The Dark Knight Movie Massacre & Why Some Should Conceal Carry Everywhere They Go........
By
/ 23 July 2012
I
would venture to guess that the folks filing in to see the latest
Batman installment in Aurora, Colorado last Thursday evening didn’t
figure on over 70 of them getting shot before the credits rolled. The
last count I received before filing this column was 12 dead and 59
wounded.

As the news starting pouring in about what happened in the theater
this week when Satan’s spawn, James Holmes, donned Kevlar and a small
battery of weapons and opened fire on an unsuspecting crowd, I kept
thinking, “One fast-thinking and trained person who was armed/licensed
with a concealed weapon could have stopped that SOB right in his tracks
before the body count skyrocketed.”


The armed citizen could have either killed him, sent him running
for cover, or at least diverted his fire away from the masses and
toward their person. Some readers, no doubt, are saying, “Well that
would be stupid. What if that citizen got shot trying to protect
others?” To that I reply: Well, Dinky, if they would have been shot and
killed at least they would have died a hero. Have you ever heard of the
term “hero”?


The Aurora Dark Knight massacre is exactly why I carry a
gun everywhere I go—because crap always happens when you least expect
it. That’s why, as responsible citizens and gun owners, we must always
be ready and must always expect it because when it happens, it happens
fast; if you’re not ready, you and others are screwed.



Unfortunately, in today's world - the factor of life is survival. For those who say that is an area law enforcement should take care of, allow me to point out
that the theater was crawling with cops for the Batman opening to
control the crowds. By the time the police got to that particular
theater, it was all over. Blood was already running down the aisles and
the gunman had already left the building. You, my friend, are your first
responder … your first line of defense.


Stuff happens when and where you least expect it. It is
recommended best to be equipped with a gun—a
fire-breathing dragon of a weapon. Get proficient with it. Make it like
a cell phone: an additional appendage to your body. And then pray that
you’ll never have to use it.


However, should you be in line at the grocery store, or at Chili’s
eating a burger, or at a park playing football with your homies, and
some James Holmes wannabe shows up carting an arsenal and quoting Kafka
as he shoots kids … you’ll be ready. Simply find cover if you can, draw
your weapon, take a fine bead, and double tap the center mass of the
murderous jackass. Should he or she have a bulletproof vest on then pull
your sight picture up to the perp’s noggin and shoot him or her in the
head; it’ll explode like a watermelon. You’ll feel bad for a nanosecond.
But then the cops and families will show up and thank you for putting
Jack the Ripper down.

You!

    I Would Take Aim At His Privates First and Head Second...
    Privates not covered by Vest, so space just below Stomach, and Head shot too hard to do if moving around..so take him down and then the head Tap...

    Here are some of todays stories and gun violence. Notice, most of this gun violence is ILLEGAL guns:

    Just a quick look at WGN shows Chicago has a LOT of gun violence and most of the guns are illegal and the violence gang related or committed by gang people.

    So, taking legal guns makes citizens targets and gives criminals a baited field on which to hunt.

    230 have been killed to date in the city of government love and fire arms control, all most all black on black along with the several hundred wounded, the situation is so bad that Tiny Dancer, the liberal idiot son of Bo and Pelosi, has called on the Nation of Islam to patrol the streets, kool, cuz Calypso Louie is the one who called Bo Maaamma the mess-iah and for armed insurrection in America. But in his “favor”, Tiny Dancer staunchly attacked Chic-fila for “believing that marriage was between a man and a woman”, such beliefs are obviously “bigoted” and unacceptable in Chi-town, oddly it’s the same “belief” that Louie and until recently Bo Blunder had.

    Police are good, but too often they end up being crime scene techs, rather than defenders.

    They get a call when there is ALREADY a problem, too late./

    All true, but I understand the theatre was a "Gun Free" zone. As such, most law abiding citizens would have left their weapon in the car.

    I agree expect for places that don't allow guns at all, and I heard the theater didn't allow firearms at all, even if you have a conceal permit if your on private property you have to follow their rules.

    For a gun free theater it sure wasn't hard for him to get two long guns in, how did they miss that?

    He didn't go in the Front Door with the guns... once he was in the Cinema, he exited the fire door, grabbed his weapons from the car parked by the fire door, and then went back into the Cinema. They didn't miss anything - except for the fact that they could not provide enough protection, to protect those who left their guns in their cars because the theater disallowed them.

    But that's not relevant, the simple fact is, by declaring it a gun free zone they are guilty of neglect if they can't keep all guns out.

    He was charged with entering in through a back door for the commission of a crime, so either he had help or the theater should be liable for failing to have an alarm on the back door, suits have been filed already.

    Good, maybe paying off millions because they created this 'gun free' zone will get their attention.

    It will be interesting, the first couple of suits weren't from those actually in the theater, so we'll have to wait for those who were actually injured for some thing significant.

    he first bought his ticket - waited until everyone was seated then stole out the side entrance, propped it open and went to his car got 'dressed' then sneaked back into the threatre thru the side door.

    Maybe so. Then again, a half a dozen trained/licensed, but inexperienced, people with concealed firearms in a dark crowded panic-filled room, reacting with varying degrees of clear thinking might have turned as bad, or worse.

    Can you give us a few examples, where armed intended victims, actually made thing "bad, or worse"?

    Hasn't history shown us, that when only the murderers have guns, it is as bad as it gets?

    But, but he should have simply did what the *CRIMINALS* told him to do, and he *MIGHT* not have gotten hurt! He was *WORSE* than they were! They never shot anyone, and he *KNOWINGLY* brought a gun to a peaceful Internet cafe!

    Wasn't it hilarious when the "gangstas" busted their butts getting out of there because of one old man!

    Sad that he didn't do head shots, and made the Society just a little bit better.

    You are wrong.. everyone would have been shooting at HIM!.. He would look like swiss cheese with hamburger mixed in.

    Most CCW's holders have some experience and some training. Many have exclusive training in defensive shooting - even more then police.

    You are right, maybe if someone had a gun he could of been stopped before taking so many lives and harming so many people. Guns are tools just like any other tool, are we going to ban tire irons , baseball bats, frying pans ? You can kill with them also.

    Is that an absolute rule or are there some law enforcement officers allowed to carry firearms, like quick reaction teams?

    On rare occasions, there are certain trained officers who can be given rifles, if a situation has arisen where they're needed. But none of our police carry firearms during their daily duties.
