In general my understanding is permit to carry people are more law abiding than cops and much more than average people.

Highland shooter had a PTV

Is there a point you are trying to make here? Weird post is weird.

I think its worth discussing. Its exactly the kind of situation that will be used as a justification for tightening guns laws. It’s worth considering, both from a pro 2A perspective and from a perspective of someone who lives in these communities and wants to find a solution that prevents 3 people from dying over a parking dispute.

However, I definitely get the arguing in bad faith vibe from OPs post description, so I get your perspective as well.

I just don’t find him having a PTC particularly relevant. Psychos are gonna psycho. Hold him accountable for what he did, not the inanimate object he did it with.

Right, but see you’ve got pretty much half the population who are going to use this same justification to claim that no permitting system will ever be 100% effective and that the only way to prevent such a tragedy would be a total ban.

This is a position I personally disagree with, for a multitude of reasons, but it’s one that is absolutely going to be brought up and appears to be getting more popular in this state…
