What gets me is how the anti nuts always say things like the quoted nut said --- how this isn't "the norm."
If it isn't "the norm" and tragedy is the usual result, then where are the reports? The stories? The victims? The blood? The tragic photos of grieving relatives? The anti-gun newspaper editors would be all over these stories ...
... if they existsed.
It's a gruesome fantasy world they live in.
I can understand at the intellectual level how these people project their fears about themselves on other people, but on a real-life level? Not the kind of fearful life I want to lead.
That sums up the whole deterrent effect of an armed populace. This thug will have to second-guess himself every time he contemplates a robbery like this one.
Sounds like Mike Taylor did just fine. Good job!
As for this quote :
Maura Carabello: "My reaction in general, though, is we are lucky. We are lucky the permit holder is safe."
Some of the comments of the anti's on the KSL message board left me practically cross-eyed! If they can't get around the fact that the good guy used good judgment and only pulled his gun when his life was threatened... well... let's see... they'll just say there's no evidence it actually happened, and the good guy just made it up!
