Television show bias against guns is never-ending. Except for a couple of episodes on Paramount’s Yellowstone, you won’t see an entertainment television show with a civilian successfully using a gun defensively. Instead, something always seems to go wrong when guns are used defensively (from being fatally shot by the criminal without stopping the crime to getting in the way of police to continually having the gun stolen and use in a crime to it being used in an accidental shooting). In fact, after the Supreme Court’s Bruen decision earlier this year, television shows seem to be showing more bad defensive gun uses than ever before.
This episode of ABC’s “The Rookie” is no different (Season 6, Episode 7, April 30, 2024). This episode has an example of a young woman with a concealed handgun permit being berated by a police officer and then fired as a nanny for having a permitted concealed handgun. The implication is that only trained police officers should have a gun in the home.
It is somewhat depressing that this type of misinformation was seen by 4.5 million viewers. In our collection of 124 cases where armed civilians have stopped active shooting attacks, there is not one case that corresponds to the examples shown in these various TV shows where a concealed carry permit holder accidentally shoots a bystander or where they caused a bystander to be shot.
