    the notion that arming citizens MAGICALLY fucking solves shooting massacres is STUPID. you guys like to play revisionist history and act like 1 solution to a scenario AFTER it happens solves everything.

    DUDE HAD FULL BODY ARMOR, Tactical vests, leggings, groin protector, throat protector, 4 guns, tactical mask. Colorado is a CCW state, but movie theaters are gun free zones. So your normal law abiding citizens followed the law, the gunman DIDNT, you know why? CAUSE HES A CRAZY MAD MAN.

    Arming citizens doesnt solve every shooting problem no matter how much you guys think it does

    No one said it would completely solve anything...however I'll take my chances with the alternative and actually put up a fight for my life if given the chance.

    But you say you'll open fire on him right? Even through a smoke screen? Where you can't see anything to identify?

    Like I said above, you'll take your chances with the alternative by shooting blindly into the crowd? Later, QD.

    I had another scenario played out on screen, but I figure there's no real reason to post it as I guessed the government has you trained in all possible forms of attack. I bow to you and apologize for questioning your marksmanship and expertise in these situations. Later, QD.

    Let's hear it...I can't see how having someone in that theater, fighting back, would have made it any worse.

    I heard that a 3 month old baby was among the dead and a 3 year was shot but, wounded. I asked myself wtf are the parents of a 3 month old and a 3 year old bringing their child to a movie premier at midnight

    Because it wont only be the person close enough to identify the aggressor that will be shooting. It is the jackass in the back row that will also get into the fray.


    For the record, I saw batman last night at Mall of GA and I was carrying my LCP.



    The sad fact that none of the politicos will acknowledge is that crimes like this are just about unpreventable. From the sounds of it, this was a well planned attack in which he expected to die in. If there was security that prevented him from getting into the theater, he could have just as easily hit them on the way out.
