does arizona need less restrictive gun laws to prevent gun violence?

Given the locale, if he looked Hispanic he might not have gotten the first shot off.

Neither license nor classes required in Arizona. It is stupid here.

So according to Dakota, carrying a concealed weapon isn't for self protection, its some thing much much more. A concealed weapon is a magic talisman that gives you the courage to tackle any situation bare-handed.

Did anyone bother to ask the other brave folk who tackled the shooter what magic talismans they were carrying, swiss army knife, Livestrong wristband, car keys, anything?

You too would sell your mother for a 38 special if your neck, pardon the pun, was on the line. Heck, even a .22 is better than nothing. Until then, you can sit around the fireplace and pontificate.

Give up folks. Dakota is too dim to understand your point. It is just cruel to keep asking him to understand it.

Mockery is obviously not part of his vernacular.

I have come to find out that Zamudio is being held up as the Poster Boy for Responsible Ownership due to his NOT USING HIS WEAPON. So Dakota is not going to contadict what he is being told to think by Fox News and Geraldo and the other fine folks who control his puppet strings.

And yes, it appears it was a Magic Talisman. Which the guy came close to using on an innocent person who had retrieved the weapon after the shooter was disarmed. But he did NOT shoot the person so that makes him a saint!

Anyone waiting for you to be running toward the shooter with your purse flailing will be sorely disappointed. In a face off between a Glock and a purse Glock wins.
