Can republicans explain why the “good guy with a gun” narrative never seems to be a thing?

[Brain357]

the Good guy with a gun is probably referring to police and other armed people that are supposed and are paid to protect the Public Brian .

They used it to push concealed carry. And yes they were obviously full of shit. The gun lobby is all lies.

 

[pismoe]

NRA and I plus the Police would tell you that a Private citizen that has a gun in his pocket has NO DUTY to protect you and your ilk Brian .

But the NRA said if only there was one armed good guy....

--------------------- as I said. the NRA reference is probably talking about Police Brian . As I also said , an armed American has no legal obligation to protect anyone with his gun Brian .

it might be because youre focusing on one event and ignoring the estimated up to 2-3 million times a yr guns stop crimes and murder,,,


open your mind a little

Estimated by who?

the CDC,,,
and dont act like you didnt know that, the link has beens posted dozens of times

The CDC say guns prevent million of crimes a year?

Bullshit.

They aren't even allowed to track gun violence, how would they track gun crime prevention?

I say again BULLSHIT.

It was an Obama-mandated study by the CDC.

"The Institute of Medicine and the National Research Council released the results of their research through the CDC last month. Researchers compiled data from previous studies in order to guide future research on gun violence, noting that “almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year."

CDC Study: Use of Firearms for Self-Defense is ‘Important Crime Deterrent’

The estimate are based on other studies. The cdc never did a study, they looked at other studies which are just surveys. You can find surveys where people say they have seen bigfoot and aliens too.

So you don't believe that the Obama administration being as anti-gun as they were, would have at least tried to debunk the other studies?

Sorry, the bridge in NY is sold. But I do have some swamp land in the Sahara I would be willing to part with.

The comments underneath the article you linked to are quite informative, thank you.

With all the carnage in Texas, you’d think someone would step forward. Of course, people with a concealed carry might think they are brave, but when it comes down to an actual public danger, they run like everyone else. Sorry, repubs, your gun only gives you a false sense of bravery.

Like that open carry parade they had a few years back in Dallas where that guy opened fire....all the open-carry guys ran away screaming like little girls.

Yep, secretly they are pussies.

Haha...you Loons are awesome entertainment. Thanks for that.

Because the MSM seldom reports on it. That doesn't conform to the agenda they're trying to push.

False sense of bravery? Break in here and I give myself 50/50 odds of putting one right between your eyes 1st shot.

I think I'd do better with a .22.

Because the fake news liberal media don't publish those stories.

Lol and what are the so-called real news sources waiting for?

Link to these mythical real news organizations??

So in your mind, no news organization is “real” yet you believe stories of a good guy with a gun are being suppressed despite a complete lack of evidence of such a thing. You do realize how dumb you sound right?

Local news organizations run them. The corrupted lying puke national liberal media won't touch them. Go do something useful lib fix Chicago where dozens are shot each week in your liberal war zone and YOUR fake news remains silent.

There was a lot of media coverage of the guy in Homeland, Texas, who went after the church shooter there and is credited with saving a lot of lives because the shooter left the church when this guy arrived and the good guy followed him in his car when he left but he was ex-military, and knew what he was doing.

There were people with guns in the movie theatre in Aurora, Colorado, but because of the strobe lights the shooter was using, and the smoke bombs and the general chaos, they couldn't tell what was going on of even if there was mroe than one shooter.

Unless you have military/police training, it's not likely that you could take on an active shooter effectively. It's not as easy to shoot someone as they make out in the movies. And when the police arrive, how do they know you're a "good guy". You're just another asshole with a gun, shooting at people.

----------------------------------- its as I told you before . The gun that an Armed Citizen may carry is for HIS and his family and friends protection . Sure , he may use the gun to protect YOU but he has no legal obligation to protect you . Carrying a gun does not make a gun carrier a COP BillyB .

But the NRA told us if only one good guy with a gun was there. Wow has that been proven wrong.

True, because he wasn't in the church. He lived in a house a few hundred yards away. It takes a while to cover that much ground.

There were no people with guns in the audience in Aurora CO. It wasn't allowed. Since that part of your post was an outright lie, we can ignore the rest of your sleazy dishonest post.

Your claim about needing military training have also been debunked many times. It's simple another standard leftwing lie. The police have never shot someone who was defending himself with a gun. You just spout one lie after another.

If you are referring to Stephen Willeford who stopped the shooting at First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, he is not "ex-military." He is a plumber and a former NRA instructor.

The shooter however, was a U.S. Air Force veteran who was court martialed for domestic abuse.

Please get your facts straight and refrain from insulting the NRA as a worthless lobbying group who puts firearms in the hands of criminals.

‘Can republicans explain why the “good guy with a gun” narrative never seems to be a thing?’

No.

Because ‘good guy with a gun’ is a myth, a ridiculous contrivance of the right in a failed attempt to ‘justify’ the carrying of concealed firearms where no such ‘justification’ is needed.
