Carrying a concealed weapon is one thing...driving around with an AK47 and several hand guns is something different.

En route to shoot your employer?
Do you also have machine guns at home?
I'm not into guns but do people use machine guns to hunt? Or at the shooting range? Is it like a sport or something?

This brings up an interesting point. I heard a guns right person say had people had their guns in the theater. they could have shot the shooter.

Ok so how exactly do I know that you carrying a gun into a place aren't that whack job shooter? I don't and frankly I really would assume you didn't carry a gun in a location I'm at. I don't feel safer when guns are around...

I am my own employer and I have no intention of shooting my employer...
An AK-47 that is comonly purchased in the US, or an AR-15 is NOT a machine gun...These are semi-automatic. One trigger pull, one round fired. Neither was what was used in Aurora. These guns are typically used for recreation at a range. Not for hunting. I have hunting weapons too... Most who have these kinds of weapons have had them for years and use them responsibly. When was the last time before Aurora that you heard of someone committing a crime with a semi-automatic rifle... It just isn't normally done. It is very rare and a one off event....

You would never even know it was there if someone with a concealed handgun was sitting right next to you and there is a good chance that you have been right next to many people carrying a loaded firearm.

Your evidence that he was "up to no good" is that he was in possesion of an AK-47, 4 handguns, and boxes of ammunition?

Explain.
