According the article he was about to actively shoot. So no I don’t think this is a case where good guy with gun cause more damage. A rifle being fired into a large crowd would absolutely have caused more damage. Again I don’t understand your point.
The point is probably that only bringing lethal ordinance to a large and crowded environment as a “peacekeeping force”, you’re liable to end of with unnecessary casualties.
The problem isn’t that they reacted with all they had in the situation, the problem is that’s all they went into the situation with.
I guess I just don’t understand how many of us are supposed to die so you feel comfortable. What’s the number? What’s the exact number of us that are allowed to be murdered by right wing nut jobs for you to feel comfortable? They’ve been making threats for weeks. We knew this was a possibility. Some people came prepared and were able to stop a big greater tragedy from happening, yet you’re mad that more of us weren’t mowed down. It’s ridiculous.
What a great straw man you’ve created to argue against.
I’m not angry that someone was stopped from killing lots of people, I’m quite grateful for that in fact. What I’m questioning is why an innocent bystander had to die to prevent it. Why does that not enrage you? Why are you happy to trade one life for others? Is death only a statistical problem for you?

You claim it’s a straw man and then you immediately concede it’s correct. That’s quite fascinating.
