I understand how this question appears logical, but you have to understand the peculiar psyche of the American gun owner and his Rifle Association: this isn't evidence of the need for gun control. In fact, it is evidence that everyone should be required to carry guns such that this individual would not have had a chance to get off more than a couple of shots before his classmates took him out. It's a fairly barbaric perspective, mostly informed by watching too many Bruce Willis movies, but that's 'merica for ya.
