Tom Clancy did a book on this a couple years ago. terrorists went into the mall and walked thru firing on all they could find and see. Fortunately there were a couple guys w/ spec Ops training who took em out. Now, tell me that Americans having CWP (concealed weapons permits) and packing could not have stopped this, it not killed the apes who did this, wouldn't have been a good thing!

If more people were packing, there would be a LOT less idiots doing crap like this. Particularly if they did not know who was or wasn't packing. A mall is a juicy target, because most CWP holders are male, not female. I am telling ya, if more of us were armed, the less likely this would be to happen!!!

Ever notice you never see crap like that happening in West Virginia. There has never been a mass murder either.

You might be surprised how many little women are packing these days. They don't call it the Great Equalizer for nothing. Society has gotten a great deal more polite here in Texas since CCW took effect about 10 years ago.
