In the aftermath of the Kansas City parade shooting, it's crucial to dispel the myth of the "good guy with a gun" as a reliable solution to mass shootings. While there's speculation that citizens may have intervened, the reality is that introducing more guns into such chaotic situations often escalates the danger. Video footage allegedly shows that if individuals had drawn firearms, the outcome could have been catastrophic. This highlights the rarity of successful interventions by armed civilians in mass shootings. The lesson here is not to rely on vigilante action but to address the root causes of gun violence through comprehensive societal measures.
