What galls me. is while acts of violence committed by a nut case or criminal with a gun typically get universal/unending media coverage, incidents where armed citizens successfully defend themselves or others, seldom do. If no one bleeds, the media usually isn’t interested.
The most dangerous areas often have the most restrictive municipal carry laws (go figure), and those reluctant to shoot often face serious ‘brandishing’ penalties. Honest citizens shouldn’t ever have to choose between death or bankruptcy.
