We’ve got several powerful stories in today’s newsletter—real-world examples of defensive gun use, including a liquor store clash in Kansas City where a teen’s final words were “hurry up and shoot him,” and a home invasion where a father protected his wife and 2-year-old child after repeated verbal warnings were ignored. We also cover incidents involving elderly defenders, a Florida man who brought a knife to a gunfight, and an alarming report out of Jacksonville involving an alleged illegal registry of lawful gun carriers.
Plus, two new YouTube Shorts that serve as painful—but necessary—reminders about firearm safety:
A man fidgets with something in his pocket while waiting on pizza… and has a negligent discharge. Don’t be that guy. If you’re going to pocket carry, use a proper holster and keep that pocket clear.
A man filming himself with a gun chambers a round without realizing it—and pulls the trigger. It goes exactly how you think. Always treat every gun as if it’s loaded.
