Just fished this bit of news out of the internet involving an armed civilian stopping a knife-wielding thug at a Salt Lake City supermarket last night who had stabbed two people.
Now, we often hear about stories like this on the local news, but hardly ever on the national news, and I wonder why?
Another thing that irks me is that we often hear congressional testimony from victims who call for stricter gun control, but very seldom do we hear about gun-owners, specifically conceal carry permit holders, testifying before congress about how they stopped a crime.
We all know that on average roughly 2.5M crimes are stopped annually by gun owners, but we only hear about those violent crimes and the need for gun control. It's time the voices of the 2nd Amendment supporters are heard in congressional testimony.
