--"The longer this goes on, the more likely it is an enemy action or a provocative action rather than a lone nut or two. If it also starts up in other cities, then there won't be much doubt."--

IMHO, if it starts up in other cities, we need to excersise our 2nd amendment right REGARDLESS of local law. Too bad the only ones allowed to do this now are in the state of Vermont. We need Vermont's law expanded nationwide.

If this escalates to other cities, we will have to defend ourselves. Those who have provided themselves with weapons already and learned how to use them, and [this is important] have developed various skills such as those used in hunting will be checking out the surroundings at all times. For example, when pumping gas into the SUV, scan for line-of-sight for potential rifle shots from woods. This involves looking farther than 50 feet, which is about as far as most people look.
