    And just imagine if someone near them had a gun after the first gun shot the shooter would have been wounded or dead and maybe no one would have died or been injured. I can’t believe these people go out in public for interviews, with all the crazies we have now on the streets trying to make a name for themselves, without any protection, at least another person with them to be their eyes and cover their backs. Maybe look to the station, could it be that they are cheap and willing to risk their reporters lives to save money.
