Just my personal opinion here...These nuts choose targets where they believe they can accomplish their carnage unopposed, so they don’t expect anyone to interfere until the police arrive. A person with a J Frame will have the element of surprise if they can maintain their composure and make the shots count.

Like the guy said earlier, you cannot always conceal what you’d prefer to CCW...so you have to adapt. That was pretty brave, carrying a J Frame at work when it was banned. My first thought when I read about this shooting was “Just terrible, and to think it could have been stopped by one person with a little J Frame...”...
