My AR-15, deer rifle, semi-automatic pistol or shut gun could have killed or severely wounded him and saved lives.

Or your semi-automatics could have taken a lot more. Not used by you I assume, ...

It only takes one or two accurate shots to kill or severely injure a shooter like Mateen. Your view represents the view of a person who has never shot a gun, who has never hit a target with a round, who most likely has never handled a gun, who is not very familiar with them, who does not feel comfortable with them, who is most likely afraid of guns and afraid of people who have/own guns and so forth. You seem like you'd be more interested in saving yourself than saving others if you were placed in a similar situation based on the post.

Out of basic curiosity, have you ever been in a situation where an active shooter is both present and a threat?  If so, how did you react?  If not, how can you know how you would have reacted?
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
