Man uses legal concealed firearm to free children trapped in vehicle sinking

[Maine CWP Training]

"Chris has always been one who has been prepared," Bruce Willden told TODAY of his son. "He never leaves the house when he doesn't have with these three items with him: A firearm, and a knife, and a portable flashlight."

The men tried to pry open the car doors and windows with no luck. Chris knew what he had to do: Using his handgun, he shot the window, and then used his knife to saw through the seatbelts.

It is nice to read of someone being helped like this. I would be eternally grateful to the young man if it had been my family in that car. Since it was necessary for him to use his weapon to shoot out the window, do you think the anti-gunners will complain about him having been armed? Kudos to the young fellow!!
