"Unfortunately, a certain amount of defense mode on the part of the Second Amendment is always necessary because those in power would absolutely prefer to have a disarmed public.  Whether you believe the official government is actually in control or are puppets of other sinister masters, the same rules apply.  All ruling entities, from kings to police states, fear a well-armed proletariat.  They often use atrocities like this as excuses to attempt to disarm lawful citizens."

The original purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to defend the govt, not overthrow it. That's what a militia is for. This simple fact is lost on the gun-worshipers.

....hey Man, If the Gubmint comes for my guns, If Obama keeps trying to take my guns...I need more than my .357, my glock 17, my .30-30...I need FIREPOWER to stop them black helicopters...

Yes I'm being sarcastic. but, I am a gun owner. I DO NOT think Uncle Sam is gearing up to "take my guns". (Sorry to say that Wayne Lapierre, you nut.)

All this government gun grabbing nonsense is just that, nonsense. It's just a bunch of BS constantly parroted by the NRA to raise tons and tons of money every month donated by paranoid gun owners milked by the NRA's propaganda machine.

It would be political suicide for any politician to even talk of such things. Now if the government ever DOES come for your guns, they will do it by driving a tank up your driveway and into your house....might as well use a BB gun against that.

Crazy is crazy, no matter how you slice it.

Lay the blame where you like... easy access to firearms, internet ammo sales, video games, media desensitization, mental defects...

What kind of animal shoots a babe in arms? Even in wartime there are standards... there are still examples of collateral damage, but...

Just another example of a failing/failed society. Pretty simple.

AURORA, CO -- A man who was at the Colorado movie theater where a dozen people were killed this morning, says he saw the gunman.

He says he thinks someone deliberately let the gunman inside once the movie started.

Here's what he told TV station KCNC this morning live on their newscast.

"As I was sitting down to get my seat, I noticed that a person came up to the front row, the front right, sat down, and as credits were going, it looked like he got a phone call. He went out toward the emergency exit doorway, which I thought was unusual to take a phone call. And it seemed like he probably pried it open, or probably did not let it latch all the way. As soon as the movie started, somebody came in, all black, gas mask, armor, and threw a gas can into the audience, and it went off, and then there were gunshots that took place."

Police arrested 24-year-old James Holmes of Aurora, Colorado, for the shootings.

At least 12 people were killed and 38 others wounded when the gunman opened fire during the midnight screening of the newest Batman film, "The Dark Knight Rises."
