Quote:WEST ALLIS (WITI) — A Marine Corps veteran was able to stop a man early Tuesday, March 12th from nearly kicking a woman to death. It happened near 102nd and Lincoln, and Wisconsin’s concealed carry law made his efforts possible.
Charlie Blackmore was driving home from work at 4:00 a.m. along Lincoln Avenue when he saw something on the sidewalk. Blackmore didn’t realize it was a woman on the ground being kicked in the head and stomach until he got closer.
That’s when he jumped out of his car and sprung into action.
“I said ‘stop’ and he starts coming towards me and that`s when I drew on him. He started getting closer and I said ‘get down on the ground,’” Blackmore said.
Blackmore held his gun on the suspect and called West Allis police. He says several times while waiting for police to arrive, the attacker moved toward him.
“I mean I’ve already made it up in mind that if he came at me I was going to have to take him down and I told him that. I warned him multiple times not to come towards me because he was a big guy and I wasn’t playing around and he didn’t seem like he was playing around,” Blackmore said.
Blackmore says police eventually showed up and had to force the suspect to the ground. They then asked to see Blackmore’s concealed carry permit.
“I put my hands up turned around and said ‘you can grab it out of my wallet.’ Checked my permit, gave me my wallet back, and then interviewed me for their paperwork,” Blackmore said.
West Allis police say that paperwork is not yet available. For that reason, the name of the attacker and his victim have not yet been released.
“She had a really big laceration by her eye and it looked like her nose was broken,” Blackmore said.
Blackmore didn’t catch any names either, but said the victim told him the man is an ex-boyfriend.
“She was not with him anymore and he had stalked her that day or something and he attacked her on her way to work,” Blackmore said.
Blackmore says situations like this are why he supports Wisconsin’s concealed carry law, and the rights of gun owners.
“We do good things. Not all of us are bad or crazy gun nuts. There are good people,” Blackmore said.
The West Allis police chief says these types of situations really are judgement calls for gun owners. While they don’t encourage this behavior, they appreciate citizens watching out for each other as long as they do it legally and are willing to accept the consequences.

Well, what do they encourage? Just driving on by? This guy should be applauded for his actions, not second guessed.

This event was just more evidence that the police aren't likely to be around when someone needs to defend him/herself or others. If one can't/won't look out for oneself, and those who will look out for others are encouraged not to do so, one just as well commit to being a victim. The left would have us believe there's nobility in that. I'd say it's just stupidity.
 
It sure sounds like they want people to stay out of it..

(sitting her shaking my head)
It's a shame when police think they are the only ones that can help and protect the people of a community. I guess that i am old fashoned and stuborn. I would be hard pressed to turn my head and not help someone in danger.
 
You have to be careful.Sometimes it's hard to tell who the bad guy is.I would probably try to help,always have,but you can get in a mess.
 
If our Corrupt Politicians where the ones being Beaten or one of their loved ones assaulted they might see things much differently! They would change their outlook of CCW in a different way!

I for one hate too wish ill will on certain people but this insanity must come to an end!

Let the beatings commence!

********The police are only minutes away, when seconds count!

I might not get out of the car if i saw it was Nancy Peliosi..

But that you are right there was a Senator that said people were making an issue of the TSA patdowns and then she got patted down reciently... She is singing a different tune now that she was the recipient of the added pat down. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/11/claire-mccaskill-tsa_n_2855526.html?utm_hp_ref=tsa
