Think of all the mass shootings that were deterred because of the armed good guys. One that comes to mind was the recent Dallas Mavericks victory parade after they won the NBA Title. This was a prime opportunity for urban thugs to go on a riotous rampage with widespread violence and loss of life. It never happened. Why? Because the good people of Texas are armed and the feral savages know better than to mess with a gun-carrying Texan. Thankfully, we have an abundance of Conservatives here who respect the Second Amendment and carry. Even at my church, we gun owners (and yes, that includes the preacher), take our weapons to worship. And, not surprisingly, we’ve never had a robbery or any other form of criminal activity.

Wish we could bring guns into church like Texas, but guns are banned in churches in Georgia.

"Think of all the mass shootings that were deterred because of the armed good guys."

Why isn't there a database with these kinds of deterred mass shootings?

*snort*

And one is not likely to be set up unless someone like NRA, John Lott, etc. does it. Not already set up because it doesn't fit the anti's template.
