MSNBC personality and radio host Ed Schultz on Thursday made the bold claim that the U.S. has “never had a civilian stop a shooting” when arguing against having armed personnel in schools.
During his radio show, Schultz said a gunman might even view it as a “challenge” if there were armed employees at school. Here’s what he said:
