Bad guy with gun kills half-dozen before good guy with gun shows up

The obvious, but not often discussed canard (one of many) in Wayne LaPierre's logic (sociopathy):

A gunman holding hostages inside a South Florida apartment complex killed six people before being shot to death by a SWAT team that stormed the building early Saturday following an hours-long standoff, police said.

Sgt. Eddie Rodriguez told The Associated Press that police got a call around 6:30 p.m. Friday that shots had been fired in a building with dozens of apartments in Hialeah, just a few miles north of Miami.

Rodriguez said that when police arrived, they discovered an active shooter situation: “He’s inside the building, moving from floor to floor. Eventually he barricades himself in an apartment.”

A crisis team was able to briefly establish communication with the man. Rodriguez said negotiators and a SWAT team tried talking with him from the other side of the door of an apartment unit where he was holding two hostages.
Another victory for the Second Amendment.

The nutjob Pedro Vargas had bought his 9mm. handgun legally, and had a concealed weapons permit.

Thought only the good guys were able to get those.
