Press 'ignore' terrorist stopped by armed student

A gun rights organization in the United States is accusing the media of trying to conceal the fact that a gunman who attacked students at Jerusalem's Mercaz Harav seminary was stopped by an armed student at the school.

Authorities report that Ytizhak Dadon, 40, was a "private citizen who had a gun license and was able to shoot the gunman with his pistol," according to a statement released today by the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

In its earlier reporting on the tragedy, WND confirmed, "One terrorist reportedly was shot to death by a student who was armed…"

However, the gun rights organization said "the American press is downplaying his heroism because it proves that armed students can stop campus gunmen.".... Mr. Dadon is not going to become a victim of this conspiracy of silence. Elitist American college administrators, the national press, nor anti-gun politicians can sweep this incident under their rug."

The gun rights group said international reports credit Dadon, who studies at the school, had his pistol available when the shooting erupted. "When the gunman emerged from a library, Dadon reportedly shot him twice in the head. The gunman was subsequently shot by the off-duty soldier," the group said.

"Yitzhak Dadon's apparently well-placed bullets interrupted a rampage," Gottlieb said. "What a pity that someone like Mr. Dadon was not in class last April at Virginia Tech.

Israelis commonly carry. It's not so unusual to see someone out shopping with an UZI among his personal effects. Israelis know the value of an armed populace, and they just proved it.

SPREAD THE WORD! ! !

Cultural manipulation (aka: Lying by omission.) It’s something the Drive By’s pride themselves on.

I’m doing some research on the constitution, including teh federalist papers and other reading. The more one reads on the subject of the second amendment, the more obvious it becomes that the delegates that signed the constitution and the state delegates that ratified the contract were assured the right of the public to retain the right to be armed without restriction. This right was not simply for hunting or service in the “national guard”, but for protection from evil doers and an oppressive government.

A well armed society is a polite society.
And a well informed society makes sure it's well armed.

Is it kind of hard to make out the words, considering that the Congress and the courts have collectively been wiping their posteriors with those documents for decades?...

A school in Isreal.

Those are not teachers they are students and the M-16's are quite real.

Nothing like an armed BEAUTIFUL woman IMO, we need to set these ladies loose in our society and watch the baggy pants, backward cap wearing thugs reactions.

No magazines in the M16s, where in the world are they carried when they are in shorts? Note the safe handling, obviously well trained and disciplined IDF reservists?
