I’m going to go out on a limb here and predict it was blonde haired Norwegian types. Absolute thugs, and most likely “Trumpsters”.

Strange how we get a detailed description of the vehicle, and that it was a female driver and a male passenger who fired the shot, but no description of their race.

Why would that be?

A six-year-old boy was tragically shot and killed in a suspected road rage attack after his mother gave another driver the finger.


Shame on Mom for having road rage.

May her son RIP.

ok but just giving someone the finger doesn't give the other person the right to shoot at them.
That's not enough threat to shoot at someone.

Valid point. Bad idea to flip people off.

Its something that we can do over here. And go home afterwards.

But you don't get to compensate for having a small penis by carrying a gun around with you.

Its a cross we have to bear. Being able to leave the house and come home afterwards is some compensation but there is still that gap in my life.

Except the women of London...right? Your muslim mayor in London stated that London is not safe for women or girls......

No big city is safe for unaccompanied women or girls after dark unless there are a lot of people out.

Wrong...we are told Britain is safer because they banned and confiscated guns.....

Women and girls are not safe in London....the capitol of this gun free paradise....

These American women were safer because they had guns....

Lancaster Woman Scares Off Bat-Wielding Attackers By Pulling Gun On Them

LANCASTER, Ohio - It happened along a walking path in Lancaster.

Dinah Burns is licensed to carry a concealed gun, but she'd only recently started taking her weapon while walking her dog.

Based on what happened, it looks like she'll make a point of carrying from now on.

"I think if they'd gotten any closer, I probably would have fired,” said Burns.

It was Monday when Burns was on a footpath near Sanderson Elementary School.

"Two gentlemen came out of the woods, one holding a baseball bat, and said 'You're coming with us'."

The men weren't deterred by Dinah's dog Gracie.

"I said, 'Well, what do you want?,' and as I was saying that I reached in to my pocket and slipped my gun out, slipped the safety off as I pulled it out. As I was doing that the other gentleman came toward me and raised the baseball bat. And, I pointed the gun at them and said, 'I have this and I'm not afraid to use it.'"

The men took off and so far have eluded police. Dinah posted about the incident on Facebook to alert friends and neighbors, to criticism by some.

"Most of the males' opinion was, 'Why didn't you shoot them?'"

Easy to second-guess a decision made under pressure, based on her concealed carry training, and police agree.

"To get out of a situation, back out, get out of it as much as you can without having to discharge your firearm."

"I will say it's a good thing to go from a place of danger to a place of safety, however you get that done,” said Sgt. Matt Chambers, Lancaster Police.

"Very thankful that it turned out the way it did, and hope it doesn't happen again, but I will be prepared."

What I want you to know on Gun Violence Awareness Day | Fox News

I correctly listened to my instincts; I had a feeling that my life was in danger in that elevator and prepared myself mentally for what was potentially to come.

I ran to my car in an attempt to escape and, before I could even get my entire body in my car, I was tackled by my attacker.

This man quickly overpowered me, stabbed at me with a knife, clamped his hand over my mouth multiple times, and repeatedly tried forcing me in the passenger seat of my car while telling me, “We’re going.”

The entire time this was happening, a rusted, serrated knife was being stabbed towards my abdomen and held at my face.

I had been hit in the face, thrown over my driver’s side console, and had rips in my tights from his hands trying to force my legs up and over into the passenger seat.

There are some individuals that think gun owners are “trigger happy” and wanting to pull their weapons out at the first opportunity. There is nothing further from the truth.

The night I was attacked, I fought like hell for my life before reaching for my gun. I kicked, I screamed, I had all ten fingernails ripped off and bloodied from scratching and trying to fight my way out of a literal life and death situation.
Ultimately, I accessed my gun, shot my attacker multiple times, and saved my life. He will be spending years in prison for what he did to me.

Using a gun in self-protection is not a decision one makes lightly; in fact, I never dreamed that I would be forced into a situation where I would have to do so. However, I also never imagined such evil existing in the world so that I would be powerless, wounded, on my back and unable to physically force my attacker off of me.

I owned a gun and had been trained on how to use it. I know how to safely carry and that a gun is a serious and significant weapon; it is not to be used carelessly. Naysayers and people with opposing opinions may try to undermine my situation with hypotheticals. I cannot answer these questions. All I can do is tell the facts of my story and the true account of how I saved my own life.

