Still searching for the good guy with the gun

2023-10-30 22:40:34.388401+01 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

Texas pediatrician, 52, is stabbed to death by knifeman, 24, who 'came out of nowhere' while she was sitting at a picnic table outside her apartment and 'checked her pulse' before fleeing.

Witness said 17 residents came out with guns after hearing the doctor scream

Apparently none of them were good guys.

Recent quote from a Chattanooga Police Officer, in person. "Not enough of the right people are armed".. that being said, I might be the "right person", and while I am often armed and have been in some armed interactions, it ain't that easy. Especially if you understand both the law and effective "safe" usage.

That being said, a recent well armed nutcase at an amusement park may have run into such a GGWG, as reports are varied and it's hard (not impossible) to double-tap yourself. Currently a suicide. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/u...lorado-amusement-park-rcna122895
