Frequently before LEO arrive. The attention seeking school shooter….the angry vindictive worker just terminated….this type often commits suicide when cornered, when they have achieved their “objective”, when they lose control of the venue they are in. I would not count on the izzie jihadists taking the self check out lane when they encounter resistance. I would plan on them fighting till they are taken down. Some might give up or kill themselves but their motivation is not attention for themselves but terror for others. That means the highest body count possible.

Bruce, regarding, “can’t chase down everybody,” he doesn’t have to. The shooter can work within about a 50 yard radius, or line of sight indoors. Which doesn’t take into account ricochets.

But he can’t chase down everybody.
