She said you can put it in another room. I was like, honey I don't need a gun safe in another room, I already have either an existing gun safe, or I already have a gun in my nightstand.


I could use it in the living room, as that was the next room we spent most of our time in. I don't think she liked the look of that safe; so it did not get to stay in the living room.


If I need to get to one in a hurry, I have to just get 25 feet further, and I am good
