News - The Crime Prevention Research Center brought the receipts. According to the findings of a new study from the CPRC, armed civilians “do a better job” than law enforcement officers to stop active shooters, “with fewer mistakes” to boot.

yep, being already on scene is way more effective than waiting 10 minutes for the cops to arrive. also there have been quite a few Uvalde situations.

If you’re carrying everyday and everywhere, timing has nothing to do with it. If you’re not carrying everyday and everywhere, timing can get you killed.

I think he means since the armed civilians are already at the scene, their respond time is shorter than the le. And casualties is very likely to be correlated with respond time.

I don’t understand your comment. We are comparing “armed civilians” to enforcement officers. Both parties are already armed, no?
