It couldn’t possibly be because there was more than one shooter in there...but hey, the FBI and Hussein said it was a ‘lone wolf’....ROFL...there isn’t anyone in this government now days that could find their butts if it was handed to them!!!

Never go anywhere without a gun.

Damn right. Never go anywhere without a gun. Never ride in a car without the seat belt. Never take out the fishing boat without a life vest. It is all basic safety equipment.

... indulge in abominable abominable activities.

Like going to work in an office building, or the supermarket, mall, ballgame, or Christmas party...

I would think with low lights and pounding music that half of those shot were already down before anyone knew what was going on.

Having been in a live shooter situation, I know that most people become stunned deer.

I stopped judging others about how they react. Unless you have prior experience or training, people will just not act.

The KIND of life we live turns out to be more important than the number of years in it. Rush the shooter? The cautious, careful, ever legal liability minded corporate policy folks won’t tell you this, but YES. If everybody had done that, the casualties would be most likely to be a handful if even that.

This went on for three HOURS. Long enough for even a slow DJ to stop.

In a mass shooting find a position of cover as best you can, reach into your purse, pull out your springfield, and take care of business.

It should be everybody’s free choice, from the gun to the seat belt; it is self defeating to make the 2nd amendment socialist.

At least half of it is attitude.

There may be more risk involved with jumping on the bastard than shooting the bastard, but it’s still often going to have a better overall outcome than trying to run away from the bastard.

Yup... I wasnt suggesting it should be mandated by law, just common sense.

And common sense also doesn’t play the paranoia game, which is the other extreme.

Taxman Bravo Zulu!

If all citizens paid attention and were willing to get involved when witnessing a crime, there would be far less crime.

Being armed helps!

One thing I could suggest would be that if you can conceal yourself well enough to gain a few seconds of visual hiding, would be to do that and then holler as loud as possible “Let’s storm that bastard!” Throw something at him, a chair, a desk, a large piece of equipment, whatever.

Not quite as neat or foolproof as shooting, but the guy who expected instant abject submission is still probably going to be very surprised and have disrupted focus. He may shoot in the general direction but that’s still long enough for others to act, or for you to act again.

Maybe there are places one can’t practically take a gun, but one can still take an attitude.

“Neither. Don’t go to bars or socialize with those who indulge in abominable activities.”

I wonder if they’re likely to attack churches.
