Three dead after man opens fire in Indiana mall, police say shooter killed by 'good Samaritan'

The shooter appeared to have been fatally shot by a 22-year-old "good Samaritan" who witnessed the attack and opened fire with a handgun with the intention of ending the assault, Ison said.

He praised the young man, identifying him only as being from Bartholomew County, south of the metro area.

"The real hero of the day was the Samaritan that was lawfully carrying a firearm who was able to stop the shooter almost as soon as it began," Ison said.

The three people who were killed by the shooter were shot by a legal gun owner as well.

That’s right. See it’s not the gun it’s the person. I’m glad you see that

 

[RDKirk]

Such a rare thing to happen, So perhaps gun advocates should be celebrating and shouting from rooftops about guns.
EXCEPT, some innocent people got killed by the shooter didn't they?
BUT, that can be swept under the rug, can't it.

More would have died if they'd had to wait for the police.

Your two-faced argument doesn't work. For the armed citizen to be sure his response is necessary, it's almost a necessity to wait until someone else has first been shot...otherwise people will claim he precipitated the violence.

 

[RDKirk]

is your definition of a good Samaritan someone who lets them die when he/she could prevent it?

Yeah, what if the Good Samaritan had gotten there early enough to have intervened in the original attack?

A good samaritan is an exceptional person of a normally reviled people who helps someone in need to great cost to themselves without seeking or obtaining any benefit from his actions.

The best way would be to count up all the deaths, all the gun murders in USA
How many people die per year in USA?

How many people did this one guy possibly save?


This incident, the reason for this thread. 3 people were murdered. This isn't something to celebrate. It is yet another awful consequence of the USA gun culture.

Sure this guy that took the killer down can feel glad that he was able to stop him. But this whole incident isn't something to be celebrated. 3 people were gunned down. This is a tragedy. Yes, it could have been worse, if it wasn't for this one guy. Yes it could have been better, if USA had decent gun control, like all the other 1st world countries that do have decent gun control.

It wouldn’t be better. Only the bad guy would have a gun and there would be no one to stop him.

Except, in countries with decent gun control laws, the "bad" guy typically doesn't have a gun and these countries aren't ravaged by mass shootings and gun murders.

They weren’t saturated with guns like the US. Bad guys will always be able to get guns here, just like drugs

Which describes the Good Samaritan who stopped an active shooter, saving lives at the risk of his own

Any money the shooter’s weapons were legally acquired, too.

 

[Larniavc]

REmind me how a cop is supposed to know who is the good guy if you see 3-4 people shooting at each other?

Yes. See it’s the person not the gun. One person was killing people and another person stopped him. They both had guns. It’s the person not the gun

It’s not something to joke about

rando

This is short for ‘random person who just happens to be present’. It’s not an insult.

 

[Larniavc]

It’s not something to joke about

It’s also something to not do nothing about: but here we are again.

 

[BPPLEE]

Could you reword that so that it makes sense?

When you don’t know what to do just do something? I don’t think that’s good advice
