If Denny had his gun with him he would be alive today and one terrorist would be dead.

There IS a certain irony in young Mr. Stong losing his life to someone who was abusing a right that Stong supported, but I suspect that (if asked) Stong would have said that he understood and accepted the risk that some folks would likely abuse that right.

It is rather a definitive element of true "freedom."

It's abuse, there's no irony here.

It's also ironic that he fell victim to what their gun control measures were designed to avoid. Even more ironic, that if there were no gun control measures he could have probably had a gun himself and had a chance to, at least, protect himself.

Serious question, was he not able to legally own/carry a firearm in Boulder?

You have to be 21 in most states, so probably not.

ETA And he was also an employee, so almost certainly not, even if he was 21 and had a concealed carry permit.

Had he been armed, maybe there would only be 1 dead.. The suspect.

They have petty little child minds. Of course it's deliberate.

They did bios on all the victims, and his ended with this: "A post on Stong's page from earlier this month asks for donations to a gun rights foundation."

They're happy he's dead. It's obvious from that last sentence. It's their way of saying "he deserved it".

Republicans need to nut up and defund NPR, period.

This is one of the no-brainer acts Republicans could take and not lose a single vote.

If I want classical music and sub-90 IQ liberal commentary, I can get it for less than $10 billion a year or whatever NPR costs to operate.

One of the victims is said to be the father of a local NPR producer, too.

Bet if the father had a do-over, he'd have taught his kid the dangers if importing Muslims.
