I've been concerned that the copycat attacks were imminent.

Probably because there are always slow moving targets there.

Honest question. Why would this be different if he doesn't pledge allegiance to a Terrorist group?

The issue for me is how do we make ourselves safe from anybody.

I guess we will find out if the concealed carry argument that a shooter will be stopped quickly with armed citizens holds any water. I can't think of a place more likely to be well armed than a Wal-Mart in Amarillo Texas. Here's hoping it is nipped in the bud and only the bad guy dies.
