"We are literally saying that you'll get more fame from mass killing innocent people, than you will if you use a gun to save the lives of innocent people" hit it on the head man, couldn't say it any better and I wish this wasn't the case. its really sad
I was in high school when Columbine happened. I had never heard of a shooting before that. Seeing the shooters' pictures plastered all over TV with endless fawning over them ("what could have made them do this!?" etc) Even as a kid I knew this was a bad reaction, and would cause lots of copycats
This woman deserves a medal. It’s mind boggling how this story isn’t all over mainstream media. Salute to you ma’am! Thank you for taking action and saving lives.
Maybe the president of the USA would do the honours. As an outsider, why should he have any wish not to? He expects to be re-elected doesn't he? Garner some more votes. Swing another state or two.
It’s not mind boggling at all. The story simply did not fit the narrative of the lefty’s news outlet’s. CNN, MSNBC etc. you want true and accurate news reports then you have to watch FOX news only. The other 2 are paid by the left to tell lies.
I live in Charleston and this was covered the next morning on the local news and when the the police said that no charges would be filed after the witnesses confirmed the woman’s story. I was disappointed that it didn’t get more attention.
Some whiny troll who claims to be a British subject on a gun blog I frequent was trying his hardest to handwave this away. "It happened once. So what? What about what about what about?"
And just think, a whole precinct worth of tehas pigs all stood down like a bunch of cowards to allow as much carnage as possible in a kiddie sk000/. NOW... I'd gaurantee it was orchestrated for political use, that's how evil these power thieves are. Didn't these pigs have a ms drill, like ALWAYS, just before this sk000/ crime?!?!?
It makes a difference, because the shooter got his gun illegally. The gun laws (in this real life scenario) only affected the "good guy". Some (not all) gun laws take the guns out of the hands of good guys and they end up in the hands of bad guys. Yes, it matters a lot!!! An overzealous gun law could have prevented this woman from having a gun at the party.
“We are literally saying you will get more fame from mass killing innocent people then you will if you use a gun to save the lives of other people” Wow…. That’s an incredibly eye opening statement man, keep up the great work 👏🏼
I’m glad that the media didn’t flip the story and make her look like a menace to society. She did the right thing and I’m glad that she’s not in jail or court.
Of course more coverage with a mass killing of innocent people, that's the mission of the left. Let crime be legalized and let go to make abolishing the 2nd amendment make their case. All deliberate and not a care about who gets hurt while making their case. How stupid they think we are.
They still want us to try and take a mental health test in order to buy a gun. Not all of us feel or think the same not all of us live in the same living conditions just leave the gun rights alone. Need to work on mental health from the bottom up not from the gun down. You will still be making a certain percentage of the population open to their rights when it should be open to all and be left alone.
Colion The stats you’re quoting with hands fist and feet along with knives aren’t just A.R. 15s. The FBI Statistics you are quoting are referring to all rifles combined
@@longgone9869 so that means AR-15s are only a percentage of rifles used in crimes. Which makes the "bAn aLL eYy-ArR fIbTyEenZ" group a bunch of idiots. Besides. *Shall not be infringed.* Please. Gun owning Americans. The next time some idiot wants to take away your gun. Tell them "Go f*ck yourself."
Kanaan Cross Good luck trying to convince anyone of that. They have no God, no morals, no respect for the law, and no hope. When a drunk driver hurts or kills someone we don't blame the car. When a bomber kills we blame the bomber. When a criminal uses a gun to kill they blame the gun and call it gun violence instead of criminal violence where it belongs. You can just imagine the car violence and bomb violence we would have if the same logic was used.
As a LEO. I LOVE responsible, armed citizens. One example among many, I responded to an incident in which a local junkie, high on methamphetamines and armed with a knife went to and kicked in the door of an elderly couple, mid 80’s. After several attempts the male suspect made entry and was shot twice by the husband with a .357 revolver, stopping the threat in the doorway. I’ve seen the flip side of it having been shot at by an armed carjacker, confirmed gang member and convicted felon (an unlawful possessor of a firearm). I don’t relish ‘Story time’ when it comes to my profession but I have seen first hand the good that comes from responsible armed citizens. Gun control only restricts the lawful, the unlawful do. not. care. Fight for the 2A!
Totally agree. So called "gun control" can't be crime control when violent criminals and gang members ignore it and illegally carry illegally acquired firearms every day, including in extremely anti-gun states like California, New York, New Jersey, etc. Taking guns away from the law abiding, as most gun laws effectively do, and in violation of the Second Amendment, *increases crime* by forcing victims to be defenseless. It is therefore morally and ethically wrong. It's also impractical and counter-productive. It's also unconstitutional, and the Constitution is the supreme law of the land.
What about the story about a elder lady, I believe it was in Texas, she was at her ranch alone when a man was trying to get into her house? She was was actually on the phone with the police, she told the dispatcher, "I don't want to, but if he comes in my house, I'll shoot him graveyard dead"... The dispatcher said "do what you have to do"... Few minutes, you hear a noise, then her scream, then BANG! BANG!... Then she picked up the phone, saying, "I done it, I didn't want to, but he's dead... I shot him"... Cop's EVENTUALLY showed up, mind you, she was on a ranch in the country, so you do the math... No charges were filed... So... What would have happened if they made where she was a "gun free" state? Well, I'll tell what would have happened, it would have been HER that would have been "graveyard dead"..? By the way, if I may ask, what city, state, or county you serve for? We need more cop's like yourself sir, and thank you for serving and upholding the oath sir...
I hope you never quit or retire, we need more like you. After the attacks on LE, a lot of people were afraid the good ones would get pissed and quit just leaving the WOKE to fill the void. That would of been UGLY!!! Stay strong and God Bless.
I'm an old man and I need to come here to find out what's happening in the world. Thank you Colion. You're doing more for this country that any Politician or Fake News.
The "no gun control" bullshit you like so much created 288 school shootings in shitty crazy psychopath USA. But of course you will focus on a single cas where it actually saved people lives ... pro-NRA you act like leftists who focus on the ONE guy that did a crim and that wasn't an migrant.
We are ruled by "unAmericans", people who hate America, and can't stand our continued existence. You are a breath of fresh air, each and every day. You give me pride in having served, despite all the efforts of "mainstream media". These people hate, they have no use for the truth, and would destroy every worthy aspect of America. You literally make my day. I am armed, I carry every day, everywhere I go, and in fifty years of common carry, I've stopped a couple robberies, merely by being conspicuously armed, and the perps choosing not to engage. I am a two decade active duty, over two decades retired Marine. It is awesome to me, to see a young man of your age, actively defending the best of the US. I hope we convince enough of America to stay armed. Thank you for all you do. Semper Fidelis, John McClain, GySgt, USMC, ret.

