Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

“As I understand it, the perp in Lakewood used a fairly ordinary Beretta 9mm. Perhaps somebody can correct me on that?”

I read an article; unfortunately I can't find it now, but it said that he had a revolver and a semi-auto handgun. I believe the article identified both but I don't recall the make and model of either gun. The guy was a felon with a very violent past. He was not allowed to own any type of firearm. How much good did banning him from having a gun do? A law abiding citizens who knows the proper use of concealed carry is providing protection for more than just themselves. Which would you rather have, a police officer responding 10 minutes after you have been victimized and possibly killed or a good citizen on scene who is carrying and knows how to use a firearm? It is a no-brainer. The police can't be everywhere. The bad guys are pretty good at avoiding them Sorry I know I am preaching to the choir here.

“glaring terminology error such as using the world ‘clip’ when the world ‘magazine’ would be the appropriate choice”

One of my pet peeves also. Unfortunately the term is used extensively in WA state, even among long time gun owners (who should know better).
