A good reason why concealed carry is wise.

When Chicago banned handguns, handgun crime and deaths went up 65%.
It doesn't work to disarm law abiding citizens.
There are underlying motives for those who want to ban guns.
It most certainly is NOT "making us safer".

Arizona is one of the most liberally armed states in the nation. Pretty much anyone can get and carry a weapon, even concealed, anywhere they want. How come the fact that everyone has more guns didn't prevent this from happening? I'm told these types of massacres are the price you pay for living in a free society, but I'm just wondering why we have to pay over and over again. Is there a compromise we can reach on at least using all possible efforts to keep these kinds of mentally ill people from acquiring such a powerful weapon so easily? And don't assume I'm attacking the second amendment. I'm just searching for a solution to something that seems to be repeating itself.

Well dogma, what we do not need right now is a knee jerk reaction. If you take away the right to bear arms then only the criminals will have the guns. And dont count on your local sheriff/police to walk into harms way to save your ass. They will only show up afterwards to collect the evidence.
The biggest problem is that nobody in the press wants to recognize the fact that this guy was a nut.
Just look at all of the accusations being made and nobody has a shread of evidence to back it up.
Ask yourself, where was the sheriffs dept. when it came time to do a background check on this guy when he purchased his weapons?
Yeah, the sheriffs dept. blew it big time. So the only thing left for him to do is to blame everybody else while his pants are still around his knees.

The sheriff KNEW the killer had made death threats before.
But he covered and protected him, because he was the son of
a woman the Sheriff knew that worked for the country.
Dems hang together, even when they make death threats repeatedly.
Sheriff Doofus let him roam free. Now he's cya by blaming
the conservatives he despises for his party losing the midterm elections so badly.
I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Sheriff Dimwit let the nutjob go ahead and murder folks
so he could use it for political gain and revenge...

Oh, yes. Of course. See? We agree on something.
But then you've got to realize that the push for more conceal and carry permits as a result of this tragedy would likely lead to more untrained or not-sufficiently-trained people carrying guns, not fewer. And that would lead to more problems. You don't want to deputize the guy who really, really wants to be a hero.
Picking out a gunman in a public place and not hitting anyone else is not always easy. Policemen get it wrong from time to time, and they're trained out the wazoo.

Probably more than that; you just hate ne.

Nope it wouldn't be easy.
Then again in those cases the shooter has time to rant and walk around I think there's a better chance to pick him off.
Might not have helped here.
And it's fairly easy to get a CC now.
Most people just don't have 'em.
BTW yes there's always a downside to carrying a gun.

Why is it that libs think they are experts at being in the military when they never have been?
And, getting a CCW, like T posted before, is not that easy. You have to take the training that
qualifies you for APPLICATION to the sheriff's dept. You are then given a background check, and
the sheriff dept decides, if you passed everything, to grant you a ccw. The instructor here I plan? to go to,
is licensed by the State of Ohio, certified by the NRA, and has more than 30 years Firearm and Protection discipline.
Here is a web site (pertaining to Ohio) for you libs that would like to actually KNOW about ccw:

"The worst sheriff in America, Pima County's irresponsible Clarence Dupnik, has accomplished notable achievements in the past. For example, he assisted in the non-prosecution of fellow moonbats who threw pies at Ann Coulter when she tried to speak at the University of Arizona. When SB1070 passed with the overwhelming support of Arizona citizens alarmed by the inundation of the state by illegal aliens, this sheriff of a border county refused to enforce it.
But only after ignoring numerous warnings that Jared Loughner's psychosis would explode into violence and providing no security for Gabrielle Giffords's Congress on Your Corner event, then covering his incompetence by incongruously blaming the ensuing bloodbath on conservatives and taking the opportunity to denounce his own state as "the Mecca for prejudice and bigotry" has Dupnik achieved the ultimate liberal honor — a personal call from the Moonbat Messiah himself to thank him for a job well done.
Not just anyone gets a call like this. His heavy golf schedule doesn't leave Comrade Obama with a lot of free time.
Dupnik may be inept as a law enforcement officer, but when it comes to sowing seeds of discord and warping reality to fit hard left talking points, even liberal establishment pundits who are paid $millions per year are reduced to merely echoing his grotesque accusations. Gateway Pundit thinks we may have found a replacement for Robert Gibbs. Dupnik's devotion to partisan politics rather than public safety would make him even more suitable to head the DHS, after the clueless Big Sis inevitably resigns in disgrace.
"
Will he become Obama's new sheriff czar?

One of the Men Who Subdued Loughner Had a Gun, and He Was Ready to Use It
Four people are credited with subduing suspected shooter Jared Loughner before he could injure even more people in Tucson. Joseph Zamudio, one of those four people, describes the scene and how he was carrying a gun, and was ready to use it
