Totally, all 13 of them should of huddled and chose one of them to take a potentially dangerous peruptator down. Hopefully he was kind of enough not to shoot before they made their decision. (Yes I know he didn't have a gun at that point, but that is known in hindsight is irrelevant in the heat of the moment). Instead they followed their training and emptied their mags, they all get to go home to their kids and stopped a potentially dangerous perputator who showed no regard for life by shooting out of his car from kiiling them, an innocent bystander, taking someone hostage...

What is your better idea?
