"The outcome here would have been much better had fifty armed citizens opened fire on this guy all at once."
50 armed citizens couldnt hit anything except each other. From what I observe the average armed citizen who thinks they know how to shoot would fill their shorts long before they could actaully aim.

The solution to that presumed problem is to require anyone who wishes to carry a concealed handgun to undergo proper training (at least 18 hours) with that specific weapon at his/her own expense. And the training should be briefly refreshed (4 hours) once a year."The outcome here would have been much better had fifty armed citizens opened fire on this guy all at once."

Their best was shooting nine innocent people, killing two of them, in an attempt to hit one guy?
The bar is apparently set very low to be an NYPD officer these days.
Actually, if you pay attention, you'll see that every cop shooting, where there is a large number of rounds expended, there will be relatively few that hit their target.
Watch the stories - you'll read some amazing numbers. Like 60 rounds fired, 15 hits.
Just goes to show the folly of the gun nuts thinking they can do better.
Cops are trained and retrained constantly but, when faced with being shot at or with having to actually shoot at a human being, they find its not as easy as the guns say it is.
The gun nuts will swagger and brag that they would take someone down if they dared touch their TV but the facts don't bear this out.
Cops are also trained to handle the aftermath of shooting a human being. Nonetheless, cops have a hard time dealing with it. And, if the big talking gun nuts think differently, they're bragging about something they know nothing about.
Maybe Bloomberg needs to take guns away from his police, instead of normal citizens.
