The Tacoma Mall incident is a teachable moment about civilians who give warnings in rampages. Do it or get out of the Dodge.

I googled it, and here is what I found. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/htm...hooting20.html I don't really get what you are talking about because you give no context for your quote.

The 'hero' at Tacoma Mall stood up from behind cover and gave verbal commands to the shooter. The 'hero' was armed with a CCW and did not have it drawn. Upon issuing commands, he was summarily shot multiple times resulting in partial paralysis.

Helluva lesson.

So I know one axiom here has been to never close distance between yourself and a shooter

That is a pretty dumb axiom

If you are in grabbing distance of the shooter then the best thing to do would be to rush and disarm him as brutally as possibly.
