Armed civilians also have the advantage of surprise. Jihadis in particular have the same disease that the Japanese fascists did. They don't believe we'll fight. The foreign ones come from places where civilians are nothing more than reactive targets.The Shooter(s) will have the advantage of surpise, almost certainly a rifle, more ammo (remember he doesn't have to carry it home with him ), planned and practiced his/her part in the attack, and possibly numbers.
Why do you think that in a future event events are going to turn out differently
And speaking of the Japanese, there was radar at Pearl Harbor and at the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Do you think they had similar results?
