Where was the good person with a gun to stop the shooter? Oh...this was California. That explains it.

Great post...all other mass shootings by dings in other states are promptly stopped by citizens with guns before they can do any harm... Like Ft. Hood for instance...

You're on the case Tex!

Ft. Hood was a gun free zone, so your point is worthless. And would fit better on DU or DKos.

Fort Hood might as well be another state. It's a military base, which means it has its own rules and regulations outside the jurisdiction of Texas gun laws.

Had Hasan gone on his jihad rampage outside the base, you can rest assured that some Texan would have shot him dead before he'd done much damage.

I bet if you counted the guns in the small town I live in you would find just as high a rate of gun ownership as you would in Texas. California, like Texas is a big state. It’s not the same all over.

Facts of Life, Lesson 763: Nutty as it sounds, the facility at Fort Hood is a gun free zone, no one in the building was armed at the time. It was stopped by armed civilian police AFTER 13 people had been killed.

In fairness to Tex, last I heard Ft Hood is an Army base and except for MPs nobody gets to tote a gun. Just a tiny detail I know but a detail just the same.

I assume that is sarcasm. If so, it is misplaced. Ft. Hood was essentially a gun-free zone. His point was buttressed. Your point, if you had one, misfired.

The soldiers at Ft Hood due to Army rules. Ft Hood may have been located in Texas but the base is a gun free zone.
