I saw a clear full body picture of the Omaha shooter. Anyone who
had a concealed weapon and who could shoot decently could have
lessened the carnage. If you got a CCW, carry your weapon.

that mall was posted "NO guns".
Illegal to carry there,permit or not.
Don't do business with places that post "NO guns".
I do that. The last time was with an audio-video store from whom I had
purchased equipment to the tune of $11,000.00. I try to shop local and
would have saved about 900.00 if I had purchased online, but like to
keep my business in my community if possible. As we were beginning to
load my van, the owner happened to notice my waistband holster. He
gently mentioned that he doesn't allow guns on his property and would
I please not bring it onto the premises next time. I said, 'Fine. But
since the reason I made the purchase from you, and not the internet,
was to take advantage of local support and service face-to-face. you
have just told me not to come back. So please cancel the order. I'll
get my stuff elsewhere.'
The look on his face was priceless.
EXCELLENT!
interestingly,Costco has a "No Guns" policy,but does NOT post signs at
their entries(How two-faced;they don't want CCW,but don't want to lose the
business either).
In the Orlando area,Tuesday Morning has been the only store I've
encountered that was posted "No guns".(I've never done business with them
anyways,just noticed the sign while riding by on my bike.)
What's ironic is that the legal carriers of concealed guns are NOT the ones
anyone has to worry about. Concealed Carry Permit holders have established
a SUBERB record in every state they are allowed.They are more law-abiding
than police.
