Truth!
Glad he made it out okay, but yes, Bailey is right, what's the deal with these maniacs getting defense rifles and shooting cops that pull them over? Watch, come July 1, if these things happen we can all wave our fingers in the Dems faces and go "YOUR LAWS DID NOTHING!!! SEE!!!!" [Bang]

Gun Control advocates [incld MSM] will do everything possible to place 6 pointed yellow stars on gun owners [not that they haven't already] demonizing them as "Dangerous, threats to society"

WAY OT TIN FOIL HAT NEXT FEW WORDS:

I would not be surprised to see something where a "Gun Owner" went on a rampage at NRA headquarters.

Headline to read.

GUN NUT, GOES NUTS, GUNS GUN NUTS

This is exactly why concealed carry (or any kind of carry) needs to be protected and encouraged.

But then it would make it look like the wild west! [facepalm]
The failed liberal logic just baffles me... they think, thanks to Hollyweird, that the Wild West was some kind of archaic, anarchist society with murder and mayhem... actually the murder rate was no where near the percent we've seen in the past 25 years. And they fail to realize that if everyone is armed criminals would have to be pretty ballsy to try anything.

I don't want to turn this into a political debate. I am glad the officer is okay and I am very curious to see what further details there are regarding this. I have to say though, come July 1, if this happens more, we won't be waiving our fingers in the Dems faces...the Dems will make more legislation stating, "See, the only way to make you safe is to get all these weapons off the street, we need more laws."

Bingo. "Would you really want lots of people shooting wildly at each other in that theater?" No, but I daresay it would take a suicidal maniac to even TRY something like that KNOWING everyone would be shooting back at him.

Oh yeah, because if crime goes down, they'll say it's because of the laws, but if crime goes up, they'll say it's because we need more. I forgot, you can't talk logic with these people. [facepalm]
