Hello Bob,

>JM>Or one armed civilian with the training to properly handle
>JM>a firearm.

>BK>With all the guns in this society, why wasn't there even one
>BK>person with a concealed carry permit and a handgun?

>JM>Don't know

>LL>Moviegoers are not allowed to bring weapons into a theater.
>LL>Nor should they be allowed to do so.

BK>It's going to the point where it will be not only allowed, but
BK>necessary.

I have a sword.  Kinda rusty, from the civil war era, but
still in one piece.

>BK>Or was there and he was busy running and hiding?

>JM>Could have been but I doubt it.

>LL>You cannot expect cops/security to present at every theater
>LL>in America, most especially during midnight movies.

BK>Why not?

Movie theaters are considered as being among the safest places
to be for an outing.  Or used to be...

>JM>Time for the majority of those Colorado people to,
>JM>as they say, put your big girl panties on and get over it.

>BK>Oh what tought talk. Until you have been there you don't know.

>JM>You saying I've never had a personal tragedy or experienced grief?

>LL>Not the kind of grief that some others have suffered.  For
>LL>example, one of my friends (now deceased) was shot in the
>LL>head in Vietnam. He spent the next two and a half years in
>LL>hospitals, most of that time in a coma.  He spent the rest
>LL>of his life in constant pain, which is to say almost forty
>LL>years.  The amount of money spent by our government to have
>LL>kept him alive all those years should not be an issue.  Nor
>LL>should the amount of money spent to keep any of our other
>LL>citizens (whether veterans or scientists or teachers or
>LL>even homeless bums) alive be an issue.

>LL>The right to life is a RIGHT, not a privilege.

BK>Unless it costs Romneyites some money, then it becomes a burden.

Republican candidates are getting more than their fair share
of equal time.  How so?  By making strange comments, mostly about
women, such as "legitimate rape" and "illegitimate rape" - as if
there was a difference.  And then there is the "personhood" stuff
that Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney are promoting, which both want to
include as an amendment to the US Constitution.
