Here, our liberal local news, KSLA does an idiotic story on a guy who beats up on a girl - and asks, what would you do?
The KSLA office staff goes to a local park, with a huge 300 lb man choking on a woman who is screaming her head off. As cameras roll, they show folks not lifting a hand to help.
I wrote them, informing them that the man is fortunate to be alive, because he would be swiftly staring down the barrel of my Glock if I were present.
I believe these kinds of news stories are asinine to say the least. They put law abiding concealed weapons holders like myself in a situation to draw down on someone. I never intend to draw down on someone unless I plan to shoot, so that actor's life would have been dependent on how quick he dropped to the ground after pulling down on him.
Again - IDIOTIC!
