A few disjointed thoughts on some of the things mentioned already:

1) I'm not sure someone armed would have been able to do much. If he really did have a CS grenade, anyone who's ever experienced tear gas will tell you its hard to do much of anything when its attacking you.

2) They said that the AZ shooter was a tea party member too. The name thing might be coincidence, we will have to wait and see. At this point its all media speculation.

3) Some things to remember if you engage anyone about why this shouldn't lead to more gun control: The Netherlands have had very strict gun control for over 100 years....that didn't stop Brekevik(sp?) from murdering dozens. Violent crime went up in both England and Australia as more gun control laws were passed. If someone is honestly interested in reducing violent crime, evidence and history shows that gun control has the exact opposite effect.
The shooting and bombing that Breivik perpetrated was in Norway. I am not sure how long their gun controls have been in place.
