No More Mister Nice Blog in Just Another American Massacre is absolutely right. This story will unfortunately bring out the gun control people saying if people could carry concealed handguns things like this wouldn't have happened. In fact Instapundit is already saying this.
No More Mister Nice Blog is right: "Here's what I think: Law-abiding citizens packing heat sometimes do prevent horrors like this, or minimize the number of innocent victims. But the gun culture that puts weapons in the hands of those law-abiding citizens is the same gun culture that makes it too freaking easy for sickos and psychopaths to arm themselves for slaughter. As long as the gun absolutists insist that it's jackbooted totalitarianism to have background checks at gun shows, or to make serious attempts to shut down dealers who sell to straw purchasers with impunity, we'll have plenty of incidents like this."
And yeah, I believe in gun control and the first clause of the 2nd Amendment.
