Date: 2012-07-24 02:41 pm (UTC)Am I a terrible person for wanting to shove Russell Pearce into a dark crowded theater filled with tear gas and put him up against a heavily armed, body-armor wearing assailant? Actually, scratch that -- there's no doubt in my mind he would have killed an innocent person. Even under the BEST conditions at a well-lit shooting range, hiting a moving target is very difficult for trained professionals. An armed amateur would have had no chance in that theatre.

At least in my somewhat sane little corner of the world. If I went some where that didn't have one of those signs I wouldn't go in. I know they don't stop the nut jobs, but I don't like the idea of people having guns in public places. Guns are for wars, gun ranges, and hunting. Not movie theaters, restaurants, bars, etc. :o

Date: 2012-07-25 08:07 pm (UTC)When I first moved here three years ago those signs freaked me out like you wouldn't believe. We didn't have them in Portland, because NOBODY CARRIED GUNS AROUND THERE. It was just a given that if you're going to the movies or the library or out for dinner, you aren't packing heat!
One of the first things I had to do after we arrived was take my daughter to the hospital and those "Guns Not Permitted" signs just about sent me running. Like, I'm now living in a place where people have to be TOLD they can't bring their semi-automatic assault rifle to the hospital? Yikes! ;D
