I'm getting my conceal carry so i will be ready

No one is arguing that cops shouldn't have guns.

Joe Public panics and starts firing randomly into the theater and you get a very different outcome.

Too bad he stopped a gang member trying to kill another gang member... Not a mass murder..

Yes, off-duty cop...I agree with this, and great outcome

Not 30 moronic average-joes shooting all over the fukkin place

I don't know about you guys, but the majority of people I come across are absolute idiots with ZERO common sense.....And some people want these jerkoffs all carrying guns???

You do realize that you can't legally just put a gun on your hip and walk around town? You go through training and classes in order to conceal carry. Otherwise you're a criminal.

Yes I realize this....But can you guarantee that only the correct people will get a license to carry? I mean how hard is it to pass the training and classes?

All I know is that if the majority of the population were carrying shit would be 1000x worse than it is now, probably making terrible situations even worse a lot of the time.....It should be a specialized thing for truly deserving people only.......Cops are heavily trained on how to deal with crisis situations like this, your average citizen not nearly as much

No one died. I live in San Antonio, it wasnt gang related. His so called girl didnt wanna get serious with him. He shows back up to work, the china garden and chases patrons into a movie theater one person shot not killed. Off duty police woman working security at the movie theater shotz him coming outta the bathroom both people shot are still alive and in the hospital

i agree and think we should take it a step further: all countries should have nuclear weapons. seriously, who's going to start a war if they know they're gonna get nuked?

nukes save lives.
