Dune, you should know that this is a broadly painted image by those in the main stream media because they are an anti-freedom/anti-self defense group. They don't believe that plain civilians have the right to carry a gun, much less own one, so every report that hits the news about gun violence portrays the homeowner/shopkeeper as the 'Shooter and the criminal/perpetrator as a 'Shooting Victim.
Rarely do news agencies (TV or Print) bother to correctly report self defense shootings as justifiable as evidenced by the Pearl, MS school shooting. The media reported that a student started shooting other students with a .30-.30 hunting rifle and was soon tackled and held to the ground by other students as well as a teacher.
Only ONE media outlet ever bothered to report that the student stopped shooting because the vice principal of the school had a .45 caliber handgun pointed at the student. This vice principal, instead of being commended for stopping the shooting and saving lives (having had to sprint 1/4 mile to his truck and back for the gun because of stupid no gun zones), was villified for daring to bring a gun on to school grounds.
Ain't america great?
