Doctor Jeff Ferguson didn't want it known that he's licensed to carry a concealed weapon, but Tuesday- he didn't have a choice. On the phone he told 11 News, from the sound of the gunman's voice, he felt like someone was going to get hurt. [ ... ] He guarded the exit with his gun, allowing everyone else to escape and ready to shoot if he had to. "If this guy opens this door, I’m going to have to shoot him,” Dr. Ferguson said. “You were prepared to do that? I was absolutely prepared to shoot him, yes."

Good on him - as it should be. If you're going to carry it, you better be damn sure you're able to use it if necessary.
