Its irrational when it boils down to something that looks scary, sounds scary, and your personal opinion is that of "I don't see a need for it, so nobody else should need it". Just because I don't like war doesn't mean I hate on a military. People have to begin to understand that first and foremost MURDER is ILLEGAL and that did nothing to demotivate the individual, possession of firearms in the theater was against the rules, that did nothing to stop this, possession of a firearm on your person without a carry permit is ILLEGAL and did nothing to dissuade this person, so what makes ANYBODY think that increasing restrictions on firearms would have done anything to stop this? There are a multitude of ways this person could have carried out this crime, none other than firearms seems to create this aire of chaos amongst people, and it does rests squarely on a lack of understanding and education
