This almost isn't news anymore. These "lone wolf" attacks are going to continue. How do you stop them? I can't even imagine the logistical nightmare behind that.
The problem is fanatical, murderous Muslims. Isn't the solution obvious? MURDER!

Yeah so Star is like one of the the most racist, bigoted, hateful people I've ever seen.
What this guy did was wrong, for whatever reason he did it, but damn. I don"t see him condemning cops for murdering innocent people on an almost daily basis. But a single guy "claims" he did this for Islam and all Muslims are immediately scum of the Earth that need to be purged.
It's always that scenario that one armed citizen will take down the armed bad guy.
What happens when there's more than one armed citizen (in a cinema, a shopping mall, a school...) & confusion & panic sets in as to who actually is the "bad guy"?

I've got my conceal carry license and am trying to get my blue card(what you need to do armed security in Georgia), but I'm black. I walk around with my gun all the time, but one of my biggest fears is being in a situation where I could stop someone, and I do, but then I get injured/killed by the authorities.
Gotta love how, in response to an imagined attack on Christianity, he has a go at multiple posters (all the people who had posted thus far and who he supposedly has on Ignore), an entire Religion (Islam), and a whole collection of less developed countries (the 3rd world "shit holes" as he calls them). Yet anyone who delivers even slight criticism of him or any of his beliefs is an "atheist troll" or a "Muslim-loving liberal".

Yeah that is a scary scenario.
And I hope you can see I'm being mature in asking but apart from working in armed security, why do you feel the need to walk around (assuming off-duty) with a loaded weapon?
I'm just imagining the scenario where you see something "bad" happening, your adrenaline kicks in, the notion of being the hero starts playing on your mind...the moment you pull out that gun only alleviates the situation from bad to worse.
Whether you pull the trigger or your biggest fear of cops mistaking you is going to be played out.
I mean in this scenario, wouldn't the wiser decision be reaching for your phone & calling the cops then reaching for your loaded weapon?
Its pretty much for personal protection. I've been robbed several timrs, and twice st gunpoint. I never look for trouble, but I'm prepared to flash it to get out of trouble and use it if absolutely necessary, like I'll die if I don't, or someone will get killed if I don't.
Calling the cops is always a good plan, hopefully you get a good response time and good responders. The only time I would pull (I think, no one can say for certain what they'll do, when until it happens) is in something like, a guy has a gun on someone and is going to kill them if they aren't stopped first. A situation where taking the time to call the cops helps no one at the moment. Basically a bad situation where if I don't help, help won't be there in time. And thankfully I've never been in one of those. Hope to never be.
People willing to explode themselves for fictional beings sure sound mentally ill to me.
