    Why do we seldom hear news reports of armed citizens defending themselves and others? Surely it happens much more than we hear about it being reported, right?
    Yes it happens a lot. But the media never reports those events. Sometimes they are never even be reported to police. Now the media is picking up every shooting in the US it seems. Even those where one person is killed and two injured including the shooter.

    All those shootings Vicki Goodwin mentions happened without CC.

    That place east of Waco....
    What is Abbott waiting for to sign this bill? This is absolute bullshit.
    Abbott is playing both sides. He can let it become law without his signature and tell people that he didn't sign it because:

    1. (Pro-2A) it doesn't go far enough to protect rights....

    ....or....

    2. (Anti-2A) it doesn't protect citizens from gun violence.

    By "seldom", I think you mean "never"?
    See "The Armed Citizen" every month in American Rifleman magazine. Eight to ten accounts of happy endings each month. Many near-victims are women.

    Same reason you don’t hear about sober drivers not killing anyone in an accident, it just doesn’t support a narrative.

    Ever wonder why criminal use of firearms stories ballooned in the media nationwide when Biden’s theme of the day was gun control? It is literally propaganda to convince the public that criminal use of firearms happens that something has to be done on the subject.

    AT&T, CBS, Comcast, Disney, and Newscorp control 90% of what you read, watch, or listen to. In the early 1980s, that share of media companies was owned by more than 50 companies.

    If you believe there is independent and unbiased coverage anywhere in America, I’ve got some ocean front property on Pecos for you.

    Except Abbott has already pledged to sign it...
