Also. watching this makes me realize it might be good not to ban guns. If say 5 people had a gun in there, or many were armed, the shooter would be getting in a gun fight with at least one of them. Allowing those unarmed to get away. He could be kileld fairly quickly too if he was outnumbered. They were all sitting ducks, they could not do anything, they couldn't shoot back. Guns in the hands of good people makes plenty of sense to me.

Works for Texas. Respectable gun owners prevent further crime all the time, it just doesn't get reported on.

I've been to Austin. Texas gets a bad rap but Texans are seriously the nicest people in the US.

I hate everything Dallas related but I try to give the rest of them the benefit of the doubt. Yeah Austin seems pretty cool.
