Good guy without a gun

stops bad guy with a gun.

An Indiana middle school student armed with two handguns opened fire inside his science classroom Friday, authorities said, wounding a classmate and a teacher whose swift intervention was credited with saving lives.

The shooter, who had asked to be dismissed from the class before returning with the guns, was arrested "extremely quickly" after the incident around 9 a.m. at Noblesville West Middle School, police Chief Kevin Jowitt said. Authorities didn't release his name or say whether he had been in trouble before but indicated he likely acted alone.

Seventh-grader Ethan Stonebraker said the student was acting suspiciously when he walked into the room while the class was taking a test. He said science teacher Jason Seaman likely averted a catastrophe.

"Our science teacher immediately ran at him, swatted a gun out of his hand and tackled him to the ground," Stonebraker said. "If it weren't for him, more of us would have been injured for sure."

    It seems he put the lives of his students before his own.  Hero

    He's a hero.
    He should be celebrated and rewarded.
    The anti gun group should cut him a huge check......like a George-Soros-never-work-again check.......

    Of course he got shot as well.
    Personally I try and avoid getting shot. Wonder how it would have turned out if he had Tarpons Sig in his pocket...winning..

    Good guy, great job.
    Unfortunately he wasn’t armed and now the shooter will be a huge cost for the whole community.

    Hoping this da.mn emulation trend will finish soon, but unfortunately the celebrity they can reach with this kind of act looks to be an irresistible temptation for many weak teens.

    We should be arming teachers with blackbelts.  

    I'm not exactly sure what the point of this thread it.  It certainly isnti an argument for using guns as protection.

    Trump sent a tweet Saturday saying: "Thanks to very brave Teacher & Hero Jason Seaman of Noblesville, Indiana, for his heroic act in saving so many precious young lives. His quick and automatic action is being talked about all over the world!"

    In other news, firefighter puts out flames by hand.

    Sure they can, but why make them?
    The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.
