<div>From KHQ</div><div> </div><div><p>LEWISTON, Idaho - Saturday morning around 8:30AM, Lewiston Police Officers were dispatched to the 200 block of 24th St North for a pit bull that had been shot by a pedestrian. </p><p>
Upon arrival officers contacted several subjects. Lewiston residents Wayne and Teresa Adams<br>advised they were walking with their dog north-bound on 24th St North when they were charged by an aggressive Pit Bull. Adams stated he feared for his wife's safety and she said she feared the Pit Bull was going to attack her dog that she was holding. Adams said that as the dog continued to charge at him and his wife, he realized that an attack was imminent. He deployed his pistol and shot one round into the Pit Bull. </p>
<p>Adams and other witnesses stated that although the dog had been shot they still had to physically remove the Pit Bull from their dog. No other animal or person was injured in the incident. The Pit Bull was transported to the Lewiston Vet Clinic where it was treated for a gunshot wound to the head. </p>
<p>The owner of the Pit Bull was identified as a juvenile residing a few houses away from where the incident occurred. Lewiston resident, Elizabeth Taylor, was determined to be the responsible adult party for the Pit Bull and she was subsequently cited for Harboring a Dangerous Dog. Both Wayne and Teresa Adams are lawful holders of Concealed Weapons Permits.<br>

I think conceal carry is like a double edged sword. It'll help in some cases and it'll have tragic consequences in others. I remember quite a number of years ago (20+ maybe) where a pregnant woman was shot in the head by a disabled veteran while she was in the process of robbing him on the streets of Oakland, CA. It was a huge controversy on so many different levels including the one where an Oakland hospital spent hundreds of thousands of dollars - that they could have otherwise donated to vaccinate hundreds of children - in keeping the brain dead woman alive until her fetus was developed enough to where it could be removed by c-section and she could be unplugged and left to die on the operating table. If I recall correctly, the disabled vet never faced any formal charges even though he did not have a legal carry permit.<br>

The claim, should somebody make it, that lots of these kinds of
events are being stopped regularly by people carrying concealed
weapons might be a myth. Saying that a gun might be helpful in
such a situation isn't a myth because we can't (yet) point to a
case where it stopped the shooter because we simply don't have
enough information. You would have to know how many of these
events have happened (classifying them somehow), in how many of
them people had concealed weapons on their person, and whether or
not having the weapon overall helped or hindered the situation.
There simply haven't been enough of these kinds of events to know
that. For all the media hype when one happens, they are actually
rare events.<br>

Yes, you'd have to be damn sure about your line of fire.
Firing in the middle of a frenzied crowd running panicked
for the exits would surely be asking for trouble.
However, it's my understanding that for a while during the
shooting the shooter had complete control of the
situation. Anyone trying to leave was shot. Many people
were playing dead in the hopes they would be passed
over. Firing on the shooter, even if he's in body armor,
might distract him enough that some people might have made
it to the exits. Body armor doesn't make you invincible,
depending on the armor and the caliber of the weapon used
you might still have made an impact, since he'd still be
hit by the blunt force of the bullet. In this situation,
though, you would probably also have been shot dead
shortly after because he was so well prepared (vest,
leggings, throat protector, groin protector, and a helmet
with a visor). Who knows? Telling a loved one "when I
start shooting, RUN for the exit and don't stop" might
have worked.<br>
<br>
Most other shootings like this we've heard about haven't
involved such a heavily armored assailant. In fact, quite
a few of them have taken place in areas where gun use is
often restricted, such as in schools or on university
campuses. Harris and Kliebold wore T-shirts and cargo
pants at Columbine. A student who had happened to have
smuggled a gun into the school might have been able to
have had a real impact on that event.<br>
<br>
An interesting thing to think about, in my opinion.
Apparently, that opinion is not shared on this list.<br>
