The shooter has not been caught. The shootings occurred at the Gateway Office Building in downtown Orlando.

Yes, I agree. But the criminals already have weapons.

....and the soldiers at the base were unarmed. Had they been, I am sure the shooter would have been dropped after the first few shots he fired.
