Virginia shooting

I was shocked one person could kill so many people. While I am not judging the victims of mass shootings, it reminded me of when the late Jeff Cooper said that during these kinds of shootings, the victims cowered while the goblin shot them. He said you should resist, with your bare hands if necessary.
If six of those students had stood up, grabbed their desks or chairs to use as shields, and charged the shooter, he would have been lucky to have dropped two of them before being tackled and disarmed.
I have no idea what I would do in that situation, but I hope, that like the people on Flight 93, I would have the courage to fight back.
