Why isn't this the best time?

Fear and emotion can be a double-edged sword. Do you pick a time when there is less of a perceived threat to schools and classrooms? Don't you think he would come off as more of a paranoid kook and nut in a closer to normal climate?

And everyone keeps on commenting that he should have had a CCW/LTC, but how realistic was it for him to acquire one? Is it just as difficult to get in his county as it is in mine (Alameda County)? If so what are his options other than to remain unarmed as so many of you seem to support?

I get everyones' opinions on why he shouldn't have been carrying (broke the law and school policy), but the judgmental tone reeks of an anti civil rights perspective on guns.
