If a gun owner isn't causing trouble, it is not news. If a gun owner is actually helping out, it is less than nothing. You're supposed to ignore it. If confronted with it, you spin it as a very bad thing. I find it amazing how the perception is that an armed citizen responding to an immediate threat is going to cause unnecessary risk to life and limb, yet a cop responding will be all peaches and cream. No bomb could possibly ever be detonated in response to a police arrival, but an armed citizen gets the draw on a perp? Boom! Up goes the bank. The Days of our trailers comment was precious.