What I want you to know on Gun Awareness Day is that a gun in the hands of a potential victim is not improperly placed; it can be the only thing keeping her from being brutally raped and murdered.

Without my gun, I would not be alive today.


Guns are not the problem in America; men like my attacker -- who are willing to violently change one person’s life for no reason except for pure evil – are the problem.

Be safe at all times. Be aware of your surroundings. Trust your instincts. Always be able to protect yourself. Refuse to be a victim, and instead be a fighter and a survivor. Live to tell your tale and make a criminal regret the day he chose you as a “soft target.” My gun saved my life, and one could save yours too.

Waking up to an armed intruder in your house would be any home owner’s worst nightmare. If you’re a single mother with two young kids in the house, finding a man wielding a machete in your bedroom closet immediately kicks you into “momma bear” mode.

That’s what happened to a California woman who woke up to the sound of a man rummaging through her walk-in closet. The thief — Ocean Burger (his name, not a restaurant) — was armed with a number of knives and a machete when the un-named woman grabbed a handgun and confronted him.

From ksbw.com . . .


[Investigators] say Burger ignored orders to leave and when the homeowner fired several warning shots he allegedly advanced towards her, that’s when the mother fired at the accused burglar hitting him in the leg. And California law may be on her side.

Warning shots are never a good idea and could even put you in legal jeopardy in many jurisdictions. In this case, they not only wasted perfectly good (and expensive) ammunition, but probably led Burger to believe she wasn’t serious about actually shooting him.

After advancing on the woman, the round in his leg apparently convinced Burger that he was wrong.

The good news is California actually has a castle doctrine law on the books. The woman had no duty to retreat and was legally justified in using deadly force to defend herself and her children.

“There is a presumption that favors the homeowner they’re presumed that the person is in imminent fear of either death or great bodily injury,” said Ellen Campos, assistant district attorney for San Benito county. …

California Woman Shoots Machete-Wielding Burglar She Found in Her Closet - The Truth About Guns
=============

How did guns keep this child safe ?

At that moment, they didn't.......

How did guns keep 1.1 million Americans who used their legal guns to stop rape, robbery and murder, safe?

The question you don't ask, is why this individual chose to fire that weapon. There are 600 million guns in private hands in the U.S....over 19.5 million Americans can legally carry guns in public for self defense...

They did not shoot their guns at anyone....

The problem isn't having a gun, the problem is whatever created this individual.

We have the democrat party. When our police catch violent gun criminals, democrat party judges and prosecutors let them out of jail and prison over and ovre again...it is these individuals doing over 95% of our gun crime and gun murder...

The question should be, why are they releasing the criminals who actually do shootings like this instead of keeping them in jail.

Don't worry tommy...your country is entering this stage of crime....you will have to deal with it yourselves..

Link us to your 1.1 mil claim please - Studies by your beloved (and corrupt) NRA or other barrel stoker sites unacceptable

so does he have to use your anti gun sites?...

Nope, just a source to prove he didn’t pull 1.1 million butt nuggets out of his prodigious ass.
You got one?

your the one who said that to him not me...apparently you dont have better source either do you?...

No one can disprove an ass nugget Harry my boy.
Up to him to back up those with FACTS.
1.1m?

to him he did back them up.....its up to you to disprove his "facts".....

Vagabond63 has debunked his figures many time on here Harry. he will be along at some point to do it again.

No, he hasn't....he says ..."I debunk thy numbers...." and then goes away.......I have shown the research from the Centers for Disease Control, and the Department of Justice, two anti-gun government agencies....

Your figures are 50 years old in some cases and cant be verified anyway.I cant be arsed going over it with you.

The main research was done in the 90s by Gary Kleck, followed by the Centers for Disease Control, and the Department of Justice, under orders by bill clinton to disprove Kleck's research.......and they couldn't...

And at the time in the 90s there were 200 million guns in private hands and only 4.7 million Americans carrying guns in public for self defense...

Now?

