What would you suggest to make a more realistic active shooter scenario?

Re: ABC 20/20 "Guns in America"

I too just caught the tail end of it. Hope to watch the full thing if it gets online. The last 15 minutes I did see were completely anti. "What did we do with all the guns we bought? Turned them into the police of course!"

The coverage at the end about shooting bystanders and friends infuriated me. Of course that's a danger! Everyone carrying knows this and takes this into account. They claimed "police train" as if to imply civilians that own firearms do not maintain a proficiency at the range.

I really was hoping I might have missed some coverage of the daily success stories of self defense that never make it to national media, but from what I've read here I guess they did not.

The conspiracy theorist in me has to wonder what outside pressure or encouragement was put in place to create and air this "balanced" report.
