A gunman toting a long gun opened fire in the food court of the Greenwood Park Mall in a suburb of Indianapolis, killing three and wounding two. What the police have termed “a Good Samaritan” pulled his handgun and killed the murderer before his rampage could get worse.
That last paragraph says everything that needs be said about gun control.
There has been a great deal of handwringing panic over Indiana’s new right to carry law that took effect a few weeks ago. This is why it exists.
I took down the post for its facetious tone out of respect for the dead, not its message.
Update. Reposted.

I respect that.
But it was a true sentiment.
As was your second paragraph.
That "Good Samaritan" has to live with having killed another human being.
It will help that he saved many more, presumably himself and his included, doing so.
I understand swapping out the post out for one with a gentler delivery. And, of course, I agree with the point of it.
Note also that the hero has retained an attorney. Sad that it has come to that.
