You don't have to be a Ch 90 guy to "make the effort" to stop a lunatic doing 112.......... Juss sayin.
Ho-hum....... I was carrying at the Avengers movie. So what? Oh and this guy admitted to carrying at the Batman movie, so....ah...He didn't do ANYTHING there did he? BTW was he licensed in Maine to carry? Hmmmm. He didn't shoot anybody? I guess the only news here is the jerk was driving wrecklessly and "admitted" to planning to shoot his boss. Sooo...Tell me again the super relevant "Dark Knight Horrific Movie Theater Shooting" tie in here?

I only wanted to shoot my boss, not the entire theater! (you know your life is in the shit when you have to use that defense) I have been electing for my big boomstick and spare mag in the picket as opposed to my usual pocket-rocket. I think it's the responsible thing to do...
The wife asked me what I want for my birthday, I told her because of this shooting I was thinking of upgrading from my glock27 to something better. She said ok and asked how much!!!!!!!!!!
My brother runs a firearms training company in Maine, and the day after the Aurora incident, his e-mail inbox was jammed full of messages of people who want the safety course necessary for a carry permit.
I've talked to several friends/ family members, who probably never would have even thought about it before, now saying they want to take a class and apply for a permit. I'm not saying every one of them SHOULD be carrying a gun... but it's a boost for 2nd amendment supporters! Sent from my wicked smaht DROID RAZR
My insurance agent boss wrote me one of my recommendations when i went for my LTC..i went into his office yesterday with this article, put it in front of him and told him to cough up a raise seeing no one has gotten one in years..he didn't think it was as funny as everyone else did
