"If he really believes that "too many guns" is a contributing factor in today's incident the people of L.A. better run away and hide."

DARNED STRAIGHT!! If there were "too many" guns, then the odds would be that at least one other person besides the perp would have been armed....and the perp(s I still believe their handler is wandering around loose) would have been dead before the attack could have been carried out.

I'm leaning toward Hamas...or at least a convenient sympathizer...anyone else?

Prediction: Local Arab male. Not actually attached to a terrorist group. Just heard one too many death to america speeches at the Mosque and decided to have at it. It is terrorism, but isolated. I could be wrong, but that is my gut feeling.

Sorry, but this is not accurate.

The shooter approached, drew a weapon and was immediately tackled and/or shot. If everybody within shooting distance had fired at him, the only likely result would have been a lot more friendly fire casualties.

Surprise attacks, by definition, almost always get off a few shots before defenders can respond.

Didn't you see The Matrix?

Moving Security to the front doors would only result in the attacks taking place outside rather than inside. Anywhere you locate Security, it will result in a large, stationary, vulnerable crowd.
