Exactly right. And most likely before the cops could show up to do the
deed. And most likely saving (my and) other lives in the process.
Exactly right.
The interesting thing is, most of these random shootings do not occur in
places where the perp is likely to face opposition. They have the
foresight to select a soft target, and when it is likely the target will
not be soft, the perps either don't do the deed, or go somewhere
easier. So deterrence works, and self-protection works.
I understand that some people just can't grasp or accept the realities
involved. Even in places where the gun laws are stringent, wackos find
a way, either with a gun or something else. France and the Charlie Hebdo
business comes to mind, even the cop did not have a weapon to defend
himself and the people he was "guarding." You have the right to your
beliefs and I respect that though I disagree and find them puzzling when
the facts mitigate against them. But, YMMV.

If some dude pulled that sort of thing at a mall in SC or TX or most

And he would not be using an automatic weapon, nor a semi-automatic
for long.

But that just proves my point, does it not?
You would shoot him so once again, someone gets shot.
