But no matter how fast the cops respond they will never be there in time to stop these nuts. Only another gun will. That’s a sad fact. The gun restrictions enacted post event are meaningless. Until we find a way to end jealousy, greed, anger and rage we will have violence. As a species we must own that.
Except that the kind of guns used often will allow the perpetrator to murder far more people. Thinking of the scenes from Saving Private Ryan and the weapons used during that landing. Those kind of weapons used in battles should be restricted to the military as much as possible. Something like them was pointed at a crowd in Las Vegas at a country-western concert by a man who collected weapons if memory serves.
