the turkish airport cop shot 1 of 3 terrorists, in the hip (dropped AK went flying across floor), an interesting choice as it instantly disables and immobilizes, is easier than head/CNS shot...but then he failed to double tap skull, but ran away, allowing wounded terrorist to detonate vest. Could have cost lives [including his], maiming, casualties. If everyone armed, high probability only explosives (ie. the Belgium airport, still everyone unarmed but they still didn't chance it)....even pistol doubtful as would result in instant lethal response to terrorist (has happened often globally, they call in bomb squad to disable the vest), lower casualty rate of victims, than detonating into a crowd.

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
