Comment: Hi Bycatch, it is interesting to me why reasonable minded people can be presented with the same basic facts and come to completely different conclusions but that is the case. 
I see the success this idiot had in killing 50 people to the loss of 1 hate filled terrorist. This makes me think that the terrorists like those odds. In a war of attrition this is very much in their favor, they see it and I see it. Some folks think the answer is to limit guns. If I had a magic wand I might well agree. But no magic exists.
Some folks want newer tougher laws. But those laws ensure law abiding folks are gunless. Laws don't exist for the lawless. It probably doesn't matter to a dead man if he is shot with a legal gun or an illegal gun. He is just as dead.
Cowering in a back room with your cell phone as your only defense does not work for my method of reasoning. I want a gun. 
When the bad guys come, as they always have and always will. I want me and my neighbor to have lots of guns and bullets.
