Concealed carrier takes down shooter at South Carolina nightclub

I see this as what SHOULD have happened in Orlando.
South Carolina passed a law in 2014 that allows people holding concealed weapon permits to carry guns inside establishments that serve alcohol.

Funny this never made the news. CHL stops mass shooting at nightclub.

Did Bill Clinton really say that if a CHL had been at the club in Orlando and fired back, he could hit a bystander by accident?

Yep, never do you see news about the number of times a CHL holder protects himself or others in the MSM news yet we all know it happens frequently. Antis always want to trumpet the fact that we would probably shoot innicents rather than the BG :grumble

It would defeat their narrative if the MSM were to cover that a situation like Orlando was prevented by a licensed carrier.

Even more important was that the CHL carrier could legally carry at a place that served alcohol.

So per B. Clinton it's better to have many people slaughtered than for an armed citizen to try to take down the terrorist?

Yes, there's a risk innocents could get hit by the citizen trying to prevent the slaughter, but there's definitely going to be many dead people if a terrorist is allowed to mow down people.

So, what sort of illogic is he using or is he still smoking that stuff he doesn't inhale?
