One club patron with a concealed pistol could have stopped him.

Still think the gun laws we already have are a good idea?

One club patron *did* have a concealed pistol? Orlando Police Chief John Mina said an off-duty police officer working security at the club in uniform traded gunfire with the attacker.

You really think it would have worked out better if the club patrons (most of whom would have been drinking pretty heavily by 2am) had started blindly firing their own pistols in that dark and crowded space? There's absolutely no way that even a trained marksman would have been able to see what he was doing properly in that sort of situation, it was an absolutely packed nightclub
