They Chose Poorly: Criminals That Attacked Armed Victims

 From the Washington Examiner: "How everyday citizens reminded criminals why the Second Amendment matters." The article begins:

    Throughout 2023, everyday citizens reminded would-be murderers, thieves, and sexual offenders why the Founding Fathers wrote that the "right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

    Amid rising anti-police sentiment and left-wing politicians pushing soft-on-crime legislation, countless people found themselves face to face with criminals wanting to do them harm, but these lawful gun owners stood their ground and defended their families, homes, and businesses.

The article then recounts several such incidents:

• A pregnant woman and her husband that opened fire on an armed robber at a gas station;
• Another pregnant woman that delivered a taxpayer relief shot to an armed robber that ambushed her family in a parking garage;
• A father with his two sons that encountered a couple violent thugs;
• A homeowner attacked outside his home; and,
• A criminal that tried robbing a gun store while armed with a hammer.
