While I agree is give's the anti's fuel to use against us, they need to understand (pointless I guess) is that had citizens in the area been armed, they could have and should have stopped him dead in his tracks... One of the famous quotes Ted Nugent said to a group of us backstage..."911 should be a clean up call"...I absolutely agree...
If he didn't have guns it would have been a ballbat and golfclub killing spree. Crazy people will be crazy regardless if they are armed like Rambo or not. Just stinks that his weapon of choice will be blamed by many rather than himself. Pretty scary stuff.
Jim and to anyone else. When you have an anti-gun person speaking to you. Tell them to go research Australia then come talk to you. They'll look at you strangely , but this is what you need to know. A few years ago I read an article. The gist of it is this. They banned the right to carry arms. Crime went up 500% the following year and then continuted to rise. When criminals were questioned it was the general consensus they did it because they knew no one, but them was carrying a gun. I think I saw a follow up article later that said they reinstated the previous gun law and crime dropped dramatically. Can anyone confirm this? I've got too much to do and I shouldn't even be on right now...
