While anti-gunners spend millions to try and convince us to give up our right to keep and bear arms, armed citizens are out there every day showing us why we shouldnât.
We canât outline them all because, frankly, we donât have the time. There are just too many of them.
But we do try to acknowledge them when we can.
A prime example is an armed citizen in Dekalb County, Georgia who is still standing while the bad guy isnât.
A man is dead after wrestling with another man over a gun, DeKalb County officials say.
Police responded to The Terraces at Snapfinger condominiums in Decatur just after 10 p.m. Saturday to a person shot call.
When police arrived, they found a 19-year-old who had been shot. He died on the scene, according to police.
So he wasnât just a thief but an attempted gun thief.
Hereâs the deal, though. When someone is trying to steal your gun from you when itâs in your physical possession, thereâs absolutely no reason to believe that they wonât use it on you as soon as they have control of it.
Georgia is a Stand Your Ground state, but that wouldnât matter in a case like this. Escape isnât an option when youâre in a physical altercation with the bad guy.
Officials say they donât expect to file charges against the armed citizen, which is how it should be.
Look, in a perfect world, this wouldnât happen. People wouldnât steal things, especially guns. Unfortunately, we donât live in that world. Weâre stuck with this one.
That means criminals will look to prey on people who they think they can prey upon. If behooves people to become armed citizens.
This is not a property crime, folks. This wasnât a âif this matters more than someoneâs lifeâ kind of thing. This was literally the armed citizen or the thief. Thatâs what was on the docket and, thankfully, the good guy with a gun was victorious.
If we see enough stories like these and if they were publicized enough, we might start to see even more of a dip in violent crime than weâve been seeing over the last couple of years from the peak in 2020.
The truth is that bad guys donât want to die any more than the rest of us. If they know theyâre risking their lives with some of this stuff, theyâll simply stop doing it…