There are 600 million guns and over 19.4 million Americans carrying guns in public for self defense...so tell us how the defensive gun use numbers from the 90s went down as more Americans were able to protect themselves......go ahead, we'll be over here laughing at you...
Yes.....actual research, with obama telling the CDC to go through all gun research in 2013....and coming up with 500,000-3 million defensive gun uses...


You guys can't hide the research....

So somewhere between 500,000 and three million?

Are you really this dumb...I gave you 17 studies...obama's CDC reviewed all of the gun research......you idiot.....

Cool, but you’ve yet to define an instance of “defensive use” ... You clown

And the Department of Justice research under bill clinton....conducted by two, rabid, anti-gunners...

The NSPOF survey is quite similar to the Kleck and Gertz instrument and provides a basis for replicating their estimate.

Each of the respondents in the NSPOF was asked the question, "Within the past 12 months, have you yourself used a gun, even if it was not fired, to protect yourself or someone else, or for the protection of property at home, work, or elsewhere?"

Answers in the affirmative were followed with "How many different times did you use a gun, even if it was not fired, to protect yourself or property in the past 12 months?" Negative answers to the first DGU question were followed by "Have you ever used a gun to defend yourself or someone else?" (emphasis in original).

Each respondent who answered yes to either of these DGU questions was asked a sequence of 30 additional questions concerning the most recent defensive gun use in which the respondent was involved, including the respondent's actions with the gun, the location and other circumstances of the incident, and the respondent's relationship to the perpetrator. Forty-five respondents reported a defensive gun use in 1994 against a person (exhibit 7).

Given the sampling weights, these respondents constitute 1.6 percent of the sample and represent 3.1 million adults.

============

A somewhat more conservative NSPOF estimate is shown in the column of exhibit 7 that reflects the application of the criteria used by Kleck and Gertz to identify "genuine" defensive gun uses.

Respondents were excluded on the basis of the most recent DGU description for any of the following reasons: the respondent did not see a perpetrator; the respondent could not state a specific crime that was involved in the incident; or the respondent did not actually display the gun or mention it to the perpetrator.

Applying those restrictions leaves 19 NSPOF respondents (0.8 percent of the sample), representing 1.5 million defensive users.

This estimate is directly comparable to the well-known estimate of Kleck and Gertz, shown in the last column of exhibit 7. While the NSPOF estimate is smaller, it is statistically plausible that the difference is due to sampling error.
========

Some troubling comparisons.

If the DGU numbers are in the right ballpark, millions of attempted assaults, thefts, and break-ins were foiled by armed citizens during the 12- month period. According to these results, guns are used far more often to defend against crime than to perpetrate crime. (Firearms were used by perpetrators in 1.07 million incidents of violent crime in 1994, according to NCVS data.)

You have been shown to be an idiot....I have backed up everything I posted, even as you hurt your back moving the goal posts every single time...

You are an idiot...you have no rational reason for anything you believe...

But thanks....I needed to consolidate some of this info. and your stupid posts gave me a reason to do it...

OR perhaps I’ve seen one too many of your 12,000 word cut n pastes?
Yes indeed - consolidate in order to have more barrel stoking c&p’s for immediate regurgitation!
One in 200 Americans thwarts a crime or defends themself with a gun each year?

Tommy made a challenge.....I posted a response that showed once again that he, like you and the other anti-gun extremists have no rational arguments for what you believe.

I’m a gun owner loony bird. This makes me an “anti-gun extremist”
You shot your street cred in the foot f’n YEARS ago.

Yeah......and anti-gun extremists want their own guns, but want to take guns away from everyone else.....you idiot...you are the classic example.

You have a vivid imagination but no, I want no such thing.

Yeah.....let's test that out...

Your thoughts on ...

--gun registration

--gun licenses

--universal background checks

--magazine limits

--AR-15 rifles...

That list should let us know a lot about your position on 2nd Amendment Rights...

Sure ...

100% universal BG checks including sales involving unlicensed sellers.
3 day waiting period and expansion of checks to include domestic violence and obvious mental health challenges.
4 hours mandatory classroom and range training.
Mandatory training & licensing on concealed carry.

Over 90% of the country want these things including over 70% of NRA members (not that this remains a badge of honor ;-)

YOU are the outlier.

The mandatory training and licensing...will they be free?

The public trainings - Yes

So the trainers are all slaves then?
Then won't be compensated for their time and labor doing all this training?