As a woman who is about to conceal carry, this lady is a hero. We hope to never have to use our firearm, but this is what we train and carry for. She saved lives. Bless her - and thank you for sharing this story or we may not have ever heard about.
This is the problem in their simple little mind, it's not a mass shooting, until it became a mass shooting. Before it becomes a mass shooting, it's just an angry guy with a gun and lots of people around him. People always have to wait until something happens, then label it as what happened. But before it happens, it's all "you're assuming things" or "you're over thinking this".
Welcome to the human race? Lol And, tbh thats a product of how our brains work in the world. Lets say that most people think they have a 1/1000 chance of seeing a robbery today. So if you go to the bank, and see some people looking like they are about to rob it, you are already relying on your subconcious to recognize that this is indeed a 1/1000 chance. Sometimes your subconcious will make the wrong decision... And in that case, your brain has a 1 in 1000 chance of being right.
Kinda like how they are coming for all our guns... But with Biden saying he wants all handguns that aren't 22 banned and the whole Canada thing, that should obvious
I just heard about this. It's incredible that this citizen took down this bad guy. It didn't even make our local conservative talk station. Your videos are very informative and straight to the point. Please keep it up.
Yeah, IMO gun bans are unconstitutional. The 2nd Amendment was basically written to allow the populous to keep a rogue government in check. If we do stupid crap like banning civilian ownership of “assault weapons” or military grade hardware then we render the 2nd Amendment null and void, and since these laws contradict the 2nd Amendment, they are unconstitutional. Gun control is a bit in the grey area but if you ask me I’d say it’s also unconstitutional. Mostly cause the government decides wether you get guns or not, as they do background checks that prove wether or not you should be allowed to get one. In the case of a corrupt government, they won’t allow anyone to get guns, as they could incite an uprising. 2nd Amendment violation. Of course, if the President is like Biden, they might say, “The 2nd Amendment was never absolute.” Bullshit. Just an excuse so they can ban guns with the reasoning of “a 9mm bullet blows the lung out of the body,” which is also bullshit.
Maybe because in EVERY other first world nation, she wouldn't have needed a gun because that man wouldn't have had access to an AR-15, especially for cheap. BTW, when you own and operate half of the world's guns and gun manufacturers, YOU are responsible for who gets the guns. While EVERY OTHER COUNTRY has stats DIRECTLY blaming the US for at least half of their gun crime, the US has stats openly declaring that theft of legally registered firearms are the major cause of crime in THEIR country... even if 38 states refuse to investigate and declare how many guns are stolen. In case you're too stupid, I'll boil it down.... everyone else blames the US for gun crime... even the US that only reports 24% of its illegal gun stats... a country that has to hide information, are typically the corrupt ones.
But the same could be said for the NRA or even Ted Cruz, trying to blame video games and a “godless” nation. Just saying, don’t just choose to fit “your” agenda as well. Please talk from both sides.
but this shows the right side how the left feels. you don't need "big scary" guns to stop shootings. the left don't want assault rifles because a pistol is all you need. but I'm sure a majority of the left/center would be fine if some people were conceal carrying and not bragging about it. if police were the only ones who could every acquire guns, then we would only need to regulate the police and would be the states and presidents problem, which is what the right wants anyways (law and order, and state controlled everything). knifes are a big problem, but you cant kill as many people in a massive crowd as easily with a knife as a gun, even though the individual rates may be higher with a knife.
@@bill2953 Armed guards at grocery stores is like MARTIAL law. Armed guards at banks are like MARTIAL law. Armed guards around politicians is like MARTIAL law. You never bitch about the other places, but you sure don't want our children guarded. Why don't we compromise? We don't put armed guards in schools. We should make schools gun free zones.
I'm from the UK and find it very sad that just by watching this channel I'm more informed about gun violence incidents in The US than the people that actually live there.
America is weird, you have people talking about female empowerment who don't talk about this case. Then you have people talking about this case, but are usually shut down by mainstream media. It is sad that cases like this are somewhat common but everyone writes them off. And as you stated other countries know more of what's happening in the u.s.a then 80% of our population.
@Shy Brotha Speaks Yep. Because even though Colion has an obvious bias (which he doesn't hide or deny), he's not fear mongering citizens into giving up their freedoms.
But but she didn’t have “tactics” and a “precision rifleman” like the terrible police complained about. Supreme Court and other federal court ruled many many times police aren’t required to protect you. Most of a police’s job is paperwork and that’s how we have statistics about crime.
Far more violence is stopped by armed citizens than cops. On average quicker with less stray bullet damage. Generally because the average carrier practices more and is on scene when something happens.
Exactly, but don't tell that to the weirdos who worship cops. Let's also not forget that the same people who supported online censorship and mass surveillance in the 2000s and early 2010s started complaining about it in the late 2010s when it started effecting them. Let's also not forget that modern gun-control was a bipartisan effort by Republicans and Democrats alike to strip anti-establishment groups like the Black Panthers of their gun rights in the 60s and 70s; Chicago and California's gun-bans are a product of that, and Reagan signed that into law while CA governor. The same people who supported gun-control only because it effected black/brown people are now on the chopping block themselves. These people are a perpetual liability. They destroy those around them and then off themselves right after. A perfect metaphor. Speaking of Reagan, not only did he get the ball rolling on gun-control as governor, he's also the one who got the ball rolling when it comes to selling the country out to China while as president, and he shut down the mental hospitals and put them out on the streets, and he amplified the War on Drugs which directly contributed to armed gun violence, worsened mental problems instead of giving people health, and it destroyed the traditional family unit (when fathers and husbands get mass-imprisoned it creates generation of broken families, and sets off perpetually ongoing and expanding generations of dysfunctional families).
Police are MoneyThugs in 2022 and little else. Their top priority is profit, tickets, fines. Call cops for a home invasion in your own bad neighborhood, it'll take em 20-30 mins to arrive.. Walmart catches a shoplifter in the exact same neighborhood and the cops arrive in minutes or less. Who takes priority...? 🤔
@@John_Redcorn_ well they only have to qualify once a year! And it offends me that they act like we have to go through constant training just keep our weapons after we register them all! I try to practice with mine everyday since I lost them in a boating accident!
Does it matter if the firearm was "lawful" or the citizen "law abiding" if they STOPPED THE SHOOTING? That's all that matters. Imagine a scenario where someone carrying illegally and with a less-than-squeaky-clean record used their weapon to stop a mass shooter in a clearly designated gun free zone.
I'm sure there's exceptions, but I'd say most people carrying illegally aren't brimming with altruism for strangers. Probably some within what is labeled "gang shootings", but if it's say a wedding and someone drives by firing and someone in the wedding party returns fire and ends the threat, the gang connection gets the headlines and family protects family so the one illegally carrying is protected as much as possible. Something like this story, probably taking cover and hoping not to be noticed.
@@GryphonBrokewing And you'd say that based on absolutely nothing. There are a lot of states in the U.S. where getting a permit to carry legally is nearly impossible. It'd be perfectly reasonable for a person to still decide to carry for the same reasons they would if it were legal since the law(s) against it don't impact their reason for wanting/needing to carry to begin with. To assume that people that are breaking the law are less likely to be altruistic is to pretend that laws are thoughtful, just, well-defined, and rightly enforced. That is to say that non-compliance with a law is a sign of an unsavory individual. And most gun owners are aware that is not the case since there are lots of gun laws that are completely ridiculous.
My husband told me about this story when it happened and was infuriated that it wasn't publicized. I just forwarded this to him to let him know that it is being publicized just not how the left wants it to be. We're newbie fans to your channel. Keep it up, you're doing good work!:-)
This is very common. In the US armed citizens use firearms to defend themselves between 500,000 - 2,000,000 times per year. But you never hear about these stories from the mainstream media, you'll only hear about them from local news agencies or gun-friendly periodicals.

