"Quick Draw satirized the westerns that were popular among
the American public at the time. His character was
well-intentioned, but somewhat dim. His main catchphrases
were "Now hold on there!" and "I'll do the thin'in' around
here and don't you forget it!" Also if he got hurt he would
often say "Ooooh that smarts!" One of the main running gags
in the shorts was him accidentally shooting himself with his
own six-shooter."

 In contrast, here, over the years I've read innumerable reports of
someone attempting to rob a gold shop and the owner pops out of  the
back room with a gun and shoots the robber, usually killing him. No
charges made.

What would be pertinent would be innumerable reports of old folks in Florida going for a walk in their residential neighborhoods in Florida and having to shoot... well, whoever Mr. Tricycle fantasizes would attack him.
Got a bunch of citations like that?
