    Also, when has a so called Gun owning Liberal Democrat ever admitted to using a Gun for personal Defense ?

    I don't remember hearing of any, a Liberal Democrat is someone that has never been Robbed,
    A conservative Republican is a Liberal Democrat that was Robbed and came to his senses...

    Lol, small joke

    You're the one with the claim. It's up to you to provide the evidence.

    He was let in by your "NO" party and they only managed to get rid of one of President Trump's appointees.

    I recall a couple years ago a story that pointed out the media bias. There was an active shooter on a college campus. A student ran out to their car, got their gun and stopped the shooter. I remember something like 90% of the MSM printed an article that did not mention that a gun was used to stop the shooter.

    While acknowledging many here believe Lott's gun studies were flawed(mostly because they parrot biased publications) on thing Lott attempted to do was to measure not only when guns were used (discharged) in successful self defense, but also when a gun was used to thwart an attack and not discharged and thus not likely to appear in the records traditionally used for amassing gun use data such as FBI crime statistics. I have stopped potential attacks and one near home invasion by just showing a gun and never reported the incident myself. The only time we know for sure a 'good guy with a gun' stopped an active shooter or mass shooting is when one was interrupted after several victims were already shot. What we don't know is how many were prevented by the presence of a gun or were interrupted in one of the cases of successful defenses where the bad guy was taken down before shooting enough victims to register by one of the many definitions of a mass shooting or where the duration of shooting registered as an active shooter. Some shootings classified as a mass shooting were elimination of witnesses...one coming to mind for me was when the restruant my first wife worked at was held up in Indianapolis and all the employees working at the time, 6, were herded into a walk-in freezer and then executed. If one of the employees had shot the two robbers at the outset, it would have prevented a mass shooting, but we'd never have know that would have been the ultimate result. One of the reasons for taking action in my mind is not only preventing my death, but any subsequent acts of violence by a criminal that has shown intent.
