If you can't identify the threat you don't shoot at it.

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

however I'll take my chances with the alternative and actually put up a fight for my life if given the chance.

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.

I don't understand why you carried to the theater last night if you think people with guns in that theater would have only made it worse... You just contradicted yourself.

Jimmy covered it for me, sir.

I don't see that he contradicted himself. He has to walk from his car to the theater and back to his car. And the theater may not have been his only stop, either. Also, I doubt he was traveling with a crowd of 50+ people with him. Later, QD.

Sadly.... this is the truth. There's nothing you can do to stop completely random acts of violence with no motive. Even if the theater was packed to the brim with swat team, the criminal would done it in the parking lot, and if the parking lot was packed to the brim with swat team, he would have done it on the road.... ect ect ect..... there's no way to effectively safeguard the world from something like this happening. Depending on which side of politics youre on, you'll be able to use this as argument either for or against gun control.

Guns dont kill people, people kill people. If this guy walked into the theater with coke bottles filled with gasoline, would we ban plastic and gasoline? People have been killing people long before guns were invented. Gun control laws do nothing to control criminals who already express with their actions that they dont respect laws. The only thing gun rights do is give the civilian a fighting chance vs those who follow no rules.
