I always hear the same old argument - If the public was armed this wouldn't have happened. Yet in this case, there was someone armed - a police officer trained to handle such situations. Even though there was an armed police officer present, the shooter shot and killed six people before he was shot dead?

So in other words... Having someone who is armed still results in innocent people being dead.
