Was the venue a firearm free venue?
Very surprised there were no open or concealed carry good guys with a firearm to stop the attack.

Shirley, you can't be series? How is a personal sidearm going to do anything against a rifle in the upper window of an overlooking hotel?

in a small hotel room, you can have the long gun and I can have my pistols.
In a tight spot, the long gun is a disadvantage. This is why snipers carry pistols.
