Three problems with that reply. First up, you're changed the angle completely — NinjaKunt claimed that someone else with a gun "could probably have ended the carnage in a second" which is action movie fantasy, given the situation. Secondly, he's chosen a plan where other people with guns are unlikely to stop him from being able to do a lot of damage. Thirdly, the people who do this kind of thing are usually quite unstable and can't be counted on to think rationally, so others with guns are unlikely to be an effective deterrent.
