Then again, the whole scenario could have been avoided if there was no such ridiculous thing as a "concealed carry" permit. Why anyone is surprised when there are near tragic consequences to permitting citizens of a country run around with lethal weapons at their disposal is a mystery. How about we quit promoting the fallacy of self protection with firearms and instead impose harsher penalties on perpetrators of gun violence and make guns near impossible to to get unless one is a member of law enforcement??? I am embarrassed that my state recently joined the ranks of those who have drunk the "guns make us safer" kool aid. If I ever see anyone in my midst or around my child brandishing a weapon they better be law enforcement, or 911 is being called, law or not. :maddening:
