[quote=Rodsteal;37410]I think it is interesting that the guy who shot the mall shooter in Utah back in February of 2007 was an off duty cop with a concealed weapon. He happened to be there eating at a restaurant when he heard the shots. What’s more interesting is I had to go to the Utah paper to get that information.

It would be great if the media would mention that the guy who prevented more people from dying that day had a concealed weapon rather than talking about what type of gun this other monster with no soul had. All this does is add fuel to a fire of anti-gun loving people who feel guns are the problem when the real issue is education.
*************************

That Utah mall had a posted sign outside that did not allow CCWs..... I have eaten there and my brother-in-law lives in SLC. He has a CCW, but abides by the law as posted. So in effect, it was another "gun free" zone that was not exactly gun free by the perp and just glad the off duty LEO was there.

The Omaha mall also had signs posted as "no CCW" allowed. That mass shooter/suicider also didn't abide by this rule. We never really hear about the "no CCW" signs in the media.
