I think it's a little unfair to ask that of civilians.
They thought they were going to a movie.

But one guy with a CC permit and a clear line of fire might have saved
some lives that day.

That fellow would have been...
1) shot by the police.
2) sued by everybody in the theater
3) God help him if he accidentally hit anybody.

After 911, I got a carry permit, primarily so I could
take a pistol in the car or motorhome without hassle.
I also carried it on the street for a while.
It gave me a false sense of security.
I determined that ANY action that I took would
involve WAY more risk to me than any help it could provide.

Ordinary people shouldn't carry guns.
But I'd defend their right to do so.- Hide quoted text -

The average person does seem to be WAY too stupid to be carrying. Im
not too sure that the class they take to get a permit is much help. I
know of a few local permit holders that think their pistol can defy
the laws of physics.
I dont bother with a permit. Since I get harassed fairly regularly by
the local police, it probably cant come to a good end.
