I know it has happened. But it's a statistical anomaly when it does.

In the last 16 hours, the shooters were both stopped by police.

Note: the police aren't the "good guy with a gun" they are the police. They would have a gun anyway. The good guy with a gun is the average citizen.

Enact reasonable gun control and the cost of guns that are used in mass shootings increases. To the point the mentally unstable can't afford them.

Now you're left with the domestic terrorists. Having a database of guns would help the FBI, ATF, etc investigate and keep ahead of terrorist groups.

re there stats on how many mass shootings were stopped by the average joe who had a gun?
The crazy thing is that the guy in Ohio killed 9 people and injured another 20+ in less than a minute. Even if it was an average citizen who stopped him, a massive amount of damage was already done.
At this point, it seems like it would be a huge victory to even limit the number of shots magazines/clips can have.
