To be clear: I do not think that a concealed weapon would prevent situations like the Aurora, CO theater. By the time you grab cover, assess the situation,

And that's where most people would fail. They could not properly assess the situation under stress, so they would likely fire at somebody else (especially if theses guys are ALSO armed!!! and therefore possible threats), and off goes the chain reaction leading to chaos and mayhem. More guns in the hands of "regular" people are no solution to the threat of crime, they are a threat on their own. It just doesn't work.
