Note to Self:
Next time in line in front of fellow buying a knife, be sure to buy a gun first.
Because the gun was racist.
Holder’s people?
They’ve killed far, far more of their own people, deliberately, than anyone else ever could. At least 14 million at their own hands.
Blam blam blam get on the ground now!
You go first!
I have no intellectual or emotional issue against shooting an attacker, armed or not.
I will only shoot to kill, and am personally unable to shoot to warn or wound.
I blame it on training, since only extensively trained snipers can consciously decide to shoot to wound, as opposed to kill.
I have no sniper training.
I’m glad that this man was able to terminate the situation as he did.
I do hope he doesn’t ultimately get charged with “brandishing a weapon”. Hopefully, his state has some variation of a “stand your ground” law.
Yes. They would have also taken his gun away for “evidence”.
Wonder why they don’t take people’s cars away in accidents. They take pictures, people can sign statements, make reports, etc. Ought to be able to do the same thing without losing your weapon.
This is what happens often when good people are armed! Stop being victims and to hell with the illegal regulation of no carry!
And by not putting this rabid animal down he’ll just get out of jail again and violate other people in the future!
If this had occurred in Bradon, FLA the guy with the gun would be in jail now, charged with brandishing a weapon. well, he would be charged if Jesse and Al and Eric demand it.
Bwahahahahaha ... I should have read the whole thread beofre lurching forth with a comment. BTW, do you plan on taking ‘sniper training’?
I’ll put $50 on American Indian.

That’s strange, it was from the Deseret News, owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Fwiw, the perp is Vietnamese.
No.
LOL!
I did quite a bit of searching on the Internet. I couldn’t find any news organization outside of Utah, including Fox News, that has been willing to publish this story favorable to the concept of concealed carry.

Thanks.
If he is that close with a knife, he gets a double tap. He can probably cover 20 ft. in a second and he’s on me with a knife. Even with a gun once he is within range I risk getting killed and all it takes is a second.
Further, I am not restrained by having to try and arrest him.
One of the guys pinning down the whack-job that shot Gabby Giffords in the face in Tucson had a concealed weapon. When asked why he didn’t use it, he replied, “The situation was already under control. Shooting him would have been murder.” He could have added “...and a waste of good ammo.”
