What would have happened, if Gabby's assistants had guns and knew how to use them?

Would there have been fewer victims?

Was there an opportunity to stop the shooter?

No.

The shooter should have been taken out of circulation a long time ago.

I was listening to the local talk radio station and they had a gun owner who said if he was there, he would have pulled his pistol and shot the gunman down.
I cringe when I hear people talk like this. If a person would have be stupid enough to pull his piece durning something like this, it could have been worse. Unless he is trained in how to handle it, he would have gotten “buck fever” and started shooting blindly, causing more deaths. The local PD would have showed up, see two men with pistols blasting away at each other and decide that it was a team of nutjobs and shoot them both.
Would have been better to try and tackle the guy or something like that.
Too many wanna be Rambos out there.

I hope Sarah Palin adopts the Israeli method of campaigning. All of her supporters are legal open carry. Of course in Israel a person can carry a fully automatic rifle.
