Really? Does ANYBODY carry around here?

Busy guy. It's too bad someone didn't terminate his existence.

The clock is ticking on a whole lot of bad, unconstitutional stuff yet to come from the Colorado legislature and their minions in minorly governments.

Only 3 years since we moved to AZ. Honestly, outside the friends we made. There's not a day goes by i regret moving, when we did.

24/7 I never leave the house with out. With living in a liberal commie controlled state now I would never get involved with any situation unless some one was directly threatening my family or my self.

I bet there was plenty of forewarning that this was a "bad guy" before this string of events.

They know nothing fires up the right like talk of gun control. Nothing.

They learned that the right will largely ignore everything else.

So, they are leaving guns alone while they go after everything else we hold dear. We've lost freedoms left and right over the last 2 years. But's it's cool, cause they left guns alone.

And to answer the OP, just because people carry, doesn't mean they will actually defend themselves or others. Who knows how many people leave their gun in their waistband as bad things are happening.

Damn shame, murder, attempted murder, home invasion and car jackings. Those are prime ways to get yourself gone. He was ripe for the picking... now it seems he'll rot on the vine. Probably do it all over again in 10 years.

I carry anytime I leave the house. The wife and I have access to a firearm when we are home.
If someone is not threatening me or mine directly and is not in my line of sight, I will not go looking for a fight. I will call 911 while getting myself and my wife the heck out of there! I carry for my protection. I am not a police officer and have zero interest in getting into a fight of any kind.
However, if I see someone abusing a child or a woman, for some reason I seem to step in to stop it. My wife doesn’t like it but she understands.

The character kicked in a door and pistol whipped the owner on the block where Dad lived.

He would have been 80 this year and while he had guns in the house, it doesn't sound like he would have had time to get to them.

It has made me think about safety and carrying and all that a lot today.

It is easy to say what you will do when it happens to you, in theory. But in the heat of the moment, no one can accurately predict how they would react.

Random shit like this is very scary and humbling. Especially when it hits that close to home.
