A bunch of police officers did not go into the school after him, and stopped parents from going in. So good guys with guns did not stop that until, from what I understand, an off duty Border Patrol officer went in and killed the murderer, getting shot in the process. So a good guy with a gun DID end it after other marginally not good guys with guns (and body armor and rifles) held the parents back.

Large numbers like Stalin and Hitler? Or like Lanza, Ramos, Holmes, and Cruz?

They are almost certainly not Republicans because there are so few remaining in the city to pick from.
