And there are 53 wounded in addition.

But they were mostly all Gay and not like sirs of CU4, so it's okay.

Right?

C'mon, guys, let's hear a SOLUTION.

 

=============================================

The reasons no one ever strutted into Miss Kitty's Bar in Dodge City on Gunsmoke and shot up all the gamblers, ladies of the evening, bartenders and the piano player were as follows:

(1) Marshall Dillon made the cowboys fresh off the trail hand over their firearms to him and Festus before they were permitted to carouse.

(2) No one had the technology to manufacture semi-automatic assault weapons fitted with huge ammo clips back in the 1880's.

 

Here is why Marshall Dillon's plan would not work now:

(1) The Gun Lobby gives so much money to the NRA and Congress that gun laws restricting assault weapons and huge clips and ammo be made available for purchase by any gun nut in the nation, be they Muslim, Christian, Jew, Atheist or Follower of his Noodliness, the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

(2) taking away them cowpoke's guns would clearly be a violation of the Second Amendment rights of  binging cowpokes. Festus and the Marshall would be ordered to stop taking them cowpoke's guns and ammo.

 

The upshot is that We the People are less safe from gun nuts than the citizens of Dodge in 1886.

Actually, I exaggerated a bit.
I should have said 49  people were murdered. The shooter was killed, but only to make him stop shooting. He was a perp, not a victim.

The thing is that there have been multiple suggestions made and pushed, to better minimize such acts.   But since they're not ideologically driven, with the mindset of dissolving a Constitutional right, they're routinely ignored, and the ignorant inferrence that nothing is being done is repeated.  Without even knowing, I bet this location was one of those proverbial "gun free zones".  Would I be correct?

Wyatt Earp actually did this in real life. That is why he was shooting the Clantons. 

Miss Kitty got kidnapped twice a year.

The Gun lobby gets its money from a very large number of American citizens , who are liable to be a larger group if the second amendment is seriously threatened.

 Can this incident be the ending of the silly tradition of the "Gun Free Zone"?

In the space of about a year we have had two guys (and a gal) pledge their lives to Isis and  go on a shooting spree.

=======================
Yeah, sure.
Let's let everyone take their guns into bars.
What could possibly go wrong?

You confuse people trained to carry a concealed weapon with simply letting any tom, dick, or harry, carry whatever they want.  No surprise in pushing that false narrative.     ::)

People get drunk in bars.
Even if they are trained in gun safety or whatever.
They can do a lot more harm if they are armed,.

A good and drunk guy with a gun should not be confused with a good guy with a gun.

Sure,They are immune to alcohol.
They have super powers,  like The Flash and Captain Marvel.

I realize you have a perverse ideological template to adhere to, which includes that any and all private gun owners are dangerous morons, especially those who "demand" that they be allowed to carry a firearm. 

The reality however literally "shoots" that down, in that in this country, with the thousands upon thousands of civilians who have been cleared to carry a concealed weapon, how come you don't hear of any of these folks going postal, and shooting up some location??  It's because the vast majority of these law abiding citizens are responsible, and recognize the respsonsibility that comes with owning and carrying a firearm. 

So while we can speculate that no one is immune from alcohol's pull, the person who's been deemed legal to carry a firearm is going to be the last one to ever get so reckless as to get stupid drunk.

It only takes on drunk with a gun to kill someone.
Your idea that people who have taken maybe four hours of instruction makes them Dudley Do-Right is moronic.

He should never have been allowed to be a gun owner.
That is the problem.
