Demand Action to End Gun Violence is yet another head of the Mayors Against Illegal Guns, Bloomberg-financed gun-grabbing hydra. The Tweeted pic above is part of the Civilian Disarmament Industrial Complex’s new front in their endless campaign to vilify guns, gun owners and gun rights groups. It’s Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the post-Newtown universal background check thing ran out of gas, the Navy Yard slaughter didn’t move the needle, so . . . why not? We could debate the efficacy of laws that disarm men accused of domestic abuse (before a court appearance), but why bother? Despite the word FACT above, an OPINION by the rabidly anti-gun New York Times (whose owner packs heat) in this image, gun control advocates have no interest in facts. Because the facts aren’t on their side. Nor, thankfully, are millions of law-abiding, right-thinking Americans. The battle continues.
So, if i was one of those guys on the corner wathing the beatdown, could i legally draw my wepon and shoot the attacker? As a CCW carrier, dont i have the right to protect the lives of myself, my family, and also fellow citizens whos life is being threatened?
Very good article. But I think that is one ugly handgun.
I took a trauma course a couple of years ago. It was helpful and I encourage every shooter to take such a course. I expect to take another in the next few months because skills not used are highly perishable.
As a qualified range officer, I’ll intervene on safety issues. In anything else I’ll offer advice or assistance.
First Jim Carrey and now him? It’s like all the 90s has-beens were told by their publicists to troll gun owners.

I have a legally blind uncle that became a very good heart doctor. Being legally blind doesn’t mean one can’t see.
Excellent work, presentation and research. I look forward to seeing more articles by this author here and elsewhere. Obviously not a “Johnny come lately” in the firearms world. Meticulous fact finding and presentation.
Wish the anti crowd would hurry up and move on to something else like hospital deaths, falling off ladders, or parachuting accidents in Nepal.
Duly noted is that the presumed outcome of acquiring of experience and knowledge on the part of the individual is achieving increasing measures of that otherwise elusive goal only vaguely identified as ’understanding’. Some have suggested that the element most often missing when ‘understanding’ has not yet occurred is an absence of suitable ‘References’.
That said:-
Having previously stated to the effect that the underlying basis for the illiberal, digressive secularist, statist movement to be that of attempting to manifest the relative comfort, safety and security of the ‘Garden of the Womb’ into the societal structure — with regard to the question of ‘GUNS’, the answer is simply stated as: “NO GUNS ALLOWED”.
( Exception given, of course only to authorized agents of government. )
Damn!
Do you write doctoral level thesis or scientific research reports for a living? That is the most unintelligible “dazzling with brilliance or baffling with bullshit” I have ever read.
What did he say – in normal English please?
A hefty hospital bill that will, of course, be paid in full by the typical gunshot victim’s generous insurance plan, right?
So a huge chunk of money comes from Medicare and Medicaid. Then more money for court costs.
Some of these statements reek of bad guys shooting bad guys. I’m surprised they didn’t add in prison costs.
As a correction, on the tier 1 m4-k’s, none in use now are chambered in 9mm. They are chambered in 5.56 & loaded with 69-77 grain ammo.
If domestic violence wasn’t so vague and the laws regarding them so abused, they’d almost have a point.
trouble is, sometimes yelling counts as DV, and the one who has the wounds is the one taken not necessarily the one who started the fight. And, bear with me, sometimes a punch is asked for (regardless of gender). By that I mean FOO comes home starts yelling and being aggressive to BAR, is not unreasonable for BAR to do a preemptive hit. Also as others have pointed out false accusations are abound.
Great article!
No more pop-up windows when you open an article please
Seems reasonable enough to me. I still don’t really get the point of walking around with an AR 15 at a state capital. But then again, I suppose you could stand on your head and spit quarters there as well. But I doubt they would post extra police, probably just haul you away in a looney bin truck.
