Exactly what a co-worker of mine said about this... He followed it up with the standard "those people would be alive if this person was not allowed to carry a gun."Euclidean said:Of course the solution to this will be more gun control.
Not ironic at all, for BGs it simply a target rich environment. What could've ended the situation quickly and saved lives was "Shall Issue" legislation in all states and abolishment of any and all restricted zones (within reason of course).Wingman said:that in a state that doesn't allow A CCW (for most civilians), it's the state that you need one the MOST!!!!

I'm GLAD you pursued my train of thought. I avoided the rant, but its something I think about every day when I send my kids to school or my wife shopping.maclean3 said:How much difference could one or two legally armed citizens made at that Denny's, or Columbine, or any of the other senseless killing sprees? These Diane Feinstein, Charles Schumer types need to wake up and get the Hell out of office. >

Got me to thinking Bob - of one of the classic ''excuses'', or shall we say ''justifications'', for further control - the absurd - ''if it saves just one more life'' rhetoric!the commissars who run the Republic of K will probably use this as an excuse to enact even MORE gun control measures!

I think the problem is that some politicians do understand that criminals don't follow the law. But those politicians don't really care as anti-gun laws are not about stopping crime but ensuring the populations dependency on the state.Dingle1911 said:Politicians just don't understand that criminals don't follow the law so making more laws is not the solution. I know, I am preaching to the choir, but I just had to say that.
