You know, it's possible that having many armed people around could have taken that asshole down while he had killed less people. It's also possible that more people would have died of random shots.
But, having many people carrying weapons all the time, concerns me. Because there will be cases where people fight over random stuff, and it's possible that someone will use a gun then.
I don't have any data to back this up. But I feel the deathtoll caused from having many people armed all the time would be higher than the amount of lives saved in specific cases like this one.