That's a fact -- any physical advantage men have over women instantly vanish the moment she picks up a gun. It blows my mind that so many women are anti-gun, it's insane behavior.
Thank you for reporting on this. It’s absolutely chilling how heroes like this woman are ignored by the mainstream because it doesn’t fit their agenda.
I’m grateful that the news media didn’t persecute her for using a gun to kill a black man. She did the right thing but the media doesn’t want to show anything about a justified shooting. 😢
I had a small discussion with some people about that incident in West Virginia and it's the proof that we need the 2nd Amendment in this country. Period.
I'm going to guess that west Virginia isnt a reporting state, which means we CANT find out if it was stolen from a legally registered owner... essentially it's about as ghost gun as ghost gun can get Edit: yes, I checked, and west virginia isn't a report state. In fact, they have NO obligations for private or federally licensed dealers from even holding records of sale.... this means that once it leaves the shop, you have NO idea who owns it besides the owner of the shop... that has no legal obligation to report or track that sale. This has led to west virginia being the 2nd most popular state for smuggling out illegal weapons, both domestically AND internationally. Beyond that, the law is specifically worded so that every private dealer can essentially sell all their guns to their local gang bangers as long as they don't do a background check... it essentially boils down to "its not illegal if I do it".... just creating laws to avoid being held responsible for OBVIOUS breaches in trust.
So a soccer mom stopped a mass shooting using her handgun and responding immediately. Maybe those 19 cops from the Texas shooting that stood outside for an hour while kids were killed, can take lessons from her as she responded correctly.
Keep up the work, man. You're the hero of people like us. Every time someone tries to say gun people don't have valuable sources, your name seems to shut them up.
Ironic that this happened in the worst state for gun laws, and ranked #2 domestically and internationally for the illegal smuggling of firearms.... but yes, west virginia is the beacon of hope for gun lovers. Just a heads up, what they don't tell you is that gun was most likely in the front seat of someone's unlocked car, fully loaded, and ready to go... because there are actually laws permitting drivers to do so, and a lack of laws requiring ANY proper storage of guns. On top of that, next week the West virginia state police will release a statement declaring it "impossible" to find out where that gun came from, even though THEY PURPOSELY made laws that DONT require record of sales, DONT require background checks, and DONT require reporting of stolen or lost guns... Basically they made it legal to feign ignorance, and created methods to more easily allow it... committing a crime under ignorance is STILL a crime, somehow west virginia just decided that gun owners CANT break the law. If asked, the state police couldn't even make up a number to as how many guns were stolen last year from legal west Virginian gun owners.... BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO TRACK THEM.
@@ryanthompson3737 Was it on someone's kitchen table, or on the front seat of a car? Maybe you can get a job with CNN! or CNN+...oh wait.... Can't get a gun illegally? Like drugs? Your mom is calling! She said clean your room! Dumbass!
Even if it was mandatory, the real tragedy is that many anti-gunners have been inoculated against facts. In one ear, out the other. But but...nobody needs a 30 round magazine cause emotions. *cries*
Each side only reports what they want you to hear... this guy left out the fact that no one was shot, he was shooting in the air... I listen to both sides and draw my own conclusions. I think she definitely had the right to engage the shooter (he was being a terrorist), but I wouldn't call her a hero that stopped a "mass shooting"...
@@burninintexas7597 you are drawing a conclusion with information after the fact. Put youself in her shoes in that moment. You see some beligerant start wildly shooting, in the air or at the ground, makes little difference. What possible conclusion can you make? Do you wait for them to actually shoot and kill/injure someone or turn their attention towards you before you act? I would think not. You can have no clue to what their intentions are in the moment so stop making these conclusions after all the fact. Also, she didnt "stop" a mass shooting. She "prevented" one. A much better outcome if you ask me.

I'm surprised that nobody ever references the Czech Republic as an example of how a country can have looser gun laws but lower crime rates. Even with licensing and registration laws, it is much easier to obtain a firearm there than in most first world countries (excluding the U.S.). They allow civilian ownership of AR-15s and other semi-auto rifles (VZ 58 is probably the most popular), and they allow everyday citizens to conceal carry firearms in similar fashion to many "shall issue" states in the United States, but on a nationwide basis rather than on a state to state basis. Recently, they even wrote an almost Second-like Amendment to their constitution.
After being invaded by Nazi Germany and then USSR, once they got their freedom they decided an armed population is how to keep their freedom in case they are next in Putin's War.
@@robertrobert7924 They implemented their nationwide shall-issue conceal carry law shortly after the USSR collapsed. Basically, they beat the United states to implementing a nationwide CCW reciprocity law by about three decades now.
I actually saw this after arguing with a dunce that the best method to stop or at the very least lower mass shootings is for every law abiding citizen to arm themselves and carry wherever they go, if everyone carried and had the proper means to defend themselves they’re would at the very least be less casualties in mass shooting scenarios.... thank you Miss for proving my point!
YOU ARE THE ABSOLUTE MAN MR NOIR! Total respect to you sir for standing up for us little guys that need a firearm for their careers to selflessly protect the innocent. God bless you a million times over my brother & keep up the great work you’re doing on behalf of a lot of us responsible law abiding gun owners to spread TRUTH instead of lies! Love you man.
People always say “why do I never hear about someone stopping a mass shooter” point 1 being this where it’s just not reported as much. Point 2 is related but it doesn’t get as much attention because if done right. They aren’t stopping a mass shooter they are stopping attempted murder. Attempted murder doesn’t make media money like a mass shooter does. So anti gun people won’t hear about a mass shooter stopped even if they looked because they never shot anyone or more than one person.
They will tell you this wasn't a mass shooting incident. You need four or more people to die before it is mass shooting. Stupid I know but that's the way they are.
Where did he get the rifle from? I know it's not answered and the laws in West Virginia are built to allow criminals access to guns without punishment, but you can give an opinion. Where on earth did this guy, with no license, get an AR-15....
@@ryanthompson3737 Asking me or anyone? I have no idea as I have not looked into this case much. Criminals get illegal guns in every state with varying degrees of laws. Never heard of laws that don’t punish criminals rather laws are ineffective against people who don’t follow them.
@@joew6277 Well. Laws that help criminals include no storage laws (they can walk into a house and find a loaded rifle laying on the couch), no background checks for private dealer (i can literally sell to osama bin laden, and its legal if i dont look his name up), no requirement to hold records of sales (as soon as it leaves the shop, we have NO idea who owns it or even if it resides in the same state or country), and actually a POSITIVE law allowing the storage of fully loaded firearms inside your car..... Even though IN THIS SAME STATE, they'll arrest car owners for leaving keys in the ignition, resulting in it being stolen and used in a car accident.... but leaving your gun in the car, open for the public to see ISNT the owners fault... right. The point I'm trying to make is that this guy can ONLY get guns from legally registered firearm owners. There is NO WAY to illegally obtain a weapon, other than stealing it from owners that DONT SECURE IT POPERLY. This is why cops are among the highest group of gun owners stolen from... they CONSTANTLY have guns in places that can easily be reached by criminals.
@@joew6277 Also, west virginia is ranked #2 INTERNATIONALLY for gun smuggling from the US. The majority of illegal guns that come from the US, usually come from west virginia.
*_”IF IT BLEEDS, IT LEADS”_* A righteous shoot and defensive gun use doesn’t provoke the same emotional response; A dead bad guy who had it coming just doesn’t get the same attention as a good tragedy. 🤷😩
I hadn’t realized that that phrase was so uncommon & unfamiliar nowadays. Basically it means that things that are spectacular and sensational get top billing. (And if anybody’s unfamiliar with *_that_* , it means it gets priority in appearance). IIRC it originated in the late 19th century, perhaps Hearst and the Spanish American war…?🤔 and for those unfamiliar with that history, William Randolph Hearst was a newspaper magnate, and was very goal oriented, success minded and the source of such gems as “You furnish the pictures and I’ll furnish the war“ in an 1898 Telegram to the artist Frederic Remington at the beginning of the Spanish - American War in Cuba, & “If you make a product good enough... the public will make a path to your door, says the philosopher. But if you want the public in sufficient numbers, you would better construct a highway. Advertising is that highway.” Tragedy grabs attention, and nowadays clicks and views provide that income, ergo whatever you do that draws the most interest and attracts the most revenue is what you make most prominent. Personally, my favorite quote of his is “My experience has proved that a man who is running for office, and is not willing to make his honest opinions known to the public, either has no honest opinions or is not honest about them.”

