Naturally, such examples will be rare, partly because mass shootings are rare, partly because many mass shootings happen in supposedly gun-free zones (such as schools, universities, or private property posted with a no-guns sign) in which gun carrying isnt allowed, and partly for other reasons. Add to this the reality that getting a concealed carry permit in some areas of our nation is next to impossible, and it's spitting in the face of reality to try to do a fair study on the ability of concealed carry to actually make a difference.
If people in the office yesterday had been armed, this shooter would have faced opposition. I defy anyone to explain how these people were safer without guns.

Donutman, the liberal idea so often is to create this little cloistered peacenik utopia, bereft of any possibility of hazard, let alone the need to think about it. Which often seems to be perking along well until it gets visited by the real world.
