Thread Name: BS: Shooting tragedies and guns
Subject: RE: BS: Shooting tragedies and guns
How many times in real life has an armed intruder, bent on mass murder, been taken out by an armed civilian (or even a police officer) before he could kill anybody?
I'll rephrase that. How many times does it even *appear* that a hero has prevented a mass killing by drawing down faster than the heat-packin' bad guy?
Or even managed to *cut short* a shooting spree by nailing the gunman when he wasn't looking?
Come on, guys. How many?
I want to know.
