The leftwing douche bags all claim this has never happened and never could happen. Of course, whenever a left winger makes a claim, reality almost always immediately steps in to prove him wrong.

Hey Media: Another Nightclub Shooting, This Time No Massacre

A man with a concealed carry permit in South Carolina prevented a massacre in a nightclub. But this example of Second Amendment saving lives hasn’t garnered media interests. According to a report on The Federalist, “A man with a concealed carry license stopped a shooter after the latter opened fire on a crowd of people at a nightclub in South Carolina early Sunday morning.”

Writer Bre Payton explained, “After getting into a fight with another person, the 32-year-old suspect pulled out a gun and began to fire at a crowd of people gathered outside of the club, hitting and injuring four, WISTV reports. One of the victims, who holds a concealed-carry permit, shot back in self-defense, hitting the suspect in the leg.”

The article continued:

The suspect has been charged with four counts of attempted murder. He was also charged for unlawfully carrying a weapon and for carrying one while committing a violent crime.

The concealed carrier who shot back won’t be facing any charges, as his permit to carry was valid.

One of the people at the club, Renada Irby, praised the quick-thinking individual (who didn’t want to be named) for saving lives: “If it wasn’t for him, I think it would have been more people injured than what it was. I don’t think he [the gunman] was going to be stopped.”
 
When I was a teen, I used to read the "The Armed Citizen" logs in my dad's NRA mag. Every month -- there would be a couple dozen local news reports excepted where folks exercised defensive gun use. I'm sure that still exist in NRA literature somewhere. They never ran out of material for that feature..
