Watch: This Is What Happens When the Good Guy Has a Gun
As anti-gun lawmakers the country over work towards achieving a Utopic society without the Second Amendment, the fact is that those who would do harm to innocent people will not go away. Not only will they never give up their guns should they become illegal, but they’ll happily commit their crimes with knives, blunt weapons or even cars if that’s what it takes to get what they want.
The great equalizer since its invention in the 14th century has been the gun and as shown in the video report below, it still is.
A Houston, Texas woman was recently leaving a retail store with her children when she was jumped by two individuals who intended to snatch her purse. They dragged her with their vehicle and were just about to get away.
But before they had a chance to flee the Concealed/Carry version of a Good Samaritan stepped in to save the day.
This is what happens when the good guy has a gun and takes a stand against crime.
A man in another car nearby heard the screams, pulled out his pistol and rushed to the victim’s aid. He stopped the would-be robbers, holding them at gunpoint until the police arrived.
Police identified the suspects as Shamarion Daina Brooks, 34, and 48-year-old Jesse Leroy Grace. They were both taken into custody and charged with robbery by threat, police said. Police said Brooks also was charged with possession of a controlled substance while Grace was also charged with driving a stolen vehicle. (Chron)

The six bystanders shot at a FedEx facility in Georgia on Tuesday weren’t lucky enough to have an equalizer on hand.
In Kennesaw, where the shooting occurred, the town has a an ordinance stipulating the mandatory ownership of guns for every household in the city. This prompted New York Times writer Timothy Noah to suggest that the debate over gun ownership should be renewed.
There’s a sad twist to the shooting Tuesday morning at a FedEx facility in Kennesaw, Ga., where an employee injured six co-workers before turning the gun on himself. Kennesaw is one of several U.S. cities and towns that have an ordinance requiring every household to own a gun.
What’s most amusing about Noah’s attempt to highlight the fact that every household in Kennesaw has a gun, yet the FedEx shooter still managed to wound six people, is the picture included in the article.
Can you spot the problem?
Here is a zoom on the relevant portion, in case you missed it:
There is not one, but two signs warning potential FedEx customers that firearms were prohibited on the premises.
And where did the teenage shooter go when he decided to open fire on a bunch of people? The question is rhetorical, but follows the same sequence of events as the Virginia Tech and Aurora, Colorado shootings.
How would the events at these locations have played out had the signs looked more like one of these?
The solution is simple.

I believe this is one part of the table that is finally starting to turn. It seems the news media all across the nation are actually making it a big story when a legal gun owner prevents a crime or stops possible personal injury to others with their gun. I am hoping that before long the site of an armed individual (someone carrying a holstered sidearm) is looked upon no differently than any other individual. One thing that would quickly stop a lot of the B/S calls to the police that someone is carrying a gun would be three short questions from the dispatcher. 1. Is the gun being held or in a holster? If held is it a pistol or long gun. 2. Is the gun being used in the course of a crime or in a threatening manner? 3. Is the person carrying the gun look as though they are committing a crime?. If the person calling answers no to all three questions the dispatcher is to inform the caller that carrying a firearm is not illegal. Then the dispatcher will ask the caller if they still want an officer dispatched. If the caller says yes they still want an officer to be dispatched the dispatcher is to reply that he/she will be more than happy to dispatch an officer but if it is found that the person carrying the firearm is committing no crime, has whatever legal paperwork required for that city, province, etc that they (the caller) may be charged with making a false report and legal action taken accordingly. Also the person that the officer has to respond to may have certain legal options available to him/her for the false report being made and may seek legal action against you. Do you understand what I have just told you?
I bet that would stop about 99% of the B/S calls to police about a citizen carrying a gun. To me it is the same thing as calling the police if you see someone entering the house across the street but because of extenuating circumstances (the sun is in your eyes) you are not sure if it is the owner of the home or not. So you call the police. You just don’t go call the police because you are unsure about something.
Also this tactic is being used by the anti-gun people to use the police to harass innocent people that are breaking no laws just because they disagree with their politics. I do hope that the majority of the police out there begin to understand this. I hope they also realize that if the worst happens they can probably bet that the citizen carrying the gun will come to their aid while those who call the police just because they see a gun will be the ones hiding behind their drapes when the cop needs help.
I detective that happens to be my neighbor tried to tell me that by me wearing my sidearm that if a burglar comes into a place of business, it will be me he shoots first. I told the detective on the other hand if a burglar comes into a business and sees several patrons armed he’ll probably go somewhere else. With that he could not disagree.
God bless him and thank you very much for standing up and doing what’s right….