Its almost impossible to process this incident. What is wrong with you people ?

That kid could have just as easily drank some Drano.

And it's not the gun's fault it's the fault of the idiot parents.

Maybe we should require licenses to have kids

His parents didnt kill him. America did.

That's the stupidest shit I've ever heard...lol

People get shot every day in the US and you always say that nothing can be done. Yup, you killed him.

And it almost always happens in places controlled by people who think like you and follow policies, like gun control, that you advocate for and approve of.

The simplest fix would seem to be making sure ideologues like you never hold any power in any public place.

We know exactly what can be done...when we catch gun criminals we lock them up for 30 years to life....

Unfortunately....the democrat party, our left wing party, keeps letting known, violent, repeat gun offenders out of jail and prison...

This is why we have gun crime in our democrat party controlled cities.......

There are people who are not nice. Perhaps in your neck of the woods its all peaches and cream. Anyone who has lived in those areas or in neighborhoods abutting those areas or in cities that see endless attacks on innocent people even without weapons knows the realities. You even see a small percentage with all the videos that are available. And it doesn't end there for the people affected. But for you it does not matter.

Don't waste your time on that liar.

He's just a hack pushing propaganda and bullshit.

We are not subject, like you.

Most developed countries have a better life quality than most Americans, more educated, healthier, higher life expectancy rates....less crimes and homicides. How did owning a gun make you better than them again ?

Well...you mean after World War 1 and World War 2...when we went over to Europe with guns to save them.......or after the Europeans gave up their guns, then the German socialists murdered 12 million unarmed men, women and children?

And now, as the United States protects Europe with our blood and money...our military keeps Russia from taking over the continent, and keeps German from invading it's neighbors.....so that Europeans can live in their welfare states as we protect them, and provide their advanced medical technology and all of their real technological innovation....

Do you mean that......?

If the Europeans actually had to pay their own way.....have their young men and women serve in their militaries, pay for their militaries.....and actually work for a living....maybe they wouldn't have time to feel superior to the U.S....


Meanwhile, our citizens use our legal guns to save lives every single year....1.1 million times a year our citizens use their legal guns to stop rape, robberies and murders...

And, shithead.......Europe is not the Europe it used to be....3rd world immigrant drug gangs are using fully automatic miltary rifles and grenades to enforce their drug trade....

So violence is coming to Europe.....

The US was liberated by thr help of France. If they didn't enter world War 2 you would also be speaking German now.
Thr US ouldnt even defeat the poor Vietnamese you think thry could've defeated the Germans or the soviets solo?

Dude I love this country and I would fight for it, but most Americans live worse than their counter parts in many industrial countries. What did the gun ownership do to make their lives better ?
They still get killed by the thousands, kids have to learn how to escape a mass shooting ? Fascinating isn't it ?

The ones getting murdered by guns in this country are criminals...over 70-80% of the victims of gun murder are criminals murdered by other criminals during criminal activity or being part of the criminal underworld...of the rest of the victims, the vast majority of them are friends, family or associates of the criminals caught in the attempted murder of the actual criminals......

Compared to that, however, normal Americans use their legal guns 1.1 million times a year, or more, to stop rapes, robberies and murders.......

If you aren't a criminal, if you don't have a criminal in your family, if you don't associate with criminals and then, if you don't live in a democrat party town, city or voting district, the odds of you being murdered or even hurt by a gun are almost zero......

Blah blah...I've lived in a gun free country and living in the US for 2 decades both cities I've lived in are big cities. Thousands of deaths in here, from criminal activity, family disputes, school shootings, workplace homicides...where I grew up worst cases is someone getting stabbed or punched no dead bodies.

You have no clue about the rest of the world, you became numb and accustomed to hearing about people dying.

Median income doesn't tell you the whole story sir.

Yeah, and we paid them back...twice...bailing out their asses in World War 1 and then, when the idiots got steam rolled by the German Socialists, Americans died in the 10s of thousands to free France.......

And without the U.S. today, France, Britain, the rest of Europe would be speaking Russian...

You should always be grateful to the French.

Not entirely fair since income does not matter that much if you have things like free public heath care, reasonable housing, subsidized food, etc.
We likely have more homelessness, unemployment, etc., than most countries.
We for sure have one of the highest incarceration rates in the world.
We are not even very good at literacy, infant mortality, or life span.

