There are "almost no massacres stopped because someone had a gun" because guns are rare in general.  Usually when said perpetrator kills themselves its because they are confrotned with... a gun.

Aside from which, talk to stickball, he could provide you with some pretty large datapoints involving guns, gunlaws and guncrime.

That gun you mentioned being a police officer or some other, well trained, official. Not some random guy with a gun, probably beacuse the average untrained person shits their pants and runs the hell away, gun or no.

I'm sure it has happened for a random gun-wielding citizen to stop a massacre, but I certainly cannot remember such a case and I do not believe this is due to selective memory on my part...

Unfortunately I remember many cases where the killing spree only ended due to police intervention, including the one I mentioned earlier which happened at a military installation!

You aren't alowed to have guns inside a military installation.
