Movie shooting
Last night a man opened fire in a movie theater killing a dozen people. Acts like this will always happen regardless of gun laws, economy, adequate hugs from parents and so on. The best way in my opinion to handle matter like this is with justice. In Fl. we have the right to carry a handgun for self defense, imagine had there been an armed citizen in that theater capable of possible stopping the situation. I feel the best defense is being able to have an offense.

I agree with you. This was a horrible thing that happened. You never know what is going to happen. I think the courts will handle this the right way.
ReplyDeleteHI Joseph,
ReplyDeleteYes that was a horrible situation that happened to all of those defensless people. I feel so bad for them and their families and friends.
I do agree with you that it could have helped the situation had a citizen had a gun. However, I do think the laws about getting guns over there need to be changed. They were saying how he bought the weapons and amo off of craiglist. This easy availability of such dangerous weapons needs to be changed.
ReplyDeleteThis is so horrible and scary! I've heard alot of talk about putting metal detectors in movie theaters. However, next time (god forbid) it could be a bank or a grocery store...how awful that we have to be scared to go in public in fear of things like this!
ReplyDeleteI have mixed feeling on this. I'm not sure if having a firearm would have helped. There was tear gas thrown in the air, and it was dark, and people were running all over the place. This would have made it very difficult to see and being placed under pressure, hitting a target may not have been as easy as it is at a shooting range.