This is exactly why I’m now taking steps to purchase my first firearm and get my CCW. Theres far too much chaos in the world and I don’t want to be a victim.
So many of the greatest heroes among our citizenry go through life with their songs unsung. Blessings and peace to this woman, for she rescued many lives by her actions.
The majority of my time I spend talking to females about guns is why they need to be and should be carrying. And this story is a prime example of why. The gun is a tool that puts a 5' 1" 120lb woman on equal footing with a 6' 3" 250lb linebacker and could mean the difference between life and death. She's not going to win in a physical altercation so she needs to be a couple steps above. In this case, not only did an armed woman preserve her own life, she had the edge and saved lives that may have otherwise been lost.
This is why they need the leftist argument that there's no difference between men and women. So they can justify taking the right to self defense from everyone, like they are trying to do right now in Canada.
Thank you for covering this, I’d heard about the incident and wondered why no one was covering it. It got my wife back in to carrying. It’s really a shame that these stories go unnoticed.
As a lifelong WV resident living just outside of Charleston, thank you for covering this. This woman is a hero, but the lame stream media will never tell you that.
I pray for this woman for she will be facing the need for counseling, no less that the needs of any law enforcement who are engaged in similar shootings.... even a super hero like this requires a massive amount of support ! Blessings to her.
The "no gun control" bullshit you like so much created 288 school shootings in shitty crazy psychopath USA. But of course you will focus on a single cas where it actually saved people lives ... pro-NRA you act like leftists who focus on the ONE guy that did a crim and that wasn't an migrant.
You forgot to mention that the ar-15 was most likely stolen from a house that left it on the table fully loaded since there's no laws requiring proper storage of the gun. We can't even find this out because, unless federally required, the state DOESNT require private or federally licensed dealers to hold records of sales... this means that as soon as the gun leaves a store, you've got a ghost gun. You don't know who owns it, who owned it, and where it went... it can turn up in Mexico a week later in a mass shooting, and all Mexico could get from the government is "yeah, we made it, but we only know which state it was sold in....". You guys mention time and time again that we NEED to punish the criminals, and then make it SO easy for a criminal to get away with committing a crime. Hell, selling guns to gangs IS ILLEGAL. So why don't you advocate for records of sales and mandatory background checks to make sure you ARENT selling to gang members? Right... then you lose the benefit of being ignorant.
@@effu9375 Ah yes. The less than 54,000 FFL shops in the US account for EVERY sale in the US... the ACTUAL figures are that FFL sales only account for 60% of gun sales (probably MUCH lower since, again, there's no duty to record ANY details of ANY gun sales in many states leaving the government guessing how many private guns were sold that year... of course those states have a vested interest in manipulating you into believing that the majority of guns are still bought legally... this is also a stat from 1997, as thats the ONLY research article i could find saying as such.... almost like the state purposely supresses that info, or purposefuly dont publish it knowing it hurts their cause). Talking about suppression.... I can't even find out how many actually FFL holders or shops are in Virginia, and there's a scary lack of resources to find these kinda of shops, often literally relying on some random guy to post accurate information.... THIS pushes people to use EASY methods of getting guns instead of having to literally google for HOURS to find any information about FFL holders. You pretend like an FFL dealer existing means private sales can't be done, or that there can't POSSIBLY be shady shit going on when I can't even find the most BASIC of information for LEGAL GUN PURCHASING..... the Virginia government has literally pushed people to use PRIVATE gun sales, and they'll continue pushing the 60% narrative from 25 years ago BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO TRACK PRIVATE SALES.
Wdym by “REAL - STRAIGHT men?” Do you mean, like, with their heads set on straight, as in, mentally sane or straight in terms of sexuality? Just wondering.

I greatly enjoy your content. When I get out of the hospital I plan on being more supportive. I share videos greatly. I live in the San Antonio area. And, have been in a physical rehabilitation facility for awhile. I was less than 30 minutes from Uvalde the day of the massacre. We must remain Lone Star strong against the tide of anti-2A'ers trying to disarm us.
This is the first im hearing about it, so without people like you i would have never known. So don’t stop what your doing.

This right here. Troubled young people would rather get glory from the wrong things.
Derek There are already copy cats out there looking for their spot of fame thanks to the network propaganda.
The media wish to sell tears
I was in high school when Columbine happened. I had never heard of a shooting before that. Seeing the shooters' pictures plastered all over TV with endless fawning over them ("what could have made them do this!?" etc) Even as a kid I knew this was a bad reaction, and would cause lots of copycats
And the media is to blame for the copycats. By releasing names and faces, the perpetrators KNOW they will receive their fame.
This woman deserves a medal. It’s mind boggling how this story isn’t all over mainstream media. Salute to you ma’am! Thank you for taking action and saving lives.

It’s not mind boggling at all. The story simply did not fit the narrative of the lefty’s news outlet’s. CNN, MSNBC etc. you want true and accurate news reports then you have to watch FOX news only. The other 2 are paid by the left to tell lies.

@@rsbreeze yes
@@JohnWayne-ec1gi name one!
It makes a difference, because the shooter got his gun illegally. The gun laws (in this real life scenario) only affected the "good guy". Some (not all) gun laws take the guns out of the hands of good guys and they end up in the hands of bad guys. Yes, it matters a lot!!! An overzealous gun law could have prevented this woman from having a gun at the party.
“We are literally saying you will get more fame from mass killing innocent people then you will if you use a gun to save the lives of other people”
Wow…. That’s an incredibly eye opening statement man, keep up the great work 👏🏼
I’m glad that the media didn’t flip the story and make her look like a menace to society. She did the right thing and I’m glad that she’s not in jail or court.
So true
Of course more coverage with a mass killing of innocent people, that's the mission of the left. Let crime be legalized and let go to make abolishing the 2nd amendment make their case. All deliberate and not a care about who gets hurt while making their case. How stupid they think we are.
I’ve said it tons of times, we don’t have a gun crisis we have a mental illness problem, a sane person doesn’t do these types of things.
They still want us to try and take a mental health test in order to buy a gun. Not all of us feel or think the same not all of us live in the same living conditions just leave the gun rights alone. Need to work on mental health from the bottom up not from the gun down. You will still be making a certain percentage of the population open to their rights when it should be open to all and be left alone.
Exactly !
Colion The stats you’re quoting with hands fist and feet along with knives aren’t just A.R. 15s. The FBI Statistics you are quoting are referring to all rifles combined
@@longgone9869 so that means AR-15s are only a percentage of rifles used in crimes.

