Massive Shooting in Aurora (CO) Theater

I agree that the illegal gun trade needs better enforcement but tightening gun laws on the legal trade is not the way to do that. I can kill you with a letter opener so we better ban those as well.

If banning guns reduced the frequency of these mass shootings by 10%, would you support it then? 25%? Any number? Because mamny coutries have not experience a repeat of mass shootings after tightening gun laws.
 
The last thing that we needed in a confused and panic stricken (dark) movie theater with clouds of tear gas were more idiots shooting guns.

I guarantee you that instead of 12 being dead we'd be talking about 50.

Besides, the dude was wearing body armor.

People exercising their 2nd amendment wouldn't have helped at all in this case. It would have just killed more people in the crossfire.
 
So what's the money trail background here? The gear he had must run into a significant amount of money, especially for an unemployed person. Are his parents loaded? Did he ever work before he bailed on college? Is there any info on that angle yet?

I'm trying my best to avoid reading too much about it until a couple weeks out, because like with every other story with any level of complexity to it, so much misinformation comes out so soon after the events.

I honestly believe that if the government ever tries to round up all the guns and remov e them from gun owners it woudl result in armed insurrection at the least. I know many people that would refuse to hand over their weapons. I can see a couple of them fighting to keep them. Once that starts happening more and more would join in their defense.

I could see a few different scenarios playing out, depending on how communication would work under a gun grab. Anything from tens of thousands of little Wacos to full scale resistance. I have a feeling we're going to find out.
