Mass murder is already illegal, but liberals feel (not “think”, libs don’t approve of thinking) that a law against firearms would have stopped this guy? Amazing.

Well, let’s see . . .

If he didn’t have a gun, he’d probably have built himself a bomb. Once they start using bombs in place of bombs, what will be outlaw then? Fertilizer?

What will they blame then?

Oops, an unfortunate demonstration of why it is good to proofread a post before clicking on the “I have already previewed or do not wish to preview this composition.”

And yet, the movie theater’s policy did not permit concealed firearms. Just think if a handful had been packing.

tbe theater was a pen full of helpless sheep and the shooter was the wolf. Where were the sheep dogs? They were muzzled at the front door.

The guy had tear gas? Pretty sure it’s highly illegal to get that. So he had no regard for the law.

I refuse to patronize businesses that require me to disarm to enter their property. I also politely inform them why.
