I'm beginning to think these citizen heros who take down active shooters may be members of some sort of White Hat operation to curtail or minimize these Deep State false flag operations.

There is a point at which we have to say; 'more than coincidence'. That someone with all the necessary and appropriate gun carrying legalities is at the right place at the right time.

Erik Prince has been known to have super-duper intel from both White & Black hat operations/events and could very well be recruiting these young members. FYI; Prince's Book is titled; 'Civilian Warriors; The Inside Story of Blackwater and the Unsung Heroes of the War on Terror'

Just take a look at the Google pages and news on Erik Prince. The 2nd Amendment clause reminds me of Prince; '....a well regulated militia.' Prince is operating his own Militia on terrorism. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=erik+prince

Just a theory my friends, but regardless, that citizen hero took down evil in that shopping mall.
