In the gun loon world, a good guy with a gun stopped the carnage (well, it was a good guy and gal with a gun by committed suicide, but that's beside the point). T
he reality is this from the Daily Kos:
Wilcox, 31, was near the cash registers when he saw events
unfolding. He was armed with gun of his own, and told a friend he was
going to do something.
Joseph thought he was sneaking up on Jerad Miller:
It was at that point, instead of running, Wilcox approached Jerad Miller from behind.
It didn't work out the way Joseph thought it would:
As he moved to confront Jerad Miller, Wilcox passed Amanda,
not realizing the two were together. She slipped behind Wilcox and shot
him at close range.
Now, I'm sure the proponents of concealed and/or open carry here (and
elsewhere) will argue that he should have known better, that he should
have done more training, that he lacked "situational awareness," that...
Well, you get the point.
