Why would the defenders keep shooting once the gunman was down?
Okay so there is a small non-zero risk an innocent may be hit but at least the good guys take bystanders into account, while an assailant don't care.
Risk assessment is apparently too complicated for Liberals.

Honesty, I don’t know what to say about this. While I am fortunate to live in the most free gun zone in the US (AZ), I don’ think anyone in a nightclub that serves alcohol should be armed. Alcohol changes all rationality and factors regarding responsible gun handling. This is an attempt to support the lefts gun position.

Bill and Hillary Clinton claim America escalated the killing sin WWII when we killed the Germans and Japanese.

How does he know what would have happened?
Does he have a crystal ball or something?

I think those unfortunate souls who have attempted to hold up “cop bars” would vehemently disagree.

“More people would have died if club-goers were armed”
Excuse me for helping Bill out.
Bill’s argument is silly on its face.
A better argument would be “Over time we would have more deaths if drunk people all over the country carried guns in night clubs. The fifty lives saved in this situation would be outweighed by a larger number killed by armed angry drunks.”

Less people would have died if the police hadn't stood around outside for 3 hours.

More than ever it is clear that people really do need to be able to take care of themselves. We used to say "when seconds count the police are minutes away" but in this case they were hours away from doing anything.

If any of the patrons had been able to even take a few shots at the gunman that would have given others the chance to escape. And if the police had simply acted like ordinary armed civilians, or any soldier or Marine, they would have rushed into the building and started dragging out the wounded - even if they needed to keep the gunman busy with fire aimed in his general direction.

I’m willing to make an exception with Bill’s mind.

Clinton on Tuesday pushed for a ban on “assault weapons,” arguing that gun deaths dropped sharply after he signed a ban as president in the 1994. The act expired in 2004.

Someone tell this syphilitic fool that "gun deaths" have been "dropping sharply" since at least 1980, and continued to "drop sharply" after 2004. The AWB had nothing to do with it.

Oh, and fists and feet still kill more Americans than rifles of all types, including the dreaded "assault rifle".

Agreed.

Keep in mind that his father came to the US under the Reagan Administration. Likely trying to escape the Afghan_Soviet war. The Father, having political ties would have been given priority.

The Son/Killer was born in 1989 in the US. I’m very curious exactly when did the father get here. What has the Father been doing since then. Where or how did he make a living while in the US ?

Was the Father an active member of the Mosque?

Did the Father have any influence at the Mosque?

Does the Father have political connections in the US?

As I posted to another thread, I believe the Father used his son as a jihadi tool.

When Florida passed the ‘right to carry’ law, the libtards went ballistic (puny huh) stating that there would be a blood bath with everyone shooting everyone else.

Did not happen.

Bill Clinton: More people would have died if club-goers were armed

Let these Tyrannical fools rant and rave.

And let decent, patriotic, red-blooded American see and hear these totalitarian demagogues for exactly what they are.

Anyone with a functioning brain knows beyond any doubt that having armed citizens present would almost certainly have reduced the carnage. A lone killer can't be looking everywhere at once. It would have been a relatively simple matter for an armed citizen to cap the guy in the back of the head the moment he turned his back or entered the next room.

Instead, hundreds of defenseless people, en masse, cowered in fear, each waiting for their turn to die, or, if lucky, to escape by the grace of God.

So, with their own hysterical rhetoric, let these f-----g idiots (like the rapist, Bill Clinton) dig their own graves, and be hoisted with their own petards.

Meanwhile, real Americans who are willing to fight for their Lives and Liberty, will vote for Donald Trump!
