A good reason to stay armed and aware :-)

What a fantasy world you live in!

Aware? Of course one should stay aware, but it wouldn't have helped save those killed in Paris, nor most anyone else killed in mass shootings most anywhere else.

Armed? Fantasy, pure and simple. I have yet to read of a single instance of a "legally" armed person thwarting, or ending, a mass murdering spree. And even if the NRA can find an instance of two, it would still only be a fraction of 1 percent of the hundreds of mass shootings that have occurred.

God forbid it ever happens, but if you are ever involved in such a scenario as in Paris, a commentator, in the aftermath, will likely stand over your bullet-riddled body, and intone as to why a legally-armed man never even pulled his gun.
