A Question Related to the Utah Mall Shooting

[wheresmybacon]

you guys play too many FPS's. the fact that you don't know wtf is going on notwithstanding, shooting a pistol from distance, amidst chaos, against a guy with a rifle...good luck with that.

i know you guys are all crack shots though so it shouldn't be a problem.

IIRC, don't CCW holders have a legal obligation to protect others in some states?

Nope.

Some people have moral obligations, but that's it.

Some people are actually trained to use the weapon they are carrying, and continue that training daily/weekly.

I never knew someone else killed him. I thought he just committed suicide or something like most teenage killers.

I'd use Knockdown followed by Power Attack with my +3 Dwarven Waraxe of Firey Burst.

Yep. I shoot nearly every day, at my house. One of the benefits of living in the country - having my own rifle and pistol range.

I guess a person that was there at the time shot some video while it was all going down, and its going to be on the new in 5 or so minutes.

I really dont know what I would do. If I didnt have a weapon of my own, I definitely would not have attacked though.

Wow, saw the video. Very sad. Talked about some of the victims. One that stuck out was one that was buying a wedding ring with her husband. Husband left while she walked around the mall, next thing the guy knows, hes getting a call that shes dead.

Shooter was an immigrant. Bosnian, I believe. Was also Muslim.
