re: #262 Charles Johnson

I think we need to start getting the message out that this is the wrong thing to do. Because it is. This guy may have thought he was doing the right thing, but he wasn’t trained or prepared for what he was facing, and it got him killed.

The concealed weapon gave him a false sense of competence.

And it’s the romanticizing of guns such as we’re seeing here, i.e. talk of “honor” and “having balls” that make people carrying guns are going to be heroes. It defines the fun culture.
