Since my first post on this thread, I found out that the Mall in question banned all guns from its premises and had many signs posted to remind shoppers of this ban. Obviously, this did not deter the perp. Only we law-abiding citizens pay attention to these things.
Thing is hon, if everyone were like you there would not be a problem. In fact, there would be no need to carry concealed weapons. But there are lots of loonies out there, and I don't mean the Canadian dollar, and too many guns. All my guns are legal too. But, according to our laws, I am not allowed to carry a handgun. This is not a problem, because there is no need in my community. In Kingston the police carry handguns, and there are lots of weapons at CFB/BFC Kingston, but citizens walk around unarmed, and are quite content to do so.
