shot and killed by an off duty officer while chasing an armed robbery suspect

As far as I can tell, all of the 'good guys' here were off-duty LEOs; no non-LE firearms carriers at all. And yet, you don't argue that off-duty LEOs - the people who allegedly erred - shouldn't carry, you claim that this shows that other people shouldn't. And you ask us to imagine the hypothetical bloodshed in more permissive states, despite the recorded lack of actual bloodshed in those places. That, Mr. Harris, is extremely flaccid reasoning on your part...
