Your posture doesn't hold water. They were all armed and yet did nothing. How do you think the average Joe citizen would have done any better in a situation like this? How about the "whack job" in the restaurant, as you've described, do you think an average Joe citizen would have taken him out? It's doubtful. You can't get into the two-hand, off-hand position when you're shaking like a leaf on a tree.

So, because in a certain horrific incident, no one responded, that means no one will ever respond?
Someone responded in the Southerland Springs Church shooting (2107).
Someone responded in the Greenwood Park Mall shooting (2022)
Just to name a few...
