I’m sure you’ve heard of the 20 year old guy in Nebraska, who lost his job and his girlfriend so he decided to go to a busy mall and kill as many people as he could.

It’s legal in Nebraska to carry a handgun if you have a concealed permit. However, the mall had a gun free zone. No guns in the mall. Once again, this kind of policy only keeps the honest citizen from bringing a gun in. The maniac feels free to bring one in…and he did!

All gun control laws keep the honest citizen from defending himself and family. Gun control laws never stop the crook from having and using a gun.

I know you agree that people have the right to defend themselves with self defense products. Now is the time to get passionate about it. If you are on the fence about this, GET OFF IT! Let people know how you feel.

Here are the gory details of the Omaha Mall Shootings:

The gunman in the Omaha mall shootings had recently been fired from his job at a McDonald’s for allegedly stealing $17. Five more people were wounded 4 At least 10 dead in Omaha mall shooting.

Here is the details about the killer: Hawkins

Hawkins, fired on shoppers from a third-floor balcony of the Von Maur department store at the Westroads Mall shortly before 2 p. Hawkins, 19, was later found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound by police, who had sealed the mall after the shootings, officials said. Hawkins said in the note he loved his friends and family, but “he was a piece of s— all his life, and now he’ll be famous,” she told CNN.

Hawkins either was kicked out or left home some time ago, and moved in with Debora Maruca-Kovac and her husband, whose sons were friends with him, Maruca-Kovac said. State officials said Hawkins spent four years in a series of treatment centers, group homes and foster care after threatening to kill his stepmother in 2002.

The aftermath of Wednesday’s killings left some who knew Hawkins questioning if more should have been done. Four months later, a Nebraska court decided Hawkins’ problems were serious enough that he should be under state supervision and made him a ward of the state. Police believe Hawkins was using that AK-47 when he stormed off a third-floor elevator at the store and started shooting. About an hour before the shootings, Hawkins called Maruca-Kovac and told her he had written a suicide note, Maruca-Kovac said. Omaha Police Chief Thomas Warren said they recovered an SKS assault rifle believed to belong to Hawkins.

Police said that 19-year-old Robert Hawkins entered the store about six minutes before the shooting began. Police believe Hawkins stole the assault rifle, an AK-47, from his stepfather’s home, Warren said.
