Sounds like a convenient scapegoat in line with the current (and very american) rhetoric of “more guns and harder, tougher, badder people standing their ground“ being the solution that is forming from up high, starting with Trump and advocated for loudly by the NRA. I mean, at least no one yet came out saying the kids could have prevented it if they were less soft or sth ...
It's pretty out there to expect anyone to engage here and acting like that is the Job they get paid for ...

I not sure I agree with your analogy. The bank guard might stand down and wait for backup during a robbery but I sure as hell hope he engages once they just start killing all the hostages. I mean his job is armed security guard why wouldn’t he be expected to do one of the only 1 or 2 things he is employed to do?
