NOTE: How EVERY SINGLE ONE of the criminal cowards in the class of terroristic mass shooter/stabber gives up and flees immediately, or take their own lives instantly upon encountering resistance from an armed civilian or law enforcement officer.
On May 16, 2025, a disgruntled gym member in Las Vegas NV showed up to the establishment with a rifle and began shooting indiscriminately at patrons and staff inside after a brief verbal confrontation at the customer service desk. The perp fired 24 shots, killing one employee and wounding a couple of other patrons before sirens and flashing lights of LVMPD cruisers arriving on scene prompted him to try to flee. As the shooter left the gym, he stared down a LVMPD officer straight in the face for about a second, at contact range. Instead of trying to shoot it out with the officer, the perp attempted to sprint away before the rifle armed officer fired several shots from his own AR-15, fatally striking the perp.
The video below shows the mentality that is behind almost 99% of terroristic mass killers: They are absolute minimal effort cowards who only seek out the softest and easiest targets for their rampages. Contrary to popular myth fueled by action movies, VERY FEW of these kinds of criminals continue fighting after encountering resistance. Only a few fanatical, religiously indoctrinated and trained paramilitary operatives of certain warlord junta armies like those seen in Africa or Southeast Asia would engage responding fire in a drawn out, movie style firefight. The vast majority of spree shooters and stabbers either immediately quit and tries running away, or take their own lives once somebody else returns fire against them.
