Buffalo Shooting Witness: “More people should be armed. It’s not the gun, it’s the person with the gun.”

A Buffalo resident who had just left the supermarket where a mass shooting took place this past weekend was interviewed by the media after the incident. And I have to say, I agree with his statement. New York is one of the few “May Issue” states left, which means it is up to a judge as to whether or not you will get a concealed carry permit. This, along with the fact that New York doesn’t recognize any other state’s permits, there are much fewer concealed carriers than compared to other states, such as Florida, which has over 2 million permit holders.

“This is ridiculous. Something has to change from the bottom to the top. If they are not going to do something, we have to do something. This is ridiculous. After the security guard got shot, he got a gun shooting people still. If more people were armed and knew what they were doing with a gun… cause it’s not the gun, it’s the person with the gun that don’t know how to act.”

I don’t know how you can prevent something like this from happening again. The police can’t be everywhere. And making it harder for law-abiding citizens to carry a gun for self-defense or implementing more gun-free zones is not an answer.

Buffalo New York Gun Free Zones = Kill Zones

100% correct! If you really want to cause liberals to blow a fuse point out that gun control laws are racist! Minorities are a larger percentage of the population in big cities. Most big cities are run by democrats and therefore have the most extreme gun control laws. So minorities are more affected by these laws than white people are. Gun control laws are racist! This piece of garbage chose a low crime black neighborhood because he knew that no one would be armed because of the government. And because it’s a low crime area there was less chance of illegally armed gangbangers getting involved. If a high number of gun owners are the problem then why aren’t red states having massive increases in gun crime? It’s democrat run states and cities that have seen huge spikes of violent crime because the criminals know their victims can’t defend themselves and even when they’re caught these liberal prosecutors let them go! These cities will continue to spiral out of control as long as they refuse to let law abiding citizens use the god given right of self defense!

This has been an ongoing problem for decades. Politicians have convinced many people that getting rid of guns will make people safer and there will less crime – this is not the case. Many cities/states have tried to outlaw or severely restrict guns (How did that work, Chicago, NYC, California?) and it has been a failure. You can take every gun off the streets and guess what? You will STILL have a crime problem! Whereas if you take the criminal off the streets, you will not have a gun problem! To top that off, statistics show that those who have permits to carry are, as a group, much safer than police officers.
Most of our politicians are interested in one thing only – getting re-elected again and again, where are our statesmen? There is no simple solution and not every solution will work in all cases – but – a good start would be to get the criminals off the street!

Just my 2¢ worth

Here’s a statement from a USCCA member: “I could lay my gun on the table of an outdoor restaurant, and it could lay there forever and never shoot anyone”.
