And the reality is you can't stop these nut jobs. If everyone in a movie theatre was required to carry an AR-15 then the nut jobs would start bombing just like they do in Israel which allows carrying guns without a permit. Can't remember the last time I heard of a person shooting up a restaurant in Israel but they'll blow themselves up in one.
Non3e of the gangbangers realy know how to shoot though. They would wind up killing everyone the shooter missed and never hit the shooter. There was a drive by shooting in brooklyn over the weekend. 6 people were hit, none were the intended targets.
