Where else would they shot their guns?

Schools is one side of the coin. Do pupils go there? Seems very empty on the video.

I think you meant the YouBaldy police.

I've seen lots of videos of good guys without guns saving people from bad guys with guns, but I've never seen a "good guy" with a gun do jack shit.

[–] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There was a case a few years ago where a good guy with a gun stopped a shooter. The bad guy apparently shot and killed a cop, and reportedly wanted to shoot other cops. The good guy shot & killed the bad guy.

Then the cops showed up and killed the good guy with the gun.

It happens occasionally, but it's pretty rare. I heard a story some time back of a gunman who drove up on a birthday party or something, and a bystander shot them.

The rate is far lower than the rate of gun accidents, or even gun homicides though. It's not an argument for lax gun laws. It just is an occasional side effect that can't and shouldn't be counted on.

I think John Oliver did a deep dive and found in the history of shootings, a small handful were stopped by "a good guy with a gun" while a significant number beyond that were stopped by people without guns.

He went further: the good guy with a gun often were used for disciplinary measures (read: send black students to the school resource officer) instead of guarding the place. Not only that, but in school shootings were more violent where there was good guy with a gun.

To be fair, once. We've seen it once. In all the years of mass shootings. That Texas church where the guy shot the killer from like 25m away while he was moving.

Jesus YouTube tried to delete this from history. Sorry about the Reddit link.

I heard a story of someone who was at a gun show and some geniuses thought it would be a good idea to try and grab a bunch of rifles and just run for the doors, and of course about a dozen people drew down on them.

But then, that's like, proliferated guns at a gun proliferation party preventing guns from being proliferated by a tiny degree more than they would have otherwise, so... that kind of feels like a net neutral, overall.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the guy who shot Charlie Kirk lol. You guys have more class than I do, that's for sure.

School administrators doing more for public safety than fucking police would.

Great job focusing on the gun (grabbing that arm) and then incapacitation. Lucky this ended this way.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

The police wont endanger themselves to save others. They argue in court that they are only there to do paperwork, and that "protect and serve" was just marketing, and was never a promise to do either. Useless bullies. They use their monopoly on the use of force to protect themselves, and thats it.

This guy vs the entire Uvalde police force

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 61 points 1 month ago

That principal is a serious hero, and very lucky. Great pin and control on the weapon, he put all his weight into it.

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 47 points 1 month ago

American hero right there. Those families will never forget what he did for them.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 44 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is there a way to vote for this principal for mayor?

His campaign tagline could be "The principal with principles!".

[–] favoredponcho@lemmy.zip 55 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

He did get crowned prom king this year by his students. It might be hard to see, but he did take a bullet in this altercation.

[–] Pman@lemmy.org 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (6 children)

Really? That's awesome. Can you provide a link I can't find that part of the story as it was 3 days ago.

[–] NABDad@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Really? That's awesome.

How I read your reply initially.

The gunman really had no problem killing the principal when he ran towards him. Just pointed the gun casually his way.

Americans...

A country that produces mental health issues... And they give them guns. And Americans defend this like it's a normal fact of life.

David Bowie made a whole song about that.

JFC, dude came boiling out of a shadow on the wall.

I had to watch it three times before I saw what the camera angle showed as a barely-there nook in the wall.

This is what heroes do. They run towards the danger, not away.

Props to this principal. He's got more stones on him than half the cops in America.

Science and medical had to rush the guy before security even joined the fight.

[–] DarkSurferZA@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Would you look at that, yet another "good guy with a gun" came in to stop the bad guy with a gun...

Fucking sad that the people who routinely save lives in these situations are just normal people risking their own lives, and then you have some assholes advocating for more guns.

Sadder still, is the assholes with the guns are cops too chicken and end up camping outside the school's, or bullying children in the hopes of making everyone feel as unloved as they were when they were kids.
