Default CCW stops Knife Attacks
You will not see this on national news. But a good guy with a CCW stopped a knife attack. This could have been a real blood bath. The BG just bought a knife in the store and started stabbing customers. Had this happened in a gun store it would have been reported every where.

Kudos to the man who stopped that madness! He handled that situation flawlessly by giving the warning first and not just succumbing to emotions and sending shots down range. Kudos also to the police for acknowledging that this hero saved lives with his actions as well. This proves the necessity of a ccw in the hands of a law abiding citizen! Great job! This is story should definitely get media attention although we all know it'll get swept under the rug. Thanks for posting this link

I am surprised that ABC reported it and praised the gun owner.

To be clear... ABC said the other citizens were praising the man... Not the news company... That being said it is nice for firearms owners to be on the good side of a news story!

The BG in this case was an Asian man. He was screaming you whites have killed my people.I think this is a hate crime.

Couldnt POSSIBLY be a hate crime... Silly rabbit, hate crimes are only committed when whites defend themselves against blacks.
