I dont think the guy shot himself because he was afraid of the other guys rifle, but i do think it played a role. The loon saw the end was near and probably just decided to do it himself. If he was not chased down by those two guys,he easily could have done much more damage, maybe visited another church. The left wing wants to phrase the story of course as "guns bad," while at the same time simply blowing off that he was at least partially stopped by two guys with guns. He called his dad while being chased and told him he wasnt going to survive, he knew. What bothers me the most is that some people think the worst thing about this tragedy was that two stand up guys with guns helped stop this maniac. I talked to one such person two nights ago. Nothing to a gun grabber is more important than grabbing guns. The average violent crime takes less than seven minutes and the average police response time is eleven minutes. The police cant be everywhere, so i for one am glad more citizens are legally carrying a gun. If they commit a crime in doing so, they need to sit in a cage just like the other dirt bags. Csseys got robbed the other day and i had just left the place. I thought about it later, what i would do had i arrived while this holdup was happening. Im not a 100% sure but most of us with a gun in that position wouldnt just drive off. These store clerks are sitting ducks, and the person and are persons responsible for this and similar crimes should do a mandatory twenty years prison sentence. That would have more of a positive affect than yet another gun law. We do not need vigilante justice, but i guarantee many of these punks breaking in houses and robbing stores would much prefer if they were the only ones with a gun.
