Good guy with a gun saves police officer
POLICE ARE crediting a vigilant gun owner with saving the life of an Upper Darby cop Friday after he saw the officer being attacked and surrounded by a large group of teens.
“There were 40 kids. If it wasn’t for the good Samaritan stepping forward, he’d have been dead meat,” Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said. “There’s no doubt they would have attacked him.”

But I’ve been told that the police won’t be able to tell the armed licensed civilian from the bad guys. Is that not how it really works?

“…and they all move in towards the officer…”
They were just expressing their heart felt thanks for all the free education. We should give the yoots more free stuff. Clearly with just a little more loving help from .gov they would all be fine.

Can’t have happened, Bloomberg’s groups all say this never ever happens.

Please remind me how many lives are saved each year because someone was armed? “If it saves just one life, it is worth it.” I heard that somewhere.

Is it time to call for “Common Sense Teen Safety Laws?” to help reduce teen violence?

It’s worth noting that I remember “Media Mike” Chitwood from his stint as Chief in Portland, Maine. This guy is not your friend…
