11 Incidents in Which Lawful Gun Owners Made a Difference

We rarely hear about these cases in the news, as the prevention of a mass killing is too anticlimactic for most news outlets and the fact that more law-abiding citizens with guns reduce crime, does not fit the narrative of media that wants people scared, helpless and controllable, rather than confident, self-reliant and empowered.

However, according to the CDC, almost every major study finds that at least 2,000 times a day, Americans use their firearms in self-defense. Countless murders are being prevented, and other major crimes stopped, because Americans responsibly exercise their constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

Here are 11 incidents just from last month, where lawful gun owners stopped a crime and potentially saved lives. Good reasons to get a carry permit and to NEVER go into a “gun-free zone.”
