Thanks for making my point: the would-be assassin needed to get close, went for a lethal head shot, but his gun failed (or he failed to load/use it properly). Having failed and being on stage in front of everyone he was easily overpowered and detained.
I’m sure that’s a relief to politicians and public personalities everywhere because none of the people attracted to them ever get close enough to do such a thing.
BTW since you live right there in Newtown hows about you drive over to the school and take a picture of the front door and the window where the glass is broken, and post it here???
