While it is true in certain situations a gun owner could save the day, this is not one of them. Unless the gun owner is a very experienced police officer or soldier, who has been in combat situations, there is almost no way he would have been able to keep his cool, and patiently wait for an opportunity to kill the man. He would either ran away or start shooting at the man immediately, not knowing he had body armor and being in a dark room full of tear gas. Regardless hopefully this tragedy is not something that crazy people decide to copy. |
So what you are saying is we should completely ban guns? Because you realize that this person would have still went out, bought 3 guns (in this case, simply illegally), and still shot everybody up. Making guns illegal doesn't stop people who are going to commit a crime from purchasing guns illegally.
Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
