The answer is do nothing. These types of things are fairly isolated incidents, and the chances of someone like this getting past a handful of victims when someone is able to defend themselves is very low.
It's been noted that mass shootings like VT and the NE mall incident only happen when the government is getting ready to decide on gun control issues. It sounds a little too much like a conspiracy theory for my tastes, but it's hard to believe that it's all just coincidence.
Contemplating Mass Murder in Omaha Quote:
Incidents like the one in Omaha and those that preceded it are simply too damned convenient -- to the victim disarmament crowd -- for them to be accepted any more as merely the random work of individual psychotics.
There it is. I said it, and I'm glad.
More and more it appears to even the most neutral observer that, just when Congress, the state legislature, or even a city council is debating a new law that infringes the right of the people to keep and bear arms -- in this case it's the U.S. Supreme Court taking up the question -- some lunatic comes along, using whatever gun the liberals currently want most to put political pressure on, and kills a bunch of people.
It almost never fails.
I wrote about this phenomenon twenty years ago, myself, although I only half-believed it then. But after the all-too-convenient killings in Dunblane, Scotland that gave Parliament what it needed to outlaw all privately-owned guns in Britain, and after a similar atrocity in Tasmania produced similar legislative results in Australia, I stopped doubting.
Go to: The Manchurian Lobbyist--Revisited, by L. Neil Smith
How many more Robert Hawkins will be sacrificed -- along with their innocent victims -- until the enemies of freedom finally have their way? If that's too conspiratorial, if it sounds too weird or hysterical, remember what's at stake. It's equally hard believing there are people who see a positive value in the extermination of as many of their fellow human beings as possible. And yet each generation seems to produce enough of them to mess the world up for everybody else.
The Ottomans. Hitler. Stalin. Mao. Pol Pot.
Every great slaughter in history has been preceded by the mass disarmament of those who are to be slaughtered. Australia is ready for genocide now. So is Great Britain. Is America being softened up the same way? Would those evil, crazy, or corrupt enough to kill millions even hesitate to arrange something like what happened in Omaha this week?
