Obviously, this is a tragic occurrance.
The whole situation will be a rally point for the anti-gun establishment. This is to be expected.
The one thing that I really find strange is that Arizona has always given me the impression of being a "carry-heavy" state. With that said, I was surprized that no one within the crowd of shoppers and viewers was armed. I carry when I go to the grocery store, so I assume that other licensed folks also arm themselves.
This sad story could have had a 2nd Amendment endorsement if a licensed goodguy would have ended the situation with 8 or 10 well-placed rounds in the attacker's head as soon as the first shot was fired.
