My sympathies to the victims as well.
I fear things like this will get worse before they get better. Unfortunately we will all pay the price in the loss of freedoms.
I can't help but wonder, if there were more encouragement to let the good guys carry, would that help discourage or at least change the outcome a little.
Unfortunately you are probably not to far off the mark Freedom and liberty will no doubt become more restricted <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />..
Sadly many people are led to believe that "NO Guns Allowed" signs and 911 will protect them. Those who plan these acts have no regard or care for Laws. They also know that with the exception of off duty Leos no one will have a means to resist and factor in to that the time it takes for the Leos to respond and actually enter the building, the BG has way to much time on his hands.
Another factor is this BG did not plan on walking out.
Encouraging concealed carry and doing away with "gun free" zones might at least reduce the number of causalities.
Less restrictive CCW is a positive step in the right direction. But is the legal system willing to take that step......
