You should be a writer for newsbusters, they lie all the time for responses and ignorant comments

You know zero about people on here, yet you'll tell us smugly that you know a gun cannot make a difference. Funny how it makes a difference for the criminal, though, isn't it?
Speaking personally, I have extensive military training in the use of firearms and don't get my impression of them and the good they can do from prime-time television, as you quite possibly do.
I am not just cogitating, there have been plenty of trained professionals who chose not to use their guns in difficult situations for the safety of others. You can train all you want but this is a once in a lifetime situation and no one is really prepared, the bad guys will always have the advantage of surprise.

This is why it pays to be prepared and be observant everywhere you go.
Speculation on your part adds nothing to this.
