You think a teacher with a handgun would have stopped the slaughter,

Too funny. There would be another dead teacher.
A couple rounds in his general direction may have had him leaving the
school. Better that the kids
got killed?
If the shots miss, Harry is probably right. I would not want to be
face to face with a AR and only have a pistol. OTOH if you just come
up behind this guy and put one in the back of his head, you win that
fight. To that end, someone with tactical skills should identify the
best places to wait and have your armed people know where the best one
is based on where the shots are coming from.
Maybe we can scour the 7-11s and find some old Vietcong guys. They
were pretty good at ambushing guys with ARsÂ* ;-)
Question:
If you come face to face with a guy with an AR-15 intent on killing you
or anyone around you, would you rather be armed or disarmed?
I'd take armed.Â* If I miss I might be dead.
If I am not armed, I am certainly dead.
I dunno. I am reminded of many shootouts with cops in which supposedly
well-trained officers fire dozens or hundreds of shots, still might not
hit their target(s), and spray bullets everywhere. Now, imagine that
sort of shootout at a school filled with hundreds or even thousands of
students, and the "good guy" doing the shooting is a teacher with maybe
one-twentieth of the training of a cop. Now, imagine the autopsies...and
the resulting lawsuits.
