DU- What if the Magic Fairy at Ft. Hood was armed?

Could have those deaths/injuries been prevented if firearms were allowed on the base?
Could have an armed civilian or military person stopped the attacker sooner, before he killed and injured so many people?

Just wondering

2. or. . . .

would the death toll be much higher if everyone had a gun and started shooting randomly?

No- he would have used a knife, a sword, a axe...

14. They will purchase them off the black market, just like they purchase heroin

Not to mention the millions of guns which are already here illegally.

It's not doable.

Wait for it...

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

RW talking point

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Apr 3, 2014, 01:47 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's a dubious notion, but not hide worthy.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation:

Not a right wing talking point


Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Are you testing out the new alert system or what? (hope I'm juror #7!) Seriously... whatever your feelings are about gun control, the prohibition/black market angle seems like a valid point.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Please suspend the alerter's posting privileges for a week. This is a STUPID alert! Argue facts, don't try to play the RW card.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
 
BUT- a bunch of people were killed or wounded while we waited for the MPs to show up. The shooter offed himself as soon as he was confronted.

45. Yes. And, thank god, a bunch of gun toting soldiers trained to lay down a barrage didn't open fire.

An MP handled the situation. A bunch of cowboys would likely have made it worse. In fact, people would not have known who the bad guy with a gun was. They'd be shooting each other, thinking they were heroes. You gun guys really have a distorted view of these things.

You guys really believe, you'd assess the situation correctly, coolly pull your weapon before the first innocent person was killed, squeeze off a shot while not endangering others, and smoke a cigarette afterwards as you bask in the country's gratitude, awaiting Obama's congratulatory call to say express our thanks.


Hoyt says he was in the military, but his work there was classified... and won't tell us anything about it, so HE has a true prespective on teh situation.
It's too bad, Hoyt, that I can run your ISP and find you in just a few minutes... then, trace your military claim... in just a few more minutes...

DUmpmonkiez should have realized that after the last "I AM A MILITARY HERO" type we flamed out that you should be careful what you say...

I know facts and reality are hard for a DUchebag but every time a demented and mentally ill democrat starts shooting people in a gun free zone the one and only thing that stops a demented and mentally ill democrat from shooting  in a gun free zone is a person with a gun that usually shoots them or causes them to shoot themselves.

The libs think that everyone being armed would mean everyone shooting wildly in every direction with their eyes closed.

A bunch of idiots who have never been in service (Despite their lies) try to tell us what life on an installation is like and what it should be.  They all need to die in pain.

One of my teachers said the same thing about allowing students to carry on campus.  Basically, in her world, if a gunman walked in the room, all the people with concealed carry permits would shoot each other.

89. I can even tell which side you got it on by the way you walk and

how many cartridges you have in magazine and whether you have one in chamber.

I disagree, AW.  They should be allowed out in public, but with guards, so good and decent people can see just what liberalism does to its' subjects.

Easy on the news media. At least it's distracting them a little from that missing airplane.

This thread reminds me of the kiddie leash. It looked like a dog leash that parents put their kids on. How many libs became libs as a result of that traumatization ?
I don't see much of those leashes anymore. I thought they would never catch on.
