You know, you have a point. To bad there is not a list of defensive gun uses that such articles and incidents could be posted to for future reference.
Also, is there a statistical source that shows what percent of crimes are conducted with illegally obtained firearms vs legally obtained?
The NRA magazine has THE ARMED CITIZEN, which lists newspaper accounts of such things happening across the USA.
Years ago, the NRA was highly criticized for reporting such news, then they pointed out that those articles came from National Newspapers across the USA. Don’t like it? Blame the newspapers for reporting it!
