A few more people like this guy and the body count would have been much lower. The first thing too strike me (after the OhhmyGodOhhmyGodOhhhmyGod) was how a single shooter with a 9mm semi-auto could rack such a body count without being swarmed...

yeah, some of the reports are saying he was just a stone cold killer and that he targeted those physically closest first and that he changed clips with the speed of a pro. A couple survivors have talked about how "professional" he seemed. One kids described it as being like some movie assassin. And he had two guns to switch between.

I think that, as much as we'd all like to think differently, that faced with the same challenge many of us, if not most, would choose hiding or flight over confrontation. Hoping that maybe he'd run out of bullets or that he was just after someone in particular and that your best chance would be in staying low.

Hopefully the rest of us never find out how we'd react.
