One Real Lesson on Gun Control

Here's one lesson on gun control we can take from this event.

That's what happens when you run with a firearm to a scene of bloody havoc. In the chaos and pressure of the moment, you can shoot the wrong person. Or, by drawing your weapon, you can become the wrong person, a hero mistaken for a second gunman by another would-be hero with a gun. Bang, you're dead. Or worse, bang bang bang bang bang: a firefight among several armed, confused, and innocent people in a crowd.

It happens even among trained soldiers. Among civilians, the risk is that much greater. Sometimes, only the outlaws should be the one with guns.
