There sure seem to be a lot of these incidents lately. If the current gun control fever goes the way the feverish want, there will be a lot more because criminals don’t follow laws. So I think it’s important to get this information out into the public so that people will know — guns are used all the time to protect gunowners and their families and NO, they’re not often used wrongly. That’s media manipulation and not actual truth.
