Most people don't know about the Clackamas Town Center shooting because it was quickly overshadowed by Sandy Hook. But it was a situation which could easily have ended up with dozens dead. Why didn't it get worse? Because a man with a concealed carry permit had the shooter covered for most of the time and the shooter decided it was unwise to keep firing.
Unfortunately, the truth is that when you outlaw guns, only outlaws have guns... and this is especially true in our schools.
Thanks for sharing. So many people, both in the US and abroad, have no idea why the 2nd Amendment is so important. (And yes, even assault rifles are included because the colonists had a tyrannical government to contend with - they wanted us to always be able to defend ourselves, even against a big government.)