Kanaan Cross Good luck trying to convince anyone of that. They have no God, no morals, no respect for the law, and no hope. When a drunk driver hurts or kills someone we don't blame the car. When a bomber kills we blame the bomber. When a criminal uses a gun to kill they blame the gun and call it gun violence instead of criminal violence where it belongs. You can just imagine the car violence and bomb violence we would have if the same logic was used.
As a LEO. I LOVE responsible, armed citizens. One example among many, I responded to an incident in which a local junkie, high on methamphetamines and armed with a knife went to and kicked in the door of an elderly couple, mid 80’s. After several attempts the male suspect
made entry and was shot twice by the husband with a .357 revolver, stopping the threat in the doorway. I’ve seen the flip side of it having been shot at by an armed carjacker, confirmed gang member and convicted felon (an unlawful possessor of a firearm). I don’t relish ‘Story time’ when it comes to my profession but I have seen first hand the good that comes from responsible armed citizens. Gun control only restricts the lawful, the unlawful do. not. care. Fight for the 2A!
Thank you, sir. Or ma'am, as appropriate.
Totally agree. So called "gun control" can't be crime control when violent criminals and gang members ignore it and illegally carry illegally acquired firearms every day, including in extremely anti-gun states like California, New York, New Jersey, etc.
Taking guns away from the law abiding, as most gun laws effectively do, and in violation of the Second Amendment, *increases crime* by forcing victims to be defenseless. It is therefore morally and ethically wrong. It's also impractical and counter-productive.
It's also unconstitutional, and the Constitution is the supreme law of the land.
What about the story about a elder lady, I believe it was in Texas, she was at her ranch alone when a man was trying to get into her house? She was was actually on the phone with the police, she told the dispatcher, "I don't want to, but if he comes in my house, I'll shoot him graveyard dead"... The dispatcher said "do what you have to do"... Few minutes, you hear a noise, then her scream, then BANG! BANG!... Then she picked up the phone, saying, "I done it, I didn't want to, but he's dead... I shot him"... Cop's EVENTUALLY showed up, mind you, she was on a ranch in the country, so you do the math... No charges were filed... So... What would have happened if they made where she was a "gun free" state? Well, I'll tell what would have happened, it would have been HER that would have been "graveyard dead"..?
By the way, if I may ask, what city, state, or county you serve for? We need more cop's like yourself sir, and thank you for serving and upholding the oath sir...
I hope you never quit or retire, we need more like you. After the attacks on LE, a lot of people were afraid the good ones would get pissed and quit just leaving the WOKE to fill the void. That would of been UGLY!!! Stay strong and God Bless.

You give me pride in having served, despite all the efforts of "mainstream media". These people hate, they have no use for the truth, and would destroy every worthy aspect of America. You literally make my day. I am armed, I carry every day, everywhere I go, and in fifty years of common carry, I've stopped a couple robberies, merely by being conspicuously armed, and the perps choosing not to engage. I am a two decade active duty, over two decades retired Marine. It is awesome to me, to see a young man of your age, actively defending the best of the US. I hope we convince enough of America to stay armed. Thank you for all you do. Semper Fidelis, John McClain, GySgt, USMC, ret.
I'm a female from WV that carries, when I heard this I was saddened, but so proud of her. Thank you so much for covering this. It's an outrage this isn't getting national attention, but I'm not surprised.
Why so sad?
...upon hearing a story with a good ending instead of a bad one?
@@presidenttnediserp428 probably sad because someone had to die, and someone else has to live with ending their life..
Granted it was a bad dude and she saved God knows how many lives. It's still not something most people want to do or really understand what it takes to deal with it in the long run
@@jasonsimons3071 I agree with you. If you are a good person taking a life is going to effect you. It don't matter if that person is good or bad, you are going to live with yourself for a long time knowing what you did. It is better that she did what she did, but she now has to live with herself. Hopefully she will forgiver herself. Myself I see nothing she needs to be forgiven for. Like someone said, she should get a medal.
@Paul Martin unless you've killed someone, you have no idea how it feels.. I'm not saying for a second she didn't do the right thing, and I don't feel sorry for the person who died.. taking a life isn't easy unless you're a complete psychopath...

Gun rights are women's rights!!
If Im.at work- I'm carrying! I drove taxi at night- I'm 5"2 130 lbs- I drive drunks and asshole and I refuse to be anyone's victim!!!!!!
Don’t shoot every black man that’s angry. Just those making threats. Or you will go to jail.
By all means carry!
She deserves a medal. She did more to prevent mass shootings in this act than any politician.
True
This is the problem in their simple little mind, it's not a mass shooting, until it became a mass shooting. Before it becomes a mass shooting, it's just an angry guy with a gun and lots of people around him. People always have to wait until something happens, then label it as what happened. But before it happens, it's all "you're assuming things" or "you're over thinking this".
Welcome to the human race? Lol
And, tbh thats a product of how our brains work in the world.
Lets say that most people think they have a 1/1000 chance of seeing a robbery today. So if you go to the bank, and see some people looking like they are about to rob it, you are already relying on your subconcious to recognize that this is indeed a 1/1000 chance. Sometimes your subconcious will make the wrong decision... And in that case, your brain has a 1 in 1000 chance of being right.
Because its obvious it doesnt fit their agenda. They think less guns =less problems in a country where everyone is armed
@@magnetacyan5032 wait till they see mass stabbing or poisoning like that didn't happen before.

You have my thanks as part of the 2A community. Appreciate it, your neighbor in Kentucky 👍🏼
Thank you. You are an embodiment of the concept "citizen journalist".
I just heard about this. It's incredible that this citizen took down this bad guy. It didn't even make our local conservative talk station. Your videos are very informative and straight to the point. Please keep it up.
"Lawful gun owner" only means to me that they had to request permission to own something they already have a right to own.
Yeah, IMO gun bans are unconstitutional. The 2nd Amendment was basically written to allow the populous to keep a rogue government in check. If we do stupid crap like banning civilian ownership of “assault weapons” or military grade hardware then we render the 2nd Amendment null and void, and since these laws contradict the 2nd Amendment, they are unconstitutional. Gun control is a bit in the grey area but if you ask me I’d say it’s also unconstitutional. Mostly cause the government decides wether you get guns or not, as they do background checks that prove wether or not you should be allowed to get one. In the case of a corrupt government, they won’t allow anyone to get guns, as they could incite an uprising. 2nd Amendment violation. Of course, if the President is like Biden, they might say, “The 2nd Amendment was never absolute.” Bullshit. Just an excuse so they can ban guns with the reasoning of “a 9mm bullet blows the lung out of the body,” which is also bullshit.
NO permission required in West Virginia……
What did that Floridian sheriff say??? "If the offender is dead there's no chance to reoffend.
Yup. He got got.

