I think its too early to tell. According to the news last night, the recent shootings may have involved with someone who knew the victims.

I would just like to add that these are the times that law abiding citizens really need to be 100% when carrying. Concealed or open, these shootings will no doubt get blamed on big bad guns at some point. This is the time to show the people that we are responsible with our firearms, and that we are law abiding citizens.

I hope it doesnt happen, but these shootings will bring up the firearm laws in Iowa.

Please be safe out there. Carry on.

Yeah, it gets ridiculous, I'm not too worried though, half a block from my house (I was out of town, luckily) there was a shootout that took place centered around an intersection: twenty-one (I believe) shots fired, and not a single hit. Good to know the thugs couldn't hit the broadside of a barn.

Maybe the problem would begin to resolve itself if combat marksmanship training were offered?
