It would be a terrifying situation. None of us are ninjas and I doubt that most people would take on someone with a gun armed only with an edged weapon, and would also be reluctant to not try to do something knowing that people are being killed by the minute.
I would probably run like hell for the sporting goods counter, combined with 911. That is the only realistic option aside from an attack from behind which you knew beyond a shadow of a doubt would kill them swiftly.
Suppose the employees heard the chaos and were loading up there- if any one of them were of the mind to. How fast can you get a couple shotguns from locked up behind glass to locked, cocked and loaded?
Would you venture out to try to get a distance shot with an unfamiliar weapon to save more lives, or hunker behind the counter talking to the dispatcher?