Glad you're around to bring this kind of story to our attention. MSM won't report on it because it doesn't fit their politics.
*it doesn't fit their political agenda
Maybe because in EVERY other first world nation, she wouldn't have needed a gun because that man wouldn't have had access to an AR-15, especially for cheap.
BTW, when you own and operate half of the world's guns and gun manufacturers, YOU are responsible for who gets the guns. While EVERY OTHER COUNTRY has stats DIRECTLY blaming the US for at least half of their gun crime, the US has stats openly declaring that theft of legally registered firearms are the major cause of crime in THEIR country... even if 38 states refuse to investigate and declare how many guns are stolen.
In case you're too stupid, I'll boil it down.... everyone else blames the US for gun crime... even the US that only reports 24% of its illegal gun stats... a country that has to hide information, are typically the corrupt ones.
But the same could be said for the NRA or even Ted Cruz, trying to blame video games and a “godless” nation.
Just saying, don’t just choose to fit “your” agenda as well. Please talk from both sides.
@@TheLazyGuyWay No it’s cause kids literally died.No shit that’s more important this channel is stupid and corny
but this shows the right side how the left feels. you don't need "big scary" guns to stop shootings. the left don't want assault rifles because a pistol is all you need. but I'm sure a majority of the left/center would be fine if some people were conceal carrying and not bragging about it. if police were the only ones who could every acquire guns, then we would only need to regulate the police and would be the states and presidents problem, which is what the right wants anyways (law and order, and state controlled everything). knifes are a big problem, but you cant kill as many people in a massive crowd as easily with a knife as a gun, even though the individual rates may be higher with a knife.

@Shy Brotha Speaks Yep. Because even though Colion has an obvious bias (which he doesn't hide or deny), he's not fear mongering citizens into giving up their freedoms.
But but she didn’t have “tactics” and a “precision rifleman” like the terrible police complained about. Supreme Court and other federal court ruled many many times police aren’t required to protect you. Most of a police’s job is paperwork and that’s how we have statistics about crime.
Far more violence is stopped by armed citizens than cops. On average quicker with less stray bullet damage. Generally because the average carrier practices more and is on scene when something happens.
Exactly, but don't tell that to the weirdos who worship cops.
Let's also not forget that the same people who supported online censorship and mass surveillance in the 2000s and early 2010s started complaining about it in the late 2010s when it started effecting them. Let's also not forget that modern gun-control was a bipartisan effort by Republicans and Democrats alike to strip anti-establishment groups like the Black Panthers of their gun rights in the 60s and 70s; Chicago and California's gun-bans are a product of that, and Reagan signed that into law while CA governor. The same people who supported gun-control only because it effected black/brown people are now on the chopping block themselves.
These people are a perpetual liability. They destroy those around them and then off themselves right after. A perfect metaphor.
Speaking of Reagan, not only did he get the ball rolling on gun-control as governor, he's also the one who got the ball rolling when it comes to selling the country out to China while as president, and he shut down the mental hospitals and put them out on the streets, and he amplified the War on Drugs which directly contributed to armed gun violence, worsened mental problems instead of giving people health, and it destroyed the traditional family unit (when fathers and husbands get mass-imprisoned it creates generation of broken families, and sets off perpetually ongoing and expanding generations of dysfunctional families).
@@Sheridantank yep. Ppl would be surprised to know how little the average LEO actually trains with their firearm
Police are MoneyThugs in 2022 and little else. Their top priority is profit, tickets, fines. Call cops for a home invasion in your own bad neighborhood, it'll take em 20-30 mins to arrive.. Walmart catches a shoplifter in the exact same neighborhood and the cops arrive in minutes or less. Who takes priority...? 🤔
@@John_Redcorn_ well they only have to qualify once a year!
And it offends me that they act like we have to go through constant training just keep our weapons after we register them all!
I try to practice with mine everyday since I lost them in a boating accident!
Does it matter if the firearm was "lawful" or the citizen "law abiding" if they STOPPED THE SHOOTING? That's all that matters.
Imagine a scenario where someone carrying illegally and with a less-than-squeaky-clean record used their weapon to stop a mass shooter in a clearly designated gun free zone.
I'm sure there's exceptions, but I'd say most people carrying illegally aren't brimming with altruism for strangers. Probably some within what is labeled "gang shootings", but if it's say a wedding and someone drives by firing and someone in the wedding party returns fire and ends the threat, the gang connection gets the headlines and family protects family so the one illegally carrying is protected as much as possible. Something like this story, probably taking cover and hoping not to be noticed.
Federal officials don’t have to obey laws, why should anyone else!
@@GryphonBrokewing And you'd say that based on absolutely nothing. There are a lot of states in the U.S. where getting a permit to carry legally is nearly impossible. It'd be perfectly reasonable for a person to still decide to carry for the same reasons they would if it were legal since the law(s) against it don't impact their reason for wanting/needing to carry to begin with. To assume that people that are breaking the law are less likely to be altruistic is to pretend that laws are thoughtful, just, well-defined, and rightly enforced. That is to say that non-compliance with a law is a sign of an unsavory individual. And most gun owners are aware that is not the case since there are lots of gun laws that are completely ridiculous.
A wise man once said: "When they outlaw freedom, only the outlaws will be free".
@@Beatyofeet32 you’re exactly right! My permit expired, the communists took over, I didn’t want a permit on file so I carry without and I’m an ex-cop

