Американские СМИ сообщают о росте продаж оружия на фоне инцидента в Колорадо.
Background checks for gun purchases spiked 41 percent in Colorado after 12 people were killed inside a suburban Denver movie theater, according to state data. In the four days after the July 20 shooting, dealers submitted 3,647 requests for state background checks required to buy a firearm, said Susan Medina, a spokeswoman for the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. That’s 41 percent more than the 2,583 requests during the same four days the prior week and a 38 percent increase over the 2,636 checks during the first Friday to Monday in July.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation declined to release data on background checks nationally since the Colorado shooting, said Stephen Fischer, a spokesman. State data and interviews elsewhere suggested increased sales.

Personally, I think sales are up because more Americans realize the police (any law enforcement group) can't protect them when needed. High-level private & government officials, like hypocritical Michael Bloomberg, have armed body guards. Simple folks like me do not. In America, I have a right to equal protection, but can't afford a bodyguard. Therefore I am my body guard.. The failure of the police to act in a preemptive manner is no fault of the police, because they are primarily crime scene investigators. Furthermore, they cannot be sued for failure to protect the people except in cases of gross negligence. In the seconds and minutes it takes for the police to respond to a 911 call thousands of citizens are hurt and killed. Who has your back? The answer for clear-thinking Americans is practically no one. Americans know and figure that it is better to be proactive and prepared to die than injured or killed cowering behind someone or something.
В свете последних инициатив наших законодателей необходимо, думаю, пристальнее изучить способы роста продаж.
