DrewEckhardt 0 #3 April 3, 2012 As your link demonstrates we need more guns in public. Most places in California apart from law enforcement officers only the politically connected are allowed to have guns in public to defend themselves if necessary which creates public places with large pools of unarmed victims for crackups to choose between. Instead of bystanders stopping the attacks after few if any victims have been shot such sprees end when the murderer decides to quit or the police show up much later. That can take a while, like when Anders Breivik went on his 90-minute Norweigian summer camp spree killing 69 and wounding 66. Federal shall-issue concealed carry permits would be good step towards ending such violence. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottMO 0 #4 April 3, 2012 you will never be able to predict or stop the initial random act of violence. you can only hope that someone can stop the threat after it starts. If it wasnt a gun, it would be the same person using a car to ram a crowded sidewalk, etc. Society, movies, lack of pariental guidence, or just plain random, these things will always take place..

Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaVinci 0 #6 April 3, 2012 Ever notice that crazies normally go to places that guns are not allowed to start killing people? You don't see many nutjobs start shooting at people at a gun show or range. Think there might be some reason? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
