After reading the article... It turns out the "off duty office" was unable to take out the shooter, and it wasn't until after officers arrived at the scene that he was taken down.
I'm positive he prevented the shooter from killing someone... The truth is we watch way too much TV and we think everyone is James Bond and that an officer or someone else with a firearm is going to take out the shooter, and usually that's not the case. It wasn't the case with Columbine, and it wasn't the case here - the "off duty officer" was only able to wound the gunman AFTER police arrived on the scene.
We will get to the point where we will have armed guards at schools, movies, churches, government offices, and other large buildings.
