How can this happen ? Usually every security personnel has his/her gun on safety and that is standard procedure. Unless this is a planned attack and the supposed insane man knows how to use a rifle. An assassin if you like. 7 Likes |

A military man won't allow a random person get close to his gun, much more, disarming him unless the supposed mad man is well trained to do so. 10 Likes |
