Off-Duty U.S. Marines Stop a Terrorist in France

A terrorist attack in France was thwarted by American marines who happened to be aboard a train:

Two heroic American men, unarmed and in civilian clothing, helped overpower a 26-year-old gunman armed with an automatic rifle, knife and razor blades who brazenly opened fire in a high-speed train traveling from Amsterdam to Paris on Friday evening.

And somehow they did it all without guns.

Training and competence are far more important than having a gun. Had there been untrained, armed, Second-Amendment-quoting, trigger-happy "Oath-keepers" aboard instead, half the train could have been shot up.

More guns do not make us safer. Quick-thinking and heroic people do.
