The contrast between the two Aurora shootings couldn’t be more striking. In the first, a potential holocaust was prevented by an armed citizen taking action. In the second, the perpetrator was free to act out his evil intent on unarmed innocents, knowing that none could return fire. The world knows about the Aurora movie-theater shooting; the world also needs to know about the Aurora church shooting.
Good article. Yes, the media sees to it that the anti-gun propaganda comes out in their reporting. They quiet the stories which show that armed citizens can protect life. They also muffle the fact that taking guns away from citizens creates more violence because they can't protect themselves.

"Gun free zones," pushed by liberal politicians, such as the mayor of NYC, are an atrocity. NYC is one of the most, if not the most violent cities in the U.S. As you see in the case of the movie theater massacre, "gun free zone" is meaningless to the perpetrators. So there everyone else besides the sick bustard is....sitting ducks. Absolutely ridiculous. When are people going to get it? There's a reason our forefathers saw to it that citizens have the right to keep and bear arms. I hope future generations will fight to keep it that way.

I'm not sure about sitting ducks but I am sure that in a world where only criminals and madmen have guns true horror shows can occur.

I am a big fan of OC and CC. I am also a big fan of gun education and severe penalties if you screw up and hurt/kill an innocent person with your gun.
Well, I don't know what else to call innocent people, with no way to protect themselves sitting in a movie theater or other establishment when a mad man comes in brandishing a deadly weapon and firing point blank at as many people as he can in a short time. Those people could hardly do a thing to save themselves. If someone, a responsible gun handler had had a gun, the situation might have been improved. He might have been able to come up from behind the killer and finish his a$$ off.
