I think the gun nuts need to get over the idea that somehow someone armed in that theater would have been able to take down the assailant . In addition to the weapons this psycho had he was able secure body armor. You would have needed a trained sniper to take this guy down.
It would be in bad taste to post the link here, but I would advise people who think an average citizen would be able to address an extreme situation like this to look up the YouTube video of the Bank Heist in LA in 1997, where two heavily armed gunman in body armor, with assault weapons were able to hold 400 police officers at bay until they were finally taken down. This type of assault is not easily dealt with.
People need to come to terms with reality that the only thing that protects us from more horrendous events like this is that more psychos haven't snapped like this one and taken a similar path. Currently, there is absolutely nothing preventing a massacre like this taking place everyday in the United States. Nothing.
