We’re the Only Ones. Not You. Us..

A knife-wielding grocery store employee attacked eight co-workers Friday, seriously injuring five before a witness pulled a gun and stopped him, police said.

Let’s see…knife-wielding maniac, everybody being victimized, no cops around, what will stop this guy…?

Not resisting? Nope.

Giving him what he wants? Uh, I think he’s showing us what he wants.

A hoplophobe? Sorry.

An armed citizen? Bingo!

Lesson here for all to see? A moral person with a gun can not only defend themselves, but also those around them.

“Sour grapes” reaction from “The Only Ones“?

Higgins said police were pulling into the parking lot as Cope was confronting the attacker.

“We commend him,” Higgins said. “But we don’t encourage people to take that kind of risk. He could have been hurt.”

What kind of risk does Higgins recommend people take? Waiting around for them to respond doesn’t have risks?

And note the armed citizen resolved this without firing a shot–that is, rather than a gun in private hands being used to kill, here’s a real world example of a citizen using a handgun to restore the peace and save lives–both of the victim and the attacker.

It’s fortunate this happened in Tennessee. Here in Los Angeles, the psycho’s victims would have been expected to die quietly and not rock the boat by defending themselves.
