They all come from local news stations where it&#8217;s still big news when it happens that a little guy protects his home and his family, but Big Media doesn&#8217;t want to be bothered actually informing the country about the benefits of the private ownership of firearms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chief Tango sends us our feel good stories this Sunday morning.
