Why is it that ALL -- and I mean ALL -- conservative talk show scenarios (or articles like this one) assume that a potential showdown 'tween a shooter & a permit loaded-weapon carriers would come down to a one-on-one Old West style shootout?

Ridiculous.

It'd be just as likely that in some places, you could have...
...one shooter & 2-4 permit loaded-weapon carriers

Or you might have -- like with Columbine...
...two shooters...
...and multiple permit loaded-weapon carriers...

Add to that a dark theater with tear gas going off...

And you could easily get two guys with permits shooting @ each other -- because they might assume two shooters...

People utterly fail to think thru a multiple-weapons & multiple carriers scenario where there's poor vision and mass confusion.

As opposed to just sitting there getting shot at? I'll take the multiple carrier scenario.

Thanks for playing....

Or maybe plain clothes police would be shot at by uniformed police. Then sherrifs and state patrol would have imposters dressed like them and all shooting at each other and at the end everyone in the world is killed except the joker. /s
