Those reactions are excellent illustrations of the vast differences between places like Utah and Texas, and the Socialist People's Republics like Kalifornia, New Jersey, Maryland, and NYC.By the time officers arrived the suspect had been subdued by employees and shoppers. Police had high praise for gun carrying man who ended the hysteria. Lt. Brian Purvis said, "This was a volatile situation that could have gotten worse. We can only assume from what we saw it could have gotten worse. He was definitely in the right place at the right time."
Dozens of other shoppers, who too could have become victims, are also thankful for the gun carrying man. And many, like Danylle Julian, are still in shock from the experience. "Scary actually. Really scary. Five minutes before I walk out to my car. It could have been me.

Preventing School Shootings
A Summary of a U.S. Secret Service Safe School Initiative Report
School Staff Are Often First Responders
Most shooting incidents were not resolved by law enforcement intervention.
More than half of the attacks ended before law enforcement responded to the scene despite law enforcement’s often
prompt response.
In these cases, faculty or fellow students stopped the attacker, or the attacker either stopped shooting on his own or
committed suicide. Many of the incidents lasted 20 minutes or less