I’m grateful that the news media didn’t persecute her for using a gun to kill a black man. She did the right thing but the media doesn’t want to show anything about a justified shooting. 😢
Oh hell yeah I'm sharing it! Excellent video brother! Thank you for being a light in a very dark place.
I had a small discussion with some people about that incident in West Virginia and it's the proof that we need the 2nd Amendment in this country. Period.
We don't need it, we already have it. We need to prevent morons from trying to get rid of it.
I'm going to guess that west Virginia isnt a reporting state, which means we CANT find out if it was stolen from a legally registered owner... essentially it's about as ghost gun as ghost gun can get
Edit: yes, I checked, and west virginia isn't a report state. In fact, they have NO obligations for private or federally licensed dealers from even holding records of sale.... this means that once it leaves the shop, you have NO idea who owns it besides the owner of the shop... that has no legal obligation to report or track that sale. This has led to west virginia being the 2nd most popular state for smuggling out illegal weapons, both domestically AND internationally. Beyond that, the law is specifically worded so that every private dealer can essentially sell all their guns to their local gang bangers as long as they don't do a background check... it essentially boils down to "its not illegal if I do it".... just creating laws to avoid being held responsible for OBVIOUS breaches in trust.
So a soccer mom stopped a mass shooting using her handgun and responding immediately. Maybe those 19 cops from the Texas shooting that stood outside for an hour while kids were killed, can take lessons from her as she responded correctly.
Thats because the local cops and the Biden Nazi party worked together for that to happen so they can push the gun ban
Argree
Also agreed 👍🏻
Maybe Braden Tatum should learn about her action and champion it versus defending the Uvalde police as having done no wrong through their inaction.
Right on, Colion! Keep speaking truth!
Thank you for letting the general public know these things, keep up the good work...
Keep up the work, man. You're the hero of people like us. Every time someone tries to say gun people don't have valuable sources, your name seems to shut them up.
Ironic that this happened in the worst state for gun laws, and ranked #2 domestically and internationally for the illegal smuggling of firearms.... but yes, west virginia is the beacon of hope for gun lovers.
Just a heads up, what they don't tell you is that gun was most likely in the front seat of someone's unlocked car, fully loaded, and ready to go... because there are actually laws permitting drivers to do so, and a lack of laws requiring ANY proper storage of guns. On top of that, next week the West virginia state police will release a statement declaring it "impossible" to find out where that gun came from, even though THEY PURPOSELY made laws that DONT require record of sales, DONT require background checks, and DONT require reporting of stolen or lost guns... Basically they made it legal to feign ignorance, and created methods to more easily allow it... committing a crime under ignorance is STILL a crime, somehow west virginia just decided that gun owners CANT break the law.
If asked, the state police couldn't even make up a number to as how many guns were stolen last year from legal west Virginian gun owners.... BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO TRACK THEM.
@@ryanthompson3737 Was it on someone's kitchen table, or on the front seat of a car? Maybe you can get a job with CNN! or CNN+...oh wait.... Can't get a gun illegally? Like drugs? Your mom is calling! She said clean your room! Dumbass!
Watching your videos should be mandatory for all anti-gunners. There's nothing like the truth to disinfect a situation.
Even if it was mandatory, the real tragedy is that many anti-gunners have been inoculated against facts. In one ear, out the other. But but...nobody needs a 30 round magazine cause emotions. *cries*
I’d say they should watch this channel as well as Active self Protection with John
Each side only reports what they want you to hear... this guy left out the fact that no one was shot, he was shooting in the air...
I listen to both sides and draw my own conclusions. I think she definitely had the right to engage the shooter (he was being a terrorist), but I wouldn't call her a hero that stopped a "mass shooting"...
@@burninintexas7597 you are drawing a conclusion with information after the fact. Put youself in her shoes in that moment. You see some beligerant start wildly shooting, in the air or at the ground, makes little difference. What possible conclusion can you make? Do you wait for them to actually shoot and kill/injure someone or turn their attention towards you before you act? I would think not. You can have no clue to what their intentions are in the moment so stop making these conclusions after all the fact.
Also, she didnt "stop" a mass shooting. She "prevented" one. A much better outcome if you ask me.
@@jujupants2486 pretty weak comrade. Reaching for sure....
"The possibility that one's intended victim is armed was evidently a concern to most of these men- the strong majority(81%)agreed that it was wise to find out in advance if one's potential victims are armed, and to avoid them if they are."

