Cincinnati Man Shoots at One-Year-Old Boy and is Shot by Man With a Concealed Carry Permit

If gun control advocates had their way, a one-year-old boy might very well be dead today. Fortunately, when one lunatic started shooting at innocent people, another man with a concealed carry permit was there to stop him.

A 62-year-old man with a gun in each hand fired at four people – including a 1-year-old boy – before a civilian with a concealed carry permit returned fire and wounded the shooter, cops told FOX19.

Thomas McCary is being held without bond on four counts of felonious assault.

McCary was arguing with a woman around 8 p.m. Sunday night and, when the woman’s brother, Patrick Ewing, approached, McCary pulled out a .38-caliber handgun and fired three shots at him, Cincinnati police said.

Ewing didn’t get hit, but he did get his own gun and returned fire, wounding McCary in the leg. Ewing had a permit to carry a concealed weapon.

Injured, McCary went into his house to get a second gun and, holding a weapon in each hand, he fired three shots in the direction of the woman, Jeaneta Walker, her 1-year-old son and a third man.

Ewing fired at McCary again to try to distract him as the victims fled indoors. McCary squeezed off a few more rounds, hitting no one, before withdrawing into his apartment, Cincinnati.com reported.

Now just imagine if the gun control crowd had their way and Ewing wasn’t able to be armed. Criminals are criminals — they aren’t going to care if guns are illegal, and all that would happen is people like Ewing, who follow the law, won’t be able to defend themselves against these kinds of violent psychopaths. How does anyone see this as a good thing, to turn us all into sitting ducks?
