And the magical assault weapons ban and limiting magazines to 10 rounds will fix that for sure. OK....you know weapons and their use....let's assume you choose a NO CONCEALED WEAPONS setting like a school or theater. Let's assume it takes 10 minutes for an armed response. How many shots could you get off with a 9mm Glock pistol with a 10 round magazine as opposed to 20 round magazines in an assault rifle. I maintain that in a theater of perhaps 150 people.......the Colorado shooter would have been confronted with at least 3 armed responses.......probably one within 15 sec after he fired his first shot.
