    "“[I didn’t do it] to get any extra attention or to have people talk about me or anything I did,” he told the news station.

    Meyer added that he’s sharing his story because there aren’t enough “good stories from responsible, gun-owning people.”


    I like the cut of his jib. :thumbsup:

    IIRC it is illegal to not help or defend someone in Utah if you have a CCW.

    It's a shame the good guy didn't just pull the trigger instead of letting him run away. I know the bad guy was caught, but do you know how expensive a trial and housing him in a jail cell for the next 12-25 years is going to be.....

    That doesn't cost Derek a dime of his own money.

    Other than Fox News, no other network will carry this story because it does not help push their liberal gun grabbing agenda

    That's not surprising. That's SOP for the MSM.

    Shame too. I'm sure that officer and his coworkers are thankful for the good guy's efforts.
