> They need to allow more concealed carry so when shit like this does go down, he gets 8/9 rounds off and someone pops him in the head. It is SO easy for any individual to make something like this happen. Pretty much anyone can get a gun or multiple guns one way or another and go into a mall, walmart, six flags, sports complexs etc and open fire on a huge crown of people that which 99%, more like 100% wont have a weapon to defend themselves. So, in that case, we are left to hide and hope or run. Good luck running from an AR-15. My dad was telling me on the news the other day in florida he saw something where a guy was at a mall in st augastine FL and had been waving a gun around pointing it and people, then shot towards someone, then rounds into a crowd hitting some lady in the leg. After 5 shots, a 57 year old retired vet pulled out his glock .45 and one shot kill to the head as the guy was trying to enter the mall. No charges filed etc against the guy who shot him. Dude should be a hero for this.

While I’d like to see more concealed carry, concealed carry is NOT A FEDERAL ISSUE. It is a state-level affair, and Colorado is more lenient than NYS in that area, although a permit is still required to carry concealed but not to own.

Also, as much as some may not realize, more concealed carry also means more UNTRAINED shooters. While it’s nice to think that someone could simply put a round through a bad guy’s head, the odds of it happening with MOST shooters are very slim. Most shooters don’t train in any way, except for shooting at a target at a rifle/pistol range.
