I disagree with the conclusion here, a gun in this situation would most like have been totally worthless or at worst gotten you killed. There is no way in the mass confusion and rush of people running for the exit that you could have gotten off a clear shot without the danger of hitting some innocent bystander. Also, the dude was wearing a Kevlar vest so unless your packing armor penetrating bullets in your concealed carry gun it would not have made that much of a difference. Sure it might have distracted him but I’ll bet that he was so hopped up on adrenalin that it wouldn’t have slowed him down at all.
If guns had been in the hands of citizens, the killer wouldn’t have gone there in the first place.
This kind of slaughter is the result of the mind of a sociopath who is in most if not all cases severely narcissistic.
They don’t like failure. Armed citizens would have prevented this.
Oh you were there huh?
And 115 grain +p+ 9mm at 14000fps may pierce body armor lvl III and lower grades.