Dude the minute you exit the airport you see the contrast.

And the only reason they have what they have is the United States pays for their national security through our men, women and treasure...our military....their medicine and medical advancements come from our research, and their lifestyle is created by our technological advancements as they sit at home and live on welfare.......

If they actually had to staff up their militaries, make their militaries combat functional, pay for their own medical advancements and medicines, and create their own technology, they wouldn't be able to afford their welfare states...........you idiot.

Lie to someone else .
All I see around are European cars (BMW, audi, Ferrari, Lamborghini...)

Fragrances and make up for women the best out there are European brands.
Best restaurants are from European cuisine.

Dude apart from some nice areas in big cities most homes in the US are old and beat up. Houses in Tennessee and Ohio that go for 40 to 50k where most people live. As far as cars, you don't need it in Europe they have a good transportation systems.

Norway 51k

How much of their GDP is state owned oil?

Dude apart from some nice areas in big cities most homes in the US are old and beat up.

Lots of brand new homes in Norway, Denmark and Germany?

How does square footage compare?

As far as cars, you don't need it in Europe they have a good transportation systems.

Plus, gas is what, triple what we pay? More?

One of the biggest positives is that you can go to the shops without being shot and send your kids to school without them being slaughtered.

You focus on the material and that seems to be a conservative trait. Quality of life cannot be measured by just one metric.

Not in majority Muslim areas and remind us having your head hacked off is better then being shot.

Yes , the whole European experience can be summed up by one awful incident a decade ago. Can you dress yourself in the morning you fuckwit ?

one incident I guess all the attacks in France and Belgium and Germany never happened right? No no go zones in all European Countries right boob?

I will pay you $1000 if you can provide me with a an address of a no go zone in Europe. GO!!!

The US was liberated by thr help of France. If they didn't enter world War 2 you would also be speaking German now.

The French were the difference between the Allies winning and losing?
The French entered WWII? On what date?

Dude I love this country and I would fight for it, but most Americans live worse than their counter parts in many industrial countries.

Cool story!
Can you show our median income vs. the median income of your "many industrial countries"?

Not entirely fair since income does not matter that much if you have things like free public heath care, reasonable housing, subsidized food, etc.
We likely have more homelessness, unemployment, etc., than most countries.
We for sure have one of the highest incarceration rates in the world.
We are not even very good at literacy, infant mortality, or life span.

Letting them run free wouldn't help most Americans live better.

Not like Cuba, eh?

You probably haven't visited thr likes of Norway, Denmark, Germany, Japan and even France. Very happy population hardly any homeless, healthy individuals, great infrastructure, 5 to 6 weeks vacation a year, easy and cheaper access to higher education, no one goes bankrupt if they have to go to the hospital,

Dude the minute you exit the airport you see the contrast.

No, actually, they are not.......outside of democrat party controlled cities, the U.S. is as safe or safer than European countries, and the European countries are growing more and more dangerous each year.....as the 3rd world immigrants take control of organized crime.......

For England and Wales, we added together three crime categories: "violence against the person, with injury," "most serious sexual crime," and "robbery." This produced a rate of 775 violent crimes per 100,000 people.

And when you talk about gun violence, the majority of gun murder victims...over 70-80% of the victims, are not normal Americans.....they are criminals, murdered by other criminals in democrat party controlled cities.....and of the rest, the vast majority of gun murder victims are the friends and family...and sadly children, of career criminals and gang members murdered when they are caught in the murder attempt on the actual criminal....

As John Nolte puts it over at Breitbart....in MAGA country, we have guns, we just don't have gun crime....but in blue states and blue cities, they have almost all of the gun murder.....

You don't understand America Tommy, and you will understand gun violence, it is coming to Britain and the rest of Europe...

I'm so glad I didn't grow up as a kid in thr US, we had 0 fear of getting kidnapped, shot or molested unlike most American kids....you won't know what I'm talking about, you grew up in a very Hostile and tough environment, that you need a gun to feel safe.

