Woman With Handgun Stops Mass Shooter With AR-15, Where Is The Mainstream Media?
About this video
Colion argues that mainstream media ignored a defensive gun use incident in Charleston, West Virginia, where a woman with a handgun reportedly stopped an armed man from potentially committing a mass shooting. He contrasts the lack of coverage with extensive reporting on the Uvaldi shooting and claims media outlets selectively report gun stories to avoid promoting Second Amendment support. Colion cites statistics he attributes to CDC and National Institute of Justice studies to argue that defensive gun uses are common and that rifles like AR-15s are used in fewer homicides than other weapons.
Key takeaways
- Colion believes mainstream media deliberately underreports defensive gun use stories to shape public opinion against Second Amendment rights
- Colion describes a Charleston incident where he says a woman with a handgun stopped a potential mass shooting, receiving minimal national media attention
- Colion argues that defensive gun use is far more common than mainstream reporting suggests, citing studies he claims show 500,000 to 3+ million defensive uses annually
