Subdeacon Joe Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Cross posted from TEAM SASS http://sassnet.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=201526 But somehow didn't ask for stories about successful defensive gun uses. Guess it slipped their minds.

Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 "Our results ended up indicating, depending on which figures you prefer to use,anywhere from 800,000 on up to 2.4, 2.5 million defensive uses of guns againsthuman beings -- not against animals -- by civilians each year." http://rense.com/general76/univ.htm Granted this interview was back in 1993, but it was also before CCW became mainstream. It's possible that these days a firearm is used defensively more than ever to deter violence. GG ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I do, but I won't. Not there. I doubt it would be displayed, and might... just might result in some sort of "governmentattention" that would be less than welcomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickB Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The only gun stories I could share with them are the ones where I used a gun to defend myself from being a victim. I've had a total of 6 times where a gun kept me or someone I know from being a vicitm of criminals. Just shows how corrupt these guys in governemnt are that they only want to hear one side of the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 That is what I'm suggesting - flood that page with DGUs. I posted mine. No shots fired. And expressed my doubt that it would stay up long because it didn't fit the agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Listening to the radio this morning while I worked on some .30-06 brass, and the guy said that the radical left owned the press. I believe that he is correct. They control education, media and government. No wonder the country is going down hill so fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T. H. O' Sullivan Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I was thinking of linking to an online video I saw of some guy taking a sledge hammer to his AR rifle. That's about the worst kind of "Gun Violence" I have seen in recent years and I was traumatized by it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cypress Sun Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I dropped a fully loaded AK 30 round mag on my bare foot once, is that what they are looking for? I guess the heading would be "Dumbass breaks foot with magazine". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. James H. Callahan Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I was thinking of linking to an online video I saw of some guy taking a sledge hammer to his AR rifle. That's about the worst kind of "Gun Violence" I have seen in recent years and I was traumatized by it.... Hmmmm. Mebbe I should make one of taking Mr. Shorty's (my dog's) AR to a sledgehammer! ..........Nah. No point in ruining a perfectly good sledge.

Blackwater 53393 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Yep!! Near as I can tell they are filtering out the DGUs as fast as they can catch them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Yep!! Near as I can tell they are filtering out the DGUs as fast as they can catch them. I tried mine twice. Seems that they only want one side presented. Was worth a try. I did send an email asking when they were going to have a similar page for DGUs. So far no response. Not that i actually expect one.

Uno Mas SASS #80082 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Well.... Okay. One New Years Eve during college I was working a self serve gas station. Two "Victims of Society" stuck a handgun in my spine -- by way of my belly button. Once they searched me and found I did not have my own handgun, they proceeded to professionally rough me up. A customer appeared to interrupt their fun. Cops came in about 3 - 5 minutes, but were mainly interested in completing paperwork. The pair went on to bigger and better things, finally killing a female clerk before dropping from sight. They were never caught. If those two bastards were only afraid of a gun I might have had... well damnit, I needed to HAVE THAT GUN! That's why I'm a gun owner and a 2nd Amendment absolutist. How's that, Barry?
