The Armed Citizen® December 7, 2018

A neighbor at an apartment complex in Clarksville, Ind., came to the aid of a mother and her young daughter who were being battered after the mom and her boyfriend had an argument that turned violent. When the armed citizen saw the man beating and kicking the women, he grabbed his gun and told the assailant to stop. The victims moved to safety as the suspect lunged at their protector. The neighbor warned the attacker several times to stop or he’d shoot. Police said no charges would be filed in the fatal shooting. (wdrb.com, Louisville, Ky., 10/17/18)

December 1970
During Washington, D.C., civil disturbances in September, a crowd of youths slipped past police lines and attempted to break into the Monarch Novelty Co. Greeted by the owner's son, who was armed with a shotgun, the crowd retreated, moved down the street, and looted another store instead. (Washington, D.C., Star.)
