Strange that anyone would take 3-month old baby or six year-old kid to a midnight movie screening....

When my wife and I had our first child, she stayed home and I worked copious evening shifts, so it was quite common for all of us to be out and about at midnight.
It's summer, so the school-age kids don't have anywhere to be in the morning.

No matter how insane some people may be, they still understand that their best odds are against a group of innocent, unarmed people
in an enclosed area.
Police are there to clean up the mess, take notes and comment on the sad state of the human condition. That isn't going to help you during such an event.

I carry everywhere I am legally permitted to. I keep myself up to date on the law of the state I live in, and the states I travel to where I can legally carry. I pay attention to my surroundings, and I regularly go to the range to pop some paper. A smart, well-qualified, legal gun owner will have the upper hand over a psychotic guy who grabs his gun and walks into the street.
Please don't lump CHL/CCW holders in with 'some gun owner' like the mainstream media does.
Similarly...here's a lovely story blaming Batman and action movies full of violence for his acts...from Yahoo (surprisingly
):Was James Holmes, Suspected Aurora Shooter, Inspired by Batman? - Yahoo!

Look, nowhere did I say outlaw them. I own a gun. What I said in my original post was that this tragedy is not a strong case for looser ccw laws. No one here knows for sure if no one else in that theatre had a gun. He did expect folks to have guns which is probably why he wore the vest. He gave up to the cops without a gun exchange.

This event had nothing to do with CCW, and everything to do with a complete lunatic.
