Both terrorists attacks, nemourios people killed in clubs, both no gun areas.
You're right. In America the armed civilian could have been outside the club though. Again unlikely, but it certainly could happen here.

and ther are still gun owners here that think we shouldnt be allowed to carry guns in bars....

gun free zones get more people killed .
make a .08 law like driving if you want for ccw but gun free zones are not the answer...
and there are still gun owners here that think we shouldnt be allowed to carry guns in bars....
As I understand it,if I get an alchohol related driving violation,I lose my CCW,whether I am carrying or not.
As I should,because it demonstrates I cannot be trusted to be responsible with alchohol.
I think most folks,upon receiving their CCW,do a little introspection."This is serious.It comes with responsibilities" And assume a code of behavior.
We say ,to the offered drink"Thank you for the offer,but I'm driving"
We tend to be more conscious of courtesy.
There is something to "An armed society is a polite society" and "Where guns are outlawed,only outlaws have guns"
In any case,I just heard on my radio the number of CCW applications has doubled this year.CBI reports 31,900 applications in the first five months this year in CO.
My local sheriff went "shall issue" after 9-11.There are a lot of permit holders here.Its quite peaceful.The quaking nannies predicting wild west shootouts were wrong.

I have to respectfully disagree with this in the sense that the vast majority of gun owners in America are safe, responsible, lawful and civilized yet we are losing our rights every day. Remember we are being punished by the actions of a few criminals. We can only keep, what’s left of, our rights if we fight against any more gun control laws. We are way past the point of legislating personal accountability.We can only keep our RTKBA if the vast majority of us maintain safe,responsible,lawful,civilized behavior.
Well said Cosmodragoon...That said, we need to be sure that steadfast preservation of the right itself is part of the package. So please think twice about the "as I should" because it's still gun control. It's still a cut from the right. It's still part of a registration and licensing scheme. It's still saying "thank God we have this bit of gun control".
