Exactly. What kind of moron seriously thinks this: "tackling him, smacking him over the head with a heavy object" would work better than pulling a gun!!
If what i have read is correct, the staff that tried to stop Adam Lanza did just that since they were unarmed in their gun free zone. It slowed him down, long enough to shoot them, but did not stop him.

C.S. Lewis
A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.
John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840
