American hero right there. Those families will never forget what he did for them.
JFC, dude came boiling out of a shadow on the wall.
I had to watch it three times before I saw what the camera angle showed as a barely-there nook in the wall.
This is what heroes do. They run towards the danger, not away.
Well, unless they have bone spurs.
School administrators doing more for public safety than fucking police would.
Great job focusing on the gun (grabbing that arm) and then incapacitation. Lucky this ended this way.
Americans...
A country that produces mental health issues... And they give them guns. And Americans defend this like it's a normal fact of life.
David Bowie made a whole song about that.
A country that exists because of its use of guns to gain independence.
Its hard to change the culture when it exists literally because of having guns.
Yeah? Europe survived two World Wars. You don't see us having a gun culture like America.
Someone: < installs motif in the middle of the floor > Also Someone: nooo don’t walk on the motif.

Wow TIL OK has schools
I've seen lots of videos of good guys without guns saving people from bad guys with guns, but I've never seen a "good guy" with a gun do jack shit.
It's rare. Off duty SAS guy did work in Kenya that one time. Saved a bunch of people. 
I heard a story of someone who was at a gun show and some geniuses thought it would be a good idea to try and grab a bunch of rifles and just run for the doors, and of course about a dozen people drew down on them.
But then, that's like, proliferated guns at a gun proliferation party preventing guns from being proliferated by a tiny degree more than they would have otherwise, so... that kind of feels like a net neutral, overall.
And importantly, a guy running away.
And a theft, not an assault.
There was a case a few years ago where a good guy with a gun stopped a shooter. The bad guy apparently shot and killed a cop, and reportedly wanted to shoot other cops. The good guy shot & killed the bad guy.
Then the cops showed up and killed the good guy with the gun.

It happens occasionally, but it's pretty rare. I heard a story some time back of a gunman who drove up on a birthday party or something, and a bystander shot them.
The rate is far lower than the rate of gun accidents, or even gun homicides though. It's not an argument for lax gun laws. It just is an occasional side effect that can't and shouldn't be counted on.
I think John Oliver did a deep dive and found in the history of shootings, a small handful were stopped by "a good guy with a gun" while a significant number beyond that were stopped by people without guns.
He went further: the good guy with a gun often were used for disciplinary measures (read: send black students to the school resource officer) instead of guarding the place. Not only that, but in school shootings were more violent where there was good guy with a gun.

a principal doing what police could never
They could, and are literally set up for that, they just (many times) choose not to.
Eh. The copaganda says they are set up for that, but they've always been tools to protect wealth and power. The 6 part series Behind the Police with Robert Evans and Jason Petty is good. There is some implicit bias involved, but they do provide citations to back it up.
Science and medical had to rush the guy before security even joined the fight.
