This is why mass shootings happen in gun free or gun controlled zones like colleges, malls, schools etc. ....because the bad guys have easy pickings..and they know it.
Try to place your focus on the bad guys..

Except that isn't what happened at all - the shooter was subdued by people who tackled him as he was reloading, more bullets in a confusing situation, particularly when the people who are shooting them have varying levels of actual accuracy is not a good idea.
Mass shootings happen in common areas because there are lots of people there thus allowing for mass shootings to occur.
You aren't advocating for people to carry guns in schools are you?
