Elijah Dickin, Indiana Mall Good Samaritan

A supercut of media coverage highlights the story of 22-year-old Elijah Dickin, who used a legally carried pistol to stop a mass shooter at an Indiana mall. Despite his heroic actions, some media outlets focused on the fact that he violated mall policy by carrying a weapon. The term "Good Samaritan" is criticized as a diminutive moniker used by the media to avoid praising a skilled marksman with a gun.
