This fool's actions will bring the anti-gun crown out of the wood work's.
14 dead, at least 50 injured in shooting at Colorado movie theater, police say | Fox News
I pray for the Survivors and the Family & Friends of the lost!
Folks ask why I carry two guns...Well if I did not I'd be off balance and walk in circles!

Didn't see this before trying to post my thread.
I can't believe no one else was carrying in a theatre with that many people. Due to our theatre selling alcohol I have to leave my gun in the car and the idea this could happen randomly scares me. I also wonder why there wasn't at least one person carrying in that theatre.
From a tactical analysis-
Attempting to take down a gunman (or two in this case) in a dark and crowded theater, with inclines/steps/steep ramps where people are running and screaming probably isn't the wisest course of action. You are better to hunker down and wait for a good opportunity to take a very close and well aimed shot when some innocent person's head isn't going to jump in the way.
An even better course of action is to use the commotion to get you and yours out a side door while you cover them.
Seems to me it should be just more evidence that more people, if qualified, should be allowed to carry. Just when you think it could not get any worse.....
If everyone was armed someone would have been close enough to stop this.

Sad for the families and friends, question after Alabama and now Colorado, where was the police protection the anti gun crowd talks about, not there, never leave home without my weapon, folks actually believe the police can protect a disarmed population. Guy was wearing body armor and helmet taking this guy down in a theater full of folks would be very difficult. Prayers go out to friends and family's of those killed or hurt.
agreed. that would have been my thinking. another point, the cops were there for crowd control and they still could not do anything to stop this guy until after the fact. just pointing out that the bad guys are every where and there is noting anyone can do to stop it.
Hillbilly proud.... you have a problem with that?
