“You might not even have three survivors,” said Mr. Shrum, a top campaign aide to now-Secretary of State John Kerry during his failed 2004 presidential bid.

It’s hard to imagine how the massacre at the Emanuel AME Church that left nine dead could have been worse, but a top Democratic strategist says the shooting would have been a “horror” if the black parishioners were armed.
“Now I cannot imagine the horror that could have occurred if people were sitting around with concealed weapons, this thing started, and you have a full-scale gunfight,” said Democratic advisor Bob Shrum on Friday’s episode of MSNBC’s “The Ed Show.”
“You might not even have three survivors,” said Mr. Shrum, a top campaign aide to now-Secretary of State John Kerry during his failed 2004 presidential bid.

One of the columns comments.
...Said another commenter: “I can tell you what would have happened; instead of 9 dead there might have been 1, maybe 2 people dead before the shooter was taken out.”
Yes, and we wouldn't have what will sure to be a long, drawn out trial with demands for gun control from the drive-bys every day.
I see Shrum is still a tool.
No...
We actually do have precedence for this and the ending is a better one.
What a moron!
A gunfight requires two sides. Once the perp is shot, there is no opposing side. Game over.
I get it... ARMED black people at a democrat convention...
which would demand armed white people.. the entertainment factor would jump astrologically..
Oh imagine the horror..one dead perp, saved lives, and no cries of racism.
I totally know. Imagine having two dead (one being Roof) instead of 9 parishioners. Oh the horror!
The perp would have tried to find a different gun free zone to make his statement.
What that leftist is actually saying is that if there had been someone armed in that church it would have totally destroyed the left’s ability to try to ban guns in this country which is what they want..remember, just like Adolf Hitler once said, the only way to control the people is to disarm them. If there had just been ONE security guard at the door of this church with a handgun, this Roof madman would have turned around and WALKED AWAY. Originally his plan was to shoot up a local college but he decided not to, why, because they had SECURITY
This guy should win some kind of stupid award.
“I see Shrum is still a tool.”

and a fool.
A horror show for Shrum, perhaps, as his narrative on gun control would have been shot to hell.
Is this the same Bob Shrum who was the wholly inept campaign manager for various Democrat presidential candidates who lost?
““Now I cannot imagine the horror that could have occurred if people were sitting around with concealed weapons, this thing started, and you have a full-scale gunfight,” said Democratic advisor Bob Shrum on Friday’s episode of MSNBC’s “The Ed Show.”
So in essence youre saying black people are incapable of properly handling firearms.
Bob Shrum has neither smiled nor set foot in any church in the last forty years.
What a sad little apple he is.
“You might not even have three survivors,” said Mr. Shrum, a top campaign aide to now-Secretary of State John Kerry during his failed 2004 presidential bid.
Do they mean it? Or are they lying to further their agenda?
Is it truly a different universe they exist in?
And how can we live with them?
What gun battle is he imagining?
Also Bob Shrum does not want to have means to defend his own self then?
