I wonder if he was using a revolver. Sounds like whatever he was using was low round count and took time to reload.

I just read that one of the wounded has died. So two dead and two wounded. The attacker has been reported as using a shotgun. As he was reloading a student sprayed him with pepper spray and then grabbed him. Other students joined in to hold the attacker down.

Hats off to this young man for his selfless act.

Proof that an armed citizen can protect themselves and others. Even if it's pepper spray. Glad it was enough to get the job done... This time.

Now some will say "see, all that's needed is pepper spray" just because that was the case in this instance.

Reading comments in one article about the shooting, and that's all I'm seeing. A whole bunch of anti-gun, anti-NRA propaganda.

The hero who saved everyone was a volunteer guard with pepper spray. Colin Noir pointed me via a Facebook post to his Facebook page. Under his likes were more than a few gun manufacturers.

So he's a gun guy.

Doubt that will be talked about on the news.
