Did this guy just stop tons of innocent people from getting killed (as it happens in a mall in the country Denmark a few weeks ago (a country with very strict gun control))

I'm looking forward to a few weeks without hearing from the guns are dangerous mob

This guy was a hero. It turns out the state of Indiana only passed the right to carry only 17 days prior to this. Trump would have had this guy meet him at the White House. I am amazed that Biden did not sic the FBI on this guy and had him arrested.

Thanks for the MHO😎

Yeah I seen this he's a true Hero. A God dang good American! Upholding that 2A and keeping others safe.

Don't be a fuckwit, and try push this agenda. You know fine well the shoe can be on the other foot just as easily.

Only a Janky, 1800s Wild West, USA would require an armed populace dishing out civil justice.

[Bratsondanielle]

Well I happen to see it as a good thing. Guess we'll disagree

It's nice when an example of a good guy with a gun who actually gets the job done.

Too bad a police department full of good guys with guns couldn't do the job at Uvalde High School. Sort of like the "good guy with a gun" in the upper left of this scene. I think "Thoughts" and "Prayers" were the last two 2nd Amendment sacrifices.

Each Memorial Day, let's remember the sacrifices that our children have made so our guns can live in freedom.

Am I misunderstanding something? We're comparing a shooting with three dead to a shooting with three dead and calling one not a tragedy and somehow better?

The real difference is that reading this in the newspaper is national news and mourning for one country and a batted eyelash for another.

Too bad there wasn't a good guy with a gun to stop the 279 mass shootings and save 1576 people from being murdered since 2009.

And Let's ignore all the good guys with guns that didn't stop the mass shooter in Uvalde Texas. Congratulations you've found ONE incident where a good guy with a gun possibly limited the death toll in a mass shooting. I guess that was worth 1576 lives. 🙄

[FunkyMonkee]

Why stop at 2009?

[Opinion Owner]

@FunkyMonkee What difference does it make?

[FunkyMonkee]

Exactly.

[Opinion Owner]

@FunkyMonkee You may have just made the dumbest most pointless comment I've ever seen on Gag.

[FunkyMonkee]

I guess you have to be intelligent to understand it.

[Opinion Owner]

@FunkyMonkee No this was the dumbest most pointless comment ever and you're an idiot.

As evidence by this one website along, you’re still going to hear from them, it’s just going to be increasingly shrill and more nonsensical than usual as they try to backpedal and trip over themselves with their pretzel based logic or lack thereof.

[Chazmatazz269]

He definitely mitigated the extent of the tragedy. If you’re paying attention you’ll likely notice how very little attention reports like this will get in the lamestream media. This happens a lot more than a lot of people are willing to admit.

[Danny_dan92]

Yep. Better to allow good citizens to be armed to provide a check on those who have bad intentions

[NamerOfStars]

No- the Greenwood Park Mall is a gun-free zone, so it wasn't a "good Samaritan" so much as a "felon with good timing".

[Anonymous]

What a fucked society you must live in, where shooting each other is celebrated.

[Bratsondanielle]

Lol what? 😆 so a psychopath starts shooting innocent people in a mall, and a heroic citizen take him down... your conclusions is the entire society is fucked up? 😆😆😆

Where the fuck do YOU live miss anonymous?

[Jouth]

[Bratsondanielle]

Nope. Guns are good and more guns are better. It's easy mmkay. But drugs are bad. You shouldn't do drugs mmkay cuz drugs are bad mmkay. And alcohol... don't drink it. It's bad mmkay.

[Jouth]

Guns are bad mmmkayyyyy?

[Bratsondanielle]

Not. Mmkay mmkay. I'm a strong believer in guns mmkay

[Jouth]

Well. Mmkay.

You can have guns, but don't shoot them or use them mmmkaayy?

[Bratsondanielle]

I'll promise you this much: if you don't threaten me, don't rape me, don't attack me, and don't break into my house ; then I will not shoot at you. And that's a pinkyswear. Scouts honor
