Media praises gun owner
JK - doesn’t fit the narrative An armed pastor stopped an active shooter in a Walmart parking lot. If the shooter had killed multiple people, it would be ALL OVER mainstream media. Once again, good guy with a gun stops bad guy with a gun. Lives saved. MSM narrative incomplete. Remember, “if it bleeds it leads” = advertising dollars 💵 https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/police-armed-civilian-took-down-shooter-at-washington-state-walmart/771791480
KIRONice now let's do the net gains, take the number of actual threats stopped vs mass shooters
Keep posting the 1 example in 1000 where a gun leads to a positive rather than a negative outcome. That will definitely change our minds
Just here for the salt. 🍿
Duh. If the bad guy didn't have a gun we wouldn't be in the situation to begin witj.
Bad guys always have guns anyway.
No it never happened cuz it is not on the headline.
Sure. Now tally up how many such incidents are prevented with a gun vs. how many that get perpetrated with the gun. Next step, how many lost vs. how many saved.
Turns out the CDC did that. Then buried the report: https://www.forbes.com/sites/paulhsieh/2018/04/30/that-time-the-cdc-asked-about-defensive-gun-uses/ TL;DR: defensive gun use is at least as high as criminal offense gun use. I.e. lives saved by good guy with a gun > lives destroyed by bad guy with a gun.
