Holy crap!

If any of those people carried a concealed weapon, most of them would still be alive and uninjured.

There's probably some truth in this but then again what would actually happen when every yahoo started opening up? Do the yahoo's further away know that it's about a gunman over there or do they just see some other yahoo opening-up with a gun and open up on him, etc, etc.

Actually, there's a lot truth in it, and regardless of the various scenarios that might have been played out, the bottom line is that fewer people would have been killed or injured if at least a couple of people had concealed weapons to confront the gunman.

Is that one of your 'prophesies' then? Actually, MORE people might have been killed. Why are yanks so fucking self-absorbed? Y'all just assume that the rest of the world is obsessed with you. That shooting only made page 10 where I come from.

No, that's just common sense, which is apparently uncommon to somebody like you.

No that's not the bottom line boob. The bottom line is you have no idea and are just guessing, on top of that you are using it to punt your view on gun law. My guess is that in a nightclub where a few hundred were armed and a gunfight started about the same amount of people are likely to be killed in the chaos that would ensue. The irony is that the killer did have a conceal carry license and that you do not even think about another solution which is to consider stopping or at least have a thorough vetting process for the sale of assault rifles to your public.

Boob doesn't understand irony. He's a simple creature.

No, I'm sorry, but you're totally wrong. The mass chaos scenario you describe is just your biased imagination since nothing like that has ever happened. Again, common sense dictates that if law abiding citizens are armed, the severity of this type of event will be substantially reduced.

Try thinking about what you've said boob.

That's right bob, because these citizens will all be highly trained and experienced in armed urban combat of course. Well able to deal with the adrenal dump in a live gun-fight situation, cool and collected, in fact I have no idea why they even bother training armed response squads or the infantry, just get boob and his mates there and things'll be sorted.

At least 50 people killed at an Orlando, Florida gay nightclub! This shit has got to stop!

If any of those people carried a concealed weapon, most of them would still be alive and uninjured.

No guns in social settings, period. Anyone carrying is looking for trouble, or seeking to cause it. No one needs a gun to dance, and certainly not imbibe alcohol.

You're goofier than Arising. I suggest you renounce your stupid British heritage. Either that or get the fuck off the North American continent.

[Dalek Prime]

If I'm goofier than Arising, I don't feel that to be a bad thing. Now, if I was loopier than you, that's another story.

Boob believes in Hollywood, Disney and the Wild West!! Yeehaw Billy-Boob.

[bobevenson]

As you have all demonstrated, pathetic lap dogs of tyranny eventually begin to think like their masters.

But deep inside it hurts, doesn't it.
