True.

But I can counter your attempt at calling it a myth by providing examples of people with proper training taking down a gunman before he was able to injure/kill a bunch of people.

Including one incident that happened yesterday.

But I won't, because I think it is ridiculous to expect citizens to walk around with a gun. I do however think having armed cops at schools is a good idea.
