People KILL.
Some use guns, some use knives, some use rocks, some use ropes, some use their bare hands some use dogs, some use poison and may other methods.
How I wish one other person at that bat man movie had been armed.
We wouldn't be looking at that red haired idiot smirking on TV. He would be room temperature.
“FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS”!
All the bannings of ‘assault weapons’ and high capacity mags are the obvious solutions. And they’re the wrong solutions. The real solution is counterintuitive to many people. It is the opposite of what many people would think is the right choice. Not fewer guns, more guns. Everyone carry. Sounds crazy to many people but it’s the truth. What if every woman in the theatre had been carrying a gun in her purse and knew how to use it? What if just half of them had been carrying? How would this shooting have gone differently? Does the idea of an armed public seem frightening? Are you a person who shudders at the thought of being surrounded by hidden weapons? Do you think ‘Well then even more people would have been killed, you idiot!’? Like I said, it’s counterintuitive. What many think would be a more dangerous situation would actually be safer. Though I will agree with one point - at least one person who is alive right now would almost certainly be dead. Any guesses as to who that would be? Hint - he has orange hair.

Holmes needs to die. (”Whoever sheds man’s blood, by man his blood shall be shed. For in the image of God He made man.” Genesis 9:6)
It is a crime that it did not happen earlier, moments before (or after) he opened fire. No one should surrender his right to self defense to see a stupid movie. Justice demands that rights-denying institutions be held accountable.
The worst offenders are the antigun whack jobs and nihilists that create the environment and promote the life-denying philosophies and policies which encourage and enable Holmes and his ilk to act with impunity. These are the same crowd pushing for more gun bans right now—woe to these blind guides and hypocrites.

But we don't care about those people.
Anyone who doesn't passively allow themselves be victimized is uncivilized.

I heard the defensive use of a firearm happens about 2.5 million times a year??? I heard and saw that statistic back in the 90’s...I stand to be corrected...
A friend of mine used to manage a bank branch and he told me a story about how a local man who was known to open carry was in the bank making a deposit when a man with a mask rushed into the foyer area. He saw the guy with the open carry gun and ran as fast as possible out of the bank.
No one could possibly calculate how many crimes have been stopped cold by guns that are still in their holsters.
