Altho' the WHY is interesting, we don't know it yet any more than the profilers knew who the shooter was. It is speculation, SWAG speculation.

With the only certainty, what we do know is that We the People are both the future target and future defense of ourselves, families, and fellow Americans.

To that end, each of us, who is physically and emotionally able, should be armed. Armed with all weapons and tools as affirmed by our Constition. We and our babies are on the front line.

Handguns, concealed and elsewhere, shotguns and rifles - in our cars, places of work, and at home. Socialists' policies defining schools, churches, etc. to be gun-free easy kill zones is foolish and extremely dangerous.

Adequate ammunition for a protracted hot fire fight with multiple terrorists, 100+ rounds per weapon - with the weapons - hunting and full metal jacket.

Powered up cell phone.

Camera.

First aid - knowledge and supplies. As first responders, we must prepare to care for numerous gun shot, shrapnel, and crush injuries, and severe burns and shock victims of a bombing or rampage. It always takes a few minutes at a minimum for EMS to show on scene, and they in their big red vehicles and uniforms may become targets.

With rare exception, our police system is about crime historians. Since the '93 WTC and OKC bombings, we face unlawful combatants engaged in war crimes against our families. Uniformed cops may also become prime targets.

We the People are our only real defense in the first moments when it means the differnence between precious life and death for innocents. Some may ask why.
