You beat me to it. I saw that this morning and thought I would post it here.

It just speaks to our society as it is today. The Brady people will blame this on guns, but the blame should go where it belongs. We have violence glorified everyday with music, video games, and movies.

These kids are only looking to emulate those they look up to, and right now they look up to thugs.

They probably just wanted to be like Daddy! You know a rotten apple doesn't fall far from a dead tree limb...

Well, if there is a silver lining to this dark cloud, it's that neither he nor anyone else got hurt. What if he would have attempted to rob a CCW holder, or was confronted by police, either of whom could have mistaken the guns he was carrying for real firearms? He's actually lucky that this ended the way it did. I can only imagine the outrage from the Bradys that would have ensued had he been killed by a CCW holder.
