I don't open or conceal carry. Open carry is a little weird to me but do support conceal carry with appropriate controls etc.

There wasn't a wild wild west shoot out or anything so that's something for citizens being responsible with weapons under a dire situation.

The Latest: Police say shoppers drew guns after shooting - ABC News

Colorado police investigating a shooting at a suburban Denver Walmart say they had to rule out customers who drew weapons as suspects after a gunman opened fire inside the store. Three people died.

Thornton police spokesman Victor Avila said Thursday that investigators reviewed store surveillance footage Wednesday night and saw "a few" people inside the store who drew weapons in response to the gunfire.

Avila did not know if any of them were security guards employed by the store.

Avila said officers watched the footage and ruled out each person out as a potential shooter before releasing statements identifying the lone shooter.

He says the customers who pulled out guns did not slow officers' response to the crime scene.

Scott Ostrem was arrested Thursday, about 14 hours after the shooting.

Maybe ... probably.

Still feels good that there are responsible gun owners willing to draw and protect themselves and others, and not go to the extreme.
