December 11, 200718 yr This statment proves you have noe clue about CC.You have no clue what I have no clue about.
December 11, 200718 yr The two of you have no clue about people with CC. They're not "cowboys" that just start firing in any direction, these people are trained and respect and understand what their responsibilities are. The problem is you both fear what you don't understand and neither of you understand guns or responsible people with them.It's not that hard to get a gun and start carrying it. It's not like you're a trained officer.

I hate to burst your bubble but I'm the last person you should say knows nothing about guns, in fact I'm one of the "responsible" people who own them. Speaking from experience, that doesn't make me able to determine good guys from bad guys or control adrenaline in a high stress situation better than anyone else.

Speaking from experience, that doesn't make me able to determine good guys from bad guys or control adrenaline in a high stress situation better than anyone else.Well, why don't you give me some examples of where people with CC just start shooting it out, since you're so experienced. It's easy to determine the bad guy, he's the one that's shooting the innocent ones. Not hard to spot.
December 11, 200718 yr It's not that hard to get a gun and start carrying it. It's not like you're a trained officer. The women that stopped the shooting wasn't one either. I can give you story after story where crimes were stopped by law abiding citizens with a gun if you want me to go there.

It's easy to determine the bad guy, he's the one that's shooting the innocent ones. Not hard to spot. That is laughable. Once shooting starts and people start returning fire how do you know who was innocent and who was protecting themselves? Not to mention the compounding amount of stray bullets and crossfire.
December 11, 200718 yr I can give you story after story where crimes were stopped by law abiding citizens with a gun if you want me to go there.And I'll give you the story of cops that were killed by hidden CC guns.
December 11, 200718 yr That is laughable. Once shooting starts and people start returning fire how do you know who was innocent and who was protecting themselves? Not to mention the compounding amount of stray bullets and crossfire.Your reasoning in this post is what's laughable, HB, no offense. Let me explain it this way, we all know that CC has been around a long while. In all that time, where are all the examples of the chaos you're speaking of/ I haven't seen it. What I have seen is too many stories of people being slaughtered because no one's allowed to defend and protect themselves. Do you think it's merely coincidence that these goofballs pick places where the think no one will have a gun? I'm sorry, I just don't believe you guys have really thought this through.
December 11, 200718 yr And I'll give you the story of cops that were killed by hidden CC guns.What, 1 vs thousands? Bring it on.

In all that time, where are all the examples of the chaos you're speaking of/ I haven't seen it. Because not nearly as many people carry concealed weapons as compared to those who don't. It's simple: adding more guns to any situation isn't going to make anyone safer. No amount of statistics can prove or disprove that, just logic.

I seriously doubt they heavily weigh the amount of CWs that will be at the place of their shooting. Especially considering they usually shoot themselves. Suffice to say they know how it's going to end, they don't really care how.
December 11, 200718 yr If you're implying that it's any other reason than a lack of interest in reading this thread, you're making a mistake. And this incident does nothing to disprove any point I've made in any other discussion. An designated officer took the actions here -- not some weekend Rambo. ...

No amount of statistics can prove or disprove that, just logic.The same logic that has cost countless people their lives and will continue to do so as long as people think this way. I seriously doubt they heavily weight the amount of CWs that will be at the place of their shooting. Especially considering they usually shoot themselves. Suffice to say they know how it's going to end, they don't really care how. Point is, too many are dying your way. Your way doesn't work.
December 11, 200718 yr If it's your family....one is enough.Tell that to families of the thousands of victims who could be here still if someone could have stopped them.
