Every year, mass shootings are prevented by armed citizens, and these stories go with very little reporting, or completely un-reported altogether.
| Year | Name(s) | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 1997 | Joel Myrick, Luke Woodham | A student came on campus armed with a gun. Assistant principal Joel Myrick, also with a gun, prevented the student from going on a Columbine-style rampage.[1] |
| 2015 | Not released | A man opened fire in a barber shop. Another person, who was a legal gun permit carrier,[2] shot and killed the shooter saving a lot of people's lives, according to the Police Captain. |
| 2016 | James Howard | Gun shop owner refused to sell a gun to a customer, even though he passed a background check.[3] |
| 2016 | Everardo Custodio | An Uber driver was waiting for pedestrians to cross the street when a man began firing into the crowd.[4] |
| 2016 | Jody Ray Thompson | An irate man opened fire on patrons waiting to enter into the Playoffz nightclub. In self-defense, someone returned fire stopping the incident.[5] |
