Hooray! Something decent actually made the news. I did a quick search but didn't see this posted, so sorry if its a dupe!

Great story...would love to see this on the big MSM's but know it won't even make the regional news on their sites.

Happened a year ago, but still a good story for sure.

Awesome story but its from a year ago.

One for good guys. Who'd thought that the news would even report the story.

For some reason it bothered me that they kept calling him the "Gun Carrying Man", I like the sound of "Armed Citizen" a little better.

I wish there were a lot more of these that made the news. You know this stuff happens every day.

The man stream media didn't pick this up? Let me show you my shocked face.

OOOOOOO, lots of people hurt, gunman involved!!! We'll send over The Team immediately!!! Must get national coverage on this, show how the dirty right wing extrememist gun nut psychos intent on destroying The New America is the abomination of gun ownership!!!!! We will show how dangerous and BAD gun ownership is, remember to call everything an assault weapon!! Yes, we ARE GETTING RIGHT ON IT!!!!

Uhmmm, reports from the field show it was a legal gun owner protecting civilians from further harm from someone with a bladed weapon. Nothing to see here, nothing news worthy, must move on. Sorry to waste your time...


(Wondering if that should be in purple or green? Naaaahhh, it would NEVER go down like that.)

Whether it was last week or last year, I bet the other shoppers had a new found appreciation for the protection they received.

Funny thing is that Smiths has had this happen before.

Almost the exact same thing.

Still a good story, but Wtf? I've seen this story pop up literally 6 times in the past 24hrs as 'news' even though it's a year old.

Must be some kind of a national-scale necropost.

Year old, but still a nice change of pace from typical "man carrying a gun" stories that the media chooses to publish.

Just curious if the percentage of men carrying guns in Utah, who also just happen to be good guys, is higher than in most other states.

Thanks for posting that!

That's because it is the same thing.
