To those without reasoning abilities (leftists), they'll use this as an "I told you so". But for rational people (Conservatives), this is proof that "guns don't kill people, people kill people".
Although I dread the term, "teachable moment" (since hussein uses it so frequently), the reality is that had this happened in a gun-grabber city like Seattle or Portland, the death toll would have been far higher. Because Texas is pro-gun, the count was limited to only nine because of the proliferation of good guys with guns. If anything, the incident some 120 miles of where I'm composing this lends credence to the axiom that an armed society is a polite society. That was further evidenced by the calm and quiet aftermath with no looting, burning or rampaging which I attribute largely to the presence of guns.
