        @asteris Bit more complicated. He also had bombs, explosives. I'm no defender of the NRA but let's be accurate. And it's two guys, not one.

        .@amyselwyn @curtiskj lockdown smaller radius would be smaller sans explosives but it's absurd any way you look at it. Also, other guy dead?

        @asteris I agree with @amyselwyn. Gunman would shut down a few blocks at most. Bomb threat(s) shuts down city to limit movement.

        @asteris Feel free to complain about how these guys apparently had semi/fully automatic rifles, because it's an important point @amyselwyn

        @curtiskj @amyselwyn read my prev (meta)tweet for clarification. But argument that actual terrorists would've gotten them anyway is invalid

        @curtiskj the US used to regulate strong crypto export. "When illegal, only outlaws.." argument breaks down when talking abt actual weapons

        @asteris More realistic, it is the threat of explosives that is shutting everything down. Guns don't help but wouldn't happen w/ just that.

        @asteris @davefleet reality check: the guy built bombs, I doubt him having a gun is the biggest concern here.

        @GShaneC @asteris Given that he's shot and killed a police officer, I might disagree.

        @davefleet @asteris he was also throwing explosives at the police officer too; last I checked, bombs are already banned.

        @davefleet @asteris no ones saying the lunatic should have either, I'm just pointing out that a ban isn't gonna stop guys like that.

        @asteris if you we're on lockdown, you'd probably feel safer with a registered weapon. #respectfully
