ED SCHULTZ MAKES BOLD CLAIM THAT U.S. HAS ‘NEVER HAD A CIVILIAN STOP A SHOOTING’ — SO WE PROVE HIM WRONG

MSNBC personality and radio host Ed Schultz on Thursday made the bold claim that the U.S. has “never had a civilian stop a shooting” while arguing against having armed personnel in schools.

During his radio show, Schultz said a gunman might even view it as a “challenge” if there were armed employees at school. Here’s what he said:
 
“Would it be a deterrent if, you know, say perpetrators know that there’s guns in the schools? How do we know they wouldn’t view that as a challenge? I mean, we got a goofy world out there. I’m just not convinced that packing a small firearm is the best defense or certainly not the best defense.

You know, you want to make the best defense? Make the school a damn fortress. I mean, you could do that, I mean but, is that reasonable? Is that the right thing to do? Is it necessary? […] haven’t we had enough school shootings where this is necessary? We’ve never had a civilian stop a shooting.”

Another freaking idiot who knows nothing of what he speaks. All for the almighty ratings which in turn means the almighty dollar.

That is such an asinine statement from him it deserves no rebuttal.
