"I Should've Been Armed!"

That’s what one survivor of the California bar massacre says. Meanwhile, we watch for the anti-gun fools to stomp and scream and demand that politicians make even more of their useless laws that not only do NOTHING to stop the bad guys from getting their guns, they also make the law-abiding into “easy targets” for them. And if we don’t do it, they call us “insensitive” and say we “wish for more people to get shot.” Never mind what they want doesn’t work, and never will. They vilify the NRA because they are staunch defenders of the constitutional protection (largely ignored) for our right to be armed for self defense.

A good example of this is our contention that these things usually happen IN a “gun-free zone,” which is what this bar was. Laws everywhere deny gun owners from bringing their guns along when drinking, and I’m sure this was true (if not by law, by custom) in California. “Gun-free zones” are one of the anti-gun fools’ favorite things. Never mind they are a MAGNET for killers to “come in and kill people.” Word is, the bar had UNARMED security guards. Unarmed guards are worse than useless in this kind of case (this is not a knock on unarmed security guards, because I used to be one). The proof of that is that the first person to die was a security guard. I say this as a former UNARMED security guard. Had something like this happened while I was on duty, I would probably be dead, now.

Unarmed security guards are told to “observe and report,” which, in this kind of case, is absolutely USELESS. That is NOT “security.” Word is, it only took the cops 3 minutes to respond. Commendable. But in that 3 minutes, the shooter killed 11 civilians, and the first cop on the scene. You do the math. The guy who thinks he should have been armed, is exactly right. The anti-gun fools are WRONG. The shooter had been referred for psychiatric workup previously, after trashing his own house, and he was not only deemed “not a danger to himself or others,” a decision 12 people dead proved wrong, but he was allowed to buy a gun legally. What went wrong there? Whatever did, 12 people are dead because of it. (Bearing Arms)
