Re: Biden: Obama Considering 'Executive Order' to Deal With Guns | The Weekly Standar
what state do you live in
I know dozens of people who have pulled guns on criminals and I know for a fact that only two have been reported
When I was moving up the ranks of pro IPSC style shooters, I used to train with a guy who was in Nam before we were officially there. He was part of what became the Green Beret. Well one day he showed me a newspaper clipping of a supposed unsolved killing involving bikers with many warrants and a record a mile long about the time the race riots were hitting the USA. Seems the Master Sgt was home on leave and was on his bike in an area which had recently become invested with two warring bike gangs (and he didn't know this because he had been in The Nam for a couple years). Well Sgt was riding on his bike when out of no where a couple members of "the Iron Horsemen" rode up on his six and knocked him off his bike. They went down about 50 yards turned around and came back at him -one swinging a chain.. Well the good sgt-lawful or not pulled out the Browning HP he carried in the Nam and center punched both of the outlaw bikers through the face. DOA. two days later he's on his way back to the Nam and he calls an old service buddy who was now part of the local constabulary and reports what had happened. The deputy basically said they figured the "invaders" had whacked the two bikers and since the bikers were both wanted and the cops were busy with riots that was the way it was gonna go down.
So a lawful stomping of two cockroaches was written off an "gang violence"
I bet I could not find one single citizen in our largest city here in my state who has pulled a weapon against a criminal in the last year. You are largely supposing the suit your preconceived notion of the gun myth.
