I would like to reply to that by saying in a very high stress situation like that - in a darkened theater - do you honestly think you would have been able to hit the Colorado shooter in a vulnerable place since he had on body armor? You only would have succeeded in drawing his fire to your area.
Not if he was dead. There is no body armor for the head.

yes, and keep in mind the OP did have one entire hour of training on the shooting range to get his permit. Note that all the cops and military in Boston fired all those shots and didn't manage to kill the younger brother. There is also the story told by the chief of police that they didn't kill the older brother either, that he was in fact run over by his sibling driving away. Either way, cops and soldiers miss a lot more than they hit. Good luck with your head shot in a darkened theater or on the square.
