I also saw him in an interview and thought he was very level headed. He was asked why he didn’t shoot and his response was actually that the older lady knocked the gun out of the shooter’s hand. Someone else hit him with a chair and knocked him down and when he got closer to help an older man had picked up the gun and was holding it.
He said he was pretty sure that they guy on the ground was the shooter but not 100% since a man standing was holding the weapon. Someone yelled at him to help hold the guy down and that is what he did.
It was clear to me that he didn’t shoot because he wasn’t 100% positive who to shoot but being armed made him confident to intervene and help.
Sounds like every gun owner I personally know. Smart, well trained and responsible.
Trained gun owners know they aren’t police, aren’t protected like police, and don’t want to be police. we carry to protect ourselves and our loved ones. If others choose to go unarmed as we aren’t cops and don’t ‘play cops’ we aren’t looking to go around saving everyone else. We don’t look for fights and don’t become willing participants when we aren’t threatened ourselves. It’s a lot easier to get involved if you are in ‘stand you ground’ states, however.
