Abducted woman shoots abductor
After the devastating statistics we’ve heard from John Lott about the systematic media cover-up of incidents in which guns were employed to ward off crimes, the following almost seems like a man-bites-dog story. Man, after harassing woman for months, abducts her in car and holds gun to her head. Woman pulls out 9 mm pistol from hidden location on her hip and shoots man in face, saving her life. And here’s the man-bites-dog part: a newspaper actually reports this successful use of a firearm in self-defense. There’s a catch, however. The newspaper in question is the Northwest Indiana News. Not exactly the New York Times, or even the Chicago Tribune. Posted by Lawrence Auster at October 09, 2003 09:44 AM | Send Comments
The Centers for Disease Control has just ‘passively’ affirmed the facts we already knew. The Washington Times Editorial begins: “The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a study last week that states there is no evidence to prove gun-control laws are effective in preventing violence. No kidding.” http://www.washtimes.com/op-ed/20031006-085844-8119r.htm Posted by: Joel LeFevre on October 10, 2003 2:04 AM |
