    A customer rushed the gunman, wrestled the weapon away and threw it over the counter. “He is the hero here and no doubt he saved many lives.”https://nyti.ms/2JghLWY

        You understand that’s factually not true, right? As in, you’re literally not correct? Gatling guns (an automatic weapon) had been around and the Boston Massacre (killing of civilians)was a significant event leading to the American Revolution.

        This man truly is a hero! He stayed calm, thought about the situation & acted when the opportunity presented itself. He did save lives. To paraphrase:"If you can keep your head, when all about you are losing theirs, then you are a man my son!" Well done!
