Was the good guy with the gun really a good guy, or was this just another AR-15 murder spree?

62. The discussion

is mostly over when the kindergarten names come out, but maybe that was your intention?
No one I have ever met wants to "attend a mother fucking shoot out", and that includes myself. But I'm also not going to allow myself to die while wishing just so I can avoid having someone call me a gun humper.

The "hero" as you referred to him, shot 10 rounds, not 20, which was probably the capacity of his handgun. And there was no "spraying" either. This kid took down a gunman at an estimated 40-50 YARDS (according to police analysis of the video) with a relatively cheap defensive handgun that is not known for high accuracy. That is not spraying, that is a very well placed shot, and extremely difficult to do, especially under that level of stress.
And had you read my comments here, you would be able to note that I specifically stated that I have never considered having to carry a defensive weapon to be any sort of solution to the overall problem, it is only a symptom and reaction to the existing threats.
And finally, for your information, I've never humped a gun nor had any desire to. They are not pleasant nor comfortable to carry around all of the time either. There is nothing fun about it, and it comes with great personal and legal risks. It is a tool. The defensive firearm is just that, it's the last thing you try right before someone tries to kill you and no other options are left. Even the 22 year-old who did this knew that when he was pinned down in a food court getting shot at with a rifle.
