I had wondered about the gun laws out there, and was kind of surprised to see that people complained about how lax they were...how easy it was to get gun permits. Hard to believe their wasn't anyone else in the theatre armed and willing to try to slow him up. I suspect it would have been a different story in Florida. Just a couple weeks ago a 71 year old man stopped two armed robbers, shooting one of them. The police caught them both as they were trying to get away from him. He saved everyone from these idiots.
