Columbia, Maryland shopping mall shooting

Earlier today at least one suspect began firing shots in a Columbia, Maryland shoping mall. At this time at least 3 are confirmed dead. Not to cheapen the deaths of the victims but I suspect this mall was a 'gun free zone'. Gun free zones DO NOT WORK, clearly. The media and anti-gun movement are going to try and use this to further support stripping the right to bear arms from sane and upright citizens.

 

First, I urge everyone to go to http://www.gunfacts.info/ before believing any anti-firearm propaganda.

Second, I'd like to recommend the following books to both firearm owners and those that may have questions or concerns about firearms. Please I urge you to educate yourself before joining the anti-gun movement.

 

And if this makes you want to start carrying to protect yourself and your family, I urge you to seek proper training in your area as well as reading the book  Gun Laws By State - Reciprocity and Gun Laws Quick Reference Guide - 2014 Edition

Sandy Hook Elementary shooting

While this shooting at the Sandy Hook Elementary today in Connecticut is tragic, I'd like to stress something again. IT WAS A GUN FREE ZONE. Oh look a tango went into a school, a gun free zone, with allegedly two firearms and attacked children. You anti-gun nuts, this is not an excuse to take firearms away, this is an excuse to relax laws so that firearms can be carried by staff in schools to protect students, carried by parents (I'm seeing reports of at least one parent killed at the school) so they can protect themselves and their children etc. Thank you.

Portland Shooting

My commentary on this is a few days late, however I wanted to point out that in the Portland, Oregon mall shooting, again was a gun free zone... and guess what, a bad guy brought a firearm into this idiotic gun free zone and opened up... had law-abiding citizens been allowed by the mall to carry personal protection in the form of a firearm then there is a chance this could have stopped sooner. BANNING FIREARMS IN A PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT, BUSINESS, SCHOOL, HOSPITAL, RELIGIOUS CENTER etc... does NOT stop gun violence. CRIMINALS DON'T CARE ABOUT LAWS BY THEIR NATURE, NOR DO THEY CARE ABOUT YOUR SIGNAGE!

Empire State Building Shooting

Two people were killed and at least eight wounded in a shooting outside New York City's Empire State Building on Friday, creating chaos and shocking tourists and commuters who witnessed the bloody scene outside the tourist attraction.

But it's not what it seems... guy shot former co worker and killed them, police returned fire killed him and injured 8 bystanders. The police did more damage than the active shooter.

A 53-year-old fashion accessories designer, disgruntled over being fired a year ago, shot and killed a 41-year-old former co-worker three times with a .45 caliber handgun on a sidewalk near the landmark building, officials said.

Police returned fire, killing the shooter and wounding several bystanders, all of whom were expected to survive, Mayor Michael Bloomberg told a news conference.

I want to see how gun control handles this. This proves that firearms aren't dangerous, that only the people holding them are. I still support the right to bear arms 100% and I personally believe every household should have at least one firearm and one person confident and trained in it's use.

 

Batman shootings

 A gunman opened fire early Friday at a suburban Denver movie theater, leaving at least 14 people dead and 50 others injured, Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said.

 

AURORA, Colo. A gunman opened fire early Friday at a suburban Denver movie theater, leaving at least 14 people dead and 50 others injured, Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said.

People are always amazed when I insist on sitting in the back row at movie theaters... people are always amazed why, everywhere but work, I usually have at least one firearm on me. I've also often told people that any terrorist group, given half a brain, would send 5-10 people into movie theaters all over the U.S. at the midnight showing of some big summer blockbuster with ballbearing bombs or easily obtainable illegally modified automatic weapons and do this.

Fortunately this was not an organized terrorist attack, sadly 14 people are dead at the time of me posting this but this could have been in the hundreds. But guess what, every theater I have ever been in is a 'gun free zone'... the owners happilly put placards and stickers in the windows banning knives and firearms. Well guess what, I don't give a shit... if you see mine and want to ask me leave I gladly will. The matter of the fact is there are lunatics that don't give a damn about your window decal and, whether you like it or not, will come into your establishment and do harm if they feel inclined to do so.

This gun toting American will continue to go see movies in the theater, in fact I'll go see Batman tonight or tomorrow. This gun toting American will continue to carry concealed into theaters that prohibit it as weel, please feel more than welcome to approach me and ask me to leave and I will but I'm not leaving my weapon system in my vehicle. I am not going to sit in your loud darken theater with no protection...