In 2 previous studies, it has been demonstrated that fatality rates due to firearms for urban and rural counties are essentially equivalent both in the overall population and specifically in children and adolescents.11,12 Rural and urban differences have been noted regarding the cause of injury or death, with suicide and unintentional firearm deaths occurring at a higher rate in rural counties and deaths from firearm homicide occurring at a higher rate in urban counties.11,12

Boy, 6, shot and killed after mum gave another driver the finger on school-run

Aiden Leos was sitting in the back of his family car when he was shot and killed as a result of what is believed to be a road rage attack

www.mirror.co.uk

Its almost impossible to process this incident. What is wrong with you people ?

We are not subject, like you.

Most developed countries have a better life quality than most Americans, more educated, healthier, higher life expectancy rates....less crimes and homicides. How did owning a gun make you better than them again ?

Well...you mean after World War 1 and World War 2...when we went over to Europe with guns to save them.......or after the Europeans gave up their guns, then the German socialists murdered 12 million unarmed men, women and children?

And now, as the United States protects Europe with our blood and money...our military keeps Russia from taking over the continent, and keeps German from invading it's neighbors.....so that Europeans can live in their welfare states as we protect them, and provide their advanced medical technology and all of their real technological innovation....

Do you mean that......?

If the Europeans actually had to pay their own way.....have their young men and women serve in their militaries, pay for their militaries.....and actually work for a living....maybe they wouldn't have time to feel superior to the U.S....


Meanwhile, our citizens use our legal guns to save lives every single year....1.1 million times a year our citizens use their legal guns to stop rape, robberies and murders...

And, shithead.......Europe is not the Europe it used to be....3rd world immigrant drug gangs are using fully automatic miltary rifles and grenades to enforce their drug trade....

So violence is coming to Europe.....

The US was liberated by thr help of France. If they didn't enter world War 2 you would also be speaking German now.
Thr US ouldnt even defeat the poor Vietnamese you think thry could've defeated the Germans or the soviets solo?

Dude I love this country and I would fight for it, but most Americans live worse than their counter parts in many industrial countries. What did the gun ownership do to make their lives better ?
They still get killed by the thousands, kids have to learn how to escape a mass shooting ? Fascinating isn't it ?

The ones getting murdered by guns in this country are criminals...over 70-80% of the victims of gun murder are criminals murdered by other criminals during criminal activity or being part of the criminal underworld...of the rest of the victims, the vast majority of them are friends, family or associates of the criminals caught in the attempted murder of the actual criminals......

Compared to that, however, normal Americans use their legal guns 1.1 million times a year, or more, to stop rapes, robberies and murders.......

If you aren't a criminal, if you don't have a criminal in your family, if you don't associate with criminals and then, if you don't live in a democrat party town, city or voting district, the odds of you being murdered or even hurt by a gun are almost zero......

Blah blah...I've lived in a gun free country and living in the US for 2 decades both cities I've lived in are big cities. Thousands of deaths in here, from criminal activity, family disputes, school shootings, workplace homicides...where I grew up worst cases is someone getting stabbed or punched no dead bodies.

You have no clue about the rest of the world, you became numb and accustomed to hearing about people dying.

Don't really care about the rest of the world.

See.......that link you have is bullshit....do you know why it is bullshit....?

This little bit right here....

fatal firearm injuries in children and adolescents <20 years of age in the United States.

At what point is a 15 year old gang member a regular child?

At what point is a 17,18,19 year old considered a "Child?"


They use the <20 because so few actual children die from accidental and gun murder....they have to use "under 20" so they can roll in the 15 year old gang members who are shooting each other on the orders of their gangs as part of that number.....you dumb asshole......

What is it with you gun grabbers...you always have to lie to push your agenda....

From Wisqars...the actual CDC data for children <1 to 14...I use this age range to exclude 15 year old gang members...of course, there are younger gang members shooting people, but this is a good start...

Out of 72 million children in the U.S....how many actual innocent children are murdered with guns?

For 2019....

269...

So tell us.....doofus....how does 269 out of 72 million children make guns a leading cause of death...?

Again...how does 51 accidental gun deaths out of 72 million equal a leading cause of death...

You anti-gunners lie every time you post data because the actual data doesn't support anything you believe...

100 children a year die on their bicycles.........51 from gun accidents....

300 children die drowning......51 from gun accidents...

You are an idiot....
