Civilian CCW would not have stopped the first shooting? Perhaps, but it might have stopped it by the second or third. Weapons would *not* have been in backpacks (you obviously know little about CCW), but on the person of the owner, able to be produced in three seconds or so. Boot carry, small-of-back carry, in the case of the girls wearing skirts there’s always the classic “garter carry,” there’s Thunderwear.... lots of options.
I sure don’t carry my .44 in any stupid backpack!
And I could have drawn and put 4 Blue Glasers in his upper body mass before he could have blinked.

- Story is changing already -
MSNBC (alleges) the killer had:
One 9mm handgun
One .22 handgun

This may or may not be accurate

MSNBC is already interviewing a shrink who is talking of “root causes” and “history”!
Who cares!
The only thing the shrink had right is this was pre-meditated and based on previous killer’s methods
The time lapse between intial shooting(s?) and the mass killings is odd

Blame this on Schumer, McCarthy, Feinstein, Kennedy, Boxer, Kerry, Leahy, Edwards, Hillary -
And they will now be coming after your legally owned firearms
It would be a huge mistake to target me and mine

Second or third room ... I don't think it would have prevented carnage in the first.

LOL! Nothing like a gratuitous insult to make a poor point. You may simply have forgotten that we're talking about college students here. A CCW in a holster would be in the way and/or uncomfortable in an auditorium seat -- the "CCW location of choice" would most likely have been in backpacks. Assuming, of course, that the students took CCW seriously enough to be packing in the first place.
