Look. We're not going to agree on this and we're both welcome to our opinions.

Yes, generally speaking, you as everybody else have a 100% chance to die. What's your point again?

When someone can kill 17 and injured 22 with a Big Mac, then we'll talk. Kinda seems like folks could tell the difference between the two

Physics, booze, and 1 drunk won that night.
I didnt, and dont, hold Ford accountable with the logic of nobody needs an Excursion capable of high speed.
I didn't hold VW accountable for making the GTI (a compact hatchback) incapable of protecting the passengers...
Nor do I hold contempt for Budweiser or hold them accountable.
That drunk on the other hand...

With a gunman, if you yourself are armed you have a chance to defend yourself.

Astonishing the attitude of this country has gone from land of the free home of brave, to land of the feeble, home of the nanny state advocates...
That wasn't the case with the Las Vegas shooting. No one armed could have defended themselves. And it could very well happen again.

Have the media keep publishing the tactics and weapons used to serve as a study guide for future reference, yeah probably...
(Yes I'm advocating regulations/restrictions of the 1st amendment as Florida's 2nd 4th and 5th Amendments have been violated in vain of a tragedy)
