Gun rights and high profile shootings

[bricksandsparrows]

Hi Mas,

You have spoken a great deal about how the actions taken before, during, and immediately after a SD shooting will effect the individual in court. Looking back at all of your research, what are your thoughts on the way types of shootings effect the armed community as a whole.

We can see that with every shooting, gun rights are put in the spot light ( and usually misrepresented) but with SD shootings in particular, do you see irresponsible behavior on the part of the shooter threatening rights of the whole armed community?

Irresponsible cops reflect badly on all cops, bad doctors reflect badly on all physicians, and naturally, irresponsible gun people reflect badly on responsible gun people. The way of the world, I suppose.

best,
Mas
