But, but, but... I thought veterans shouldn’t have guns because they were all crazy?!! /s

If the Marine did not pull the trigger, it doesn’t go into the statistics as a successful defensive gun use. Still, this is one of the many things I like about Marines - unlike congresscritters the vast majority of Marines are always faithful (Semper Fi).
I wonder what help the girls from Handgun Control would prefer in this situation: a Marine with a gun, or a limp-wrist lawyer with a protection order. I’ll take the Marine, if I’m not armed at the time.

The West Allis police chief told the news network that these types of situations are case by case judgement calls for gun owners. He said that while the police department does not encourage others to do the same, he appreciates citizens looking out for each other when they do it legally and are willing to accept the consequences.

The vet was fortunate the police didn't take him down, particularly since he had his gun drawn. Some police don't support citizen right-to-carry laws. And in those states where it is allowed, try walking down the street with a holstered gun in sight and see how long it is before you are challenged by police (or worse).

Notice how a positive concealed carry story has to cross the ocean to get published?

The perp is lucky that the Marine didn’t put a round in his kneecap or in his Butt.
