"The only thing that will stop a bad guy with a gun is a GOOD guy with a gun." -Wayne LaPierre
Well, apparently there WAS an armed deputy at MSD High School while Cruz was murdering kids...AND HE DIDN'T EVEN GO INSIDE.

Wayne LaPierre's proverbial 'good guy with a gun' failed to stop the bad guy with the gun. And you know what? I DON'T BLAME HIM! If I were armed with pop gun, I wouldn't want to go in and face a suicidal psychopath with an assault rifle and hundreds of rounds of high velocity ammunition either.
I have news for you. 'Hank' from Breaking Bad is a FICTIONAL character. No minimum-wage rent-a-cop is going to stand up to a machine gun! And if he won't, NEITHER WILL A TEACHER. These gun-fetish idiots have really perfected cognitive dissonance to a science.

(12,412 posts)Some people, like LaPierre, think they are somehow bigger and better just because they have a gun. They know people are afraid and threatened by others with a gun and they relish this empowerment.
Hole in the argument is that "bad guy with guns" don't give a shit.
LaPierre and crowd only want to have the sense of superiority they get and would in all likelihood shit their pants before they could draw their gun.