@@yvonnebaur4485 you know they all have private security
Yup. Criminals love gun laws. Makes their job easier
Colion, you are THE man. You call bullshit on bullshit quickly, loudly, and effectively. In my honest opinion and using my guage that makes you an honest and truthful man! God bless and keep fighting the fight!
SELF DEFENCE IS A HUMAN RIGHT 💯
This story deserves so much more coverage, thanks for sharing.✊🏾
This should be on more news outlets
Bravo. Happens all the time, and seldom hits the Press.
i read about this. this is the kind of reaction needed in a crisis.
I'm surprised that nobody ever references the Czech Republic as an example of how a country can have looser gun laws but lower crime rates. Even with licensing and registration laws, it is much easier to obtain a firearm there than in most first world countries (excluding the U.S.). They allow civilian ownership of AR-15s and other semi-auto rifles (VZ 58 is probably the most popular), and they allow everyday citizens to conceal carry firearms in similar fashion to many "shall issue" states in the United States, but on a nationwide basis rather than on a state to state basis. Recently, they even wrote an almost Second-like Amendment to their constitution.
After being invaded by Nazi Germany and then USSR, once they got their freedom they decided an armed population is how to keep their freedom in case they are next in Putin's War.
@@robertrobert7924 They implemented their nationwide shall-issue conceal carry law shortly after the USSR collapsed. Basically, they beat the United states to implementing a nationwide CCW reciprocity law by about three decades now.
@@trapperscout2046 They acted swiftly so history would not repeat itself or some KGB thugs would not highjack the government.
They remember the horrors of WW2. That's why.
@@tacticalmattfoley and 1968. 200,000 Soviet troops invaded because Czechoslovakia people were not being good Warsaw Pact subjects.
I actually saw this after arguing with a dunce that the best method to stop or at the very least lower mass shootings is for every law abiding citizen to arm themselves and carry wherever they go, if everyone carried and had the proper means to defend themselves they’re would at the very least be less casualties in mass shooting scenarios.... thank you Miss for proving my point!
I live just a couple minutes from Charleston and I didn't even hear about this until a few days later.
Thanks for PASSIONATELY stating the of MSM on this subject!
She is an absolute HERO! Thank God she was there and armed and competent. She saved lives.
Thank you for bringing this to peoples attention, the media doesnt want people to know guns also save hundreds if not thousands of lives a year
Millions
I did not hear this story.
I shared it with my husband... it's going to make him happy. 💯👏
YOU ARE THE ABSOLUTE MAN MR NOIR! Total respect to you sir for standing up for us little guys that need a firearm for their careers to selflessly protect the innocent. God bless you a million times over my brother & keep up the great work you’re doing on behalf of a lot of us responsible law abiding gun owners to spread TRUTH instead of lies! Love you man.
First time I'm hearing about this and WOW. Please keep spreading the truth, more people need to be aware!
I heard about this from ABL just a few hours after it happened. We need to keep getting the word out there.
Man thank you for keeping me and my family safe we need more Afrikan American to speak up I'm a 2A 100 percent keep up the good work
Heard about this a couple day's ago glad you put this on your channel to help educate the people. People stop acting like sheep!
This stuff that happens way more often than people think needs to get out.
She’s a hero and MSM will never report the whole truth.
6 corporations owns the whole MSM? What do you expected?
Can’t agreed more.pitiful
This stuff needs to be in the mass media. We need to protect ourselves and others.
People always say “why do I never hear about someone stopping a mass shooter” point 1 being this where it’s just not reported as much. Point 2 is related but it doesn’t get as much attention because if done right. They aren’t stopping a mass shooter they are stopping attempted murder. Attempted murder doesn’t make media money like a mass shooter does. So anti gun people won’t hear about a mass shooter stopped even if they looked because they never shot anyone or more than one person.
They will tell you this wasn't a mass shooting incident. You need four or more people to die before it is mass shooting. Stupid I know but that's the way they are.
Where did he get the rifle from? I know it's not answered and the laws in West Virginia are built to allow criminals access to guns without punishment, but you can give an opinion. Where on earth did this guy, with no license, get an AR-15....
@@ryanthompson3737 Asking me or anyone? I have no idea as I have not looked into this case much. Criminals get illegal guns in every state with varying degrees of laws. Never heard of laws that don’t punish criminals rather laws are ineffective against people who don’t follow them.
@@joew6277 Well. Laws that help criminals include no storage laws (they can walk into a house and find a loaded rifle laying on the couch), no background checks for private dealer (i can literally sell to osama bin laden, and its legal if i dont look his name up), no requirement to hold records of sales (as soon as it leaves the shop, we have NO idea who owns it or even if it resides in the same state or country), and actually a POSITIVE law allowing the storage of fully loaded firearms inside your car.....
Even though IN THIS SAME STATE, they'll arrest car owners for leaving keys in the ignition, resulting in it being stolen and used in a car accident.... but leaving your gun in the car, open for the public to see ISNT the owners fault... right.
The point I'm trying to make is that this guy can ONLY get guns from legally registered firearm owners. There is NO WAY to illegally obtain a weapon, other than stealing it from owners that DONT SECURE IT POPERLY. This is why cops are among the highest group of gun owners stolen from... they CONSTANTLY have guns in places that can easily be reached by criminals.
@@joew6277 Also, west virginia is ranked #2 INTERNATIONALLY for gun smuggling from the US. The majority of illegal guns that come from the US, usually come from west virginia.
*_”IF IT BLEEDS, IT LEADS”_* A righteous shoot and defensive gun use doesn’t provoke the same emotional response; A dead bad guy who had it coming just doesn’t get the same attention as a good tragedy. 🤷😩
"If it bleeds, it leads" what does that even mean lol?
"I don't trust anything that bleeds for a week and doesn't die." Now that makes sense.
*_but i'm sure the guy bled out after she shot him_* 🤷♂️
I hadn’t realized that that phrase was so uncommon & unfamiliar nowadays. Basically it means that things that are spectacular and sensational get top billing. (And if anybody’s unfamiliar with *_that_* , it means it gets priority in appearance). IIRC it originated in the late 19th century, perhaps Hearst and the Spanish American war…?🤔 and for those unfamiliar with that history, William Randolph Hearst was a newspaper magnate, and was very goal oriented, success minded and the source of such gems as “You furnish the pictures and I’ll furnish the war“ in an 1898 Telegram to the artist Frederic Remington at the beginning of the Spanish - American War in Cuba, & “If you make a product good enough... the public will make a path to your door, says the philosopher. But if you want the public in sufficient numbers, you would better construct a highway. Advertising is that highway.” Tragedy grabs attention, and nowadays clicks and views provide that income, ergo whatever you do that draws the most interest and attracts the most revenue is what you make most prominent.
Personally, my favorite quote of his is “My experience has proved that a man who is running for office, and is not willing to make his honest opinions known to the public, either has no honest opinions or is not honest about them.”
Lady you are my hero God bless your soul. That's what I'm talking. And did not here about it shameful.
At first I didn't like this channel, but you always turn out to be a reliable person on firearm reviews. So as you could imagine you always pop up whenever I'm looking at guns. I hadn't always liked what you say, but the more I actually come to your channel I start seeing things a little different and I appreciate you.
I’m proud of her. She performed under pressure. God bless her 🇺🇸🗽
Amen!
Remember those old western movies where the villain comes into town acting bad and the whole town pulls out a rifle and humbles that azz? That’s what this is.
This is exactly why I’m now taking steps to purchase my first firearm and get my CCW. Theres far too much chaos in the world and I don’t want to be a victim.
Thanks for the content keep the message coming!
So many of the greatest heroes among our citizenry go through life with their songs unsung. Blessings and peace to this woman, for she rescued many lives by her actions.
Thank you Colion for keeping it real. Please, please keep doing what you do. We need more "real news" reports like this and your one of the best!
Ty Sir, you're absolutely right about mainstream media!
Now that's how it's supposed to be a good woman with a gun stopping a bad guy with a gun, well done young lady, well done!
The majority of my time I spend talking to females about guns is why they need to be and should be carrying. And this story is a prime example of why. The gun is a tool that puts a 5' 1" 120lb woman on equal footing with a 6' 3" 250lb linebacker and could mean the difference between life and death. She's not going to win in a physical altercation so she needs to be a couple steps above. In this case, not only did an armed woman preserve her own life, she had the edge and saved lives that may have otherwise been lost.
This is why they need the leftist argument that there's no difference between men and women. So they can justify taking the right to self defense from everyone, like they are trying to do right now in Canada.
Thank you for covering this, I’d heard about the incident and wondered why no one was covering it. It got my wife back in to carrying. It’s really a shame that these stories go unnoticed.
Thanks, I didn't hear about this. God Bless this individual.
How come the media doesn't cover this?
As a lifelong WV resident living just outside of Charleston, thank you for covering this. This woman is a hero, but the lame stream media will never tell you that.
Did they cover it locally?
Didn’t hear about it on MSM here in northern Virginia
Thanks for always keeping up with this stuff!! Keep America Tactical!!!!
I pray for this woman for she will be facing the need for counseling, no less that the needs of any law enforcement who are engaged in similar shootings.... even a super hero like this requires a massive amount of support ! Blessings to her.
Listen, it doesn’t fit the narrative so, you’ll NEVER hear about it on mainstream media. I agree with EVERYTHING you say , as always. Keep it up sir.
The "no gun control" bullshit you like so much created 288 school shootings in shitty crazy psychopath USA. But of course you will focus on a single cas where it actually saved people lives ... pro-NRA you act like leftists who focus on the ONE guy that did a crim and that wasn't an migrant.
You forgot to mention that the ar-15 was most likely stolen from a house that left it on the table fully loaded since there's no laws requiring proper storage of the gun. We can't even find this out because, unless federally required, the state DOESNT require private or federally licensed dealers to hold records of sales... this means that as soon as the gun leaves a store, you've got a ghost gun. You don't know who owns it, who owned it, and where it went... it can turn up in Mexico a week later in a mass shooting, and all Mexico could get from the government is "yeah, we made it, but we only know which state it was sold in....".
You guys mention time and time again that we NEED to punish the criminals, and then make it SO easy for a criminal to get away with committing a crime. Hell, selling guns to gangs IS ILLEGAL. So why don't you advocate for records of sales and mandatory background checks to make sure you ARENT selling to gang members? Right... then you lose the benefit of being ignorant.
That's why I follow my local news on FB and then post these videos to counter their narrative on their FB page.
@@ryanthompson3737 mandatory background checks and bill of sale is done at all FFL locations in Virginia.
@@effu9375 Ah yes. The less than 54,000 FFL shops in the US account for EVERY sale in the US... the ACTUAL figures are that FFL sales only account for 60% of gun sales (probably MUCH lower since, again, there's no duty to record ANY details of ANY gun sales in many states leaving the government guessing how many private guns were sold that year... of course those states have a vested interest in manipulating you into believing that the majority of guns are still bought legally... this is also a stat from 1997, as thats the ONLY research article i could find saying as such.... almost like the state purposely supresses that info, or purposefuly dont publish it knowing it hurts their cause).
Talking about suppression.... I can't even find out how many actually FFL holders or shops are in Virginia, and there's a scary lack of resources to find these kinda of shops, often literally relying on some random guy to post accurate information.... THIS pushes people to use EASY methods of getting guns instead of having to literally google for HOURS to find any information about FFL holders.
You pretend like an FFL dealer existing means private sales can't be done, or that there can't POSSIBLY be shady shit going on when I can't even find the most BASIC of information for LEGAL GUN PURCHASING..... the Virginia government has literally pushed people to use PRIVATE gun sales, and they'll continue pushing the 60% narrative from 25 years ago BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO TRACK PRIVATE SALES.
We need more of this 🙏🏾
Colion, first of all I thank God for REAL - STRAIGHT men. 2nd thank you for all your doing to bringing the truth to light.
Wdym by “REAL - STRAIGHT men?” Do you mean, like, with their heads set on straight, as in, mentally sane or straight in terms of sexuality? Just wondering.
@@chasetoyama8184 so as I too was wondering what Lorraine meant I am about 99% certain that because she hyphenated those two particular words together I think she is implying that straight hetero men are the only “real” men so probably it was a homophobic based comment.
