Literally the ONLY way to have Prevented this was if he Shot his GUN first before his Gun could shoot HIM! LITERALLY nothing else could have Prevented this! Nothing like background checks or safe storage laws or other things to ensure only safe gun owners have Guns!

A “good guy with a gun” should have shot him first, so we wouldn’t have this problem

Guy should've just called in an airstrike on his trash
