Sounds more like hustlers trying to make a buck off of all the fear and hype. Other people's fear can mean big $$ if you approach it the right way.

Your chances of getting caught up in a mass shooting are tiny. It's no different than the people who sell overpriced prepper stuff to those afraid of the coming Obamapocalypse.

There's always going to be somebody trying to make a dollar off of anything.
