Maybe not as rare as you think. They usually don't get the airtime, and unless an actual shooting takes place often go un-reported. Example: If a mugging is thwarted by and armed citizen without shots fired they will oftentimes just let it go since the would-be mugger will be long gone and the cops would just make nuisances of themselves when they do finally show up.

Handing out more guns will do more harm than good, but it's still nice to see it actually happen. Someone in the news for using a gun for something good for a change.
Why do I keep hearing about handing out guns? Who's handing out guns and where? Wherever they are doing this must be far from me, but I wish I could be there at least once. I could always use a few more guns, and to have them given to me would be a bonus.
