In fact (thought I mentioned this up-thread, or in another thread): of all the mass shootings that have occurred in the US over the past few years, NONE of them were stopped by a lawfully-carrying citizen defending himself or his community against the shooter.

None.

One shooter was stopped but not until he killed a whole bunch of people in the church, and left the church and tried to run away.

Almost doesn't count.
The mainstream media rarely publishes news of lawful gun owners stopping all sorts of crimes from murder down to shop lifting. That is why we "rarely ever hear" about it. It literally happens nearly every day somewhere in the USA.
