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.
Thank you for being observent. That was the point I was trying to make. I think the Colorado shooter had a rifle. Anyone with a CCW would have a pistol and making a head shot with a pistol from a distance and in a darkened theater AND in a high stress (person shooting at you; people screaming; people running around) situation would be almost impossible.

Someone shooting back with a pistol in that situation would have a far more likely chance of hitting a bystander than the head shot on the bad guy.
