A Good Guy With An AR-15

OSWEGO, Ill. — A man armed with an AR-15 rifle helped stop a knife attack during an argument in Oswego.
It happened on Monday at an apartment building on Harbor Drive.
Police say it all began when someone with a knife attacked another person during an argument.
Neighbor Dave Thomas, who witnessed the attack, went into his home, got his rifle and ordered the suspect to stop.
“I ran back into the home, into my house and grabbed my AR-15. Grabbed the AR-15 over my handgun. It’s just a bigger gun. I think a little bit more than an intimidation factor definitely played a part in him actually stopping.”
No shots were fired.
The suspect was able to get away briefly, before police captured him.
The stabbing victim was taken to a hospital, and is expected to recover.
Wait! I thought AR-15s were evil and only did bad things of their own volition, or turned good guys into bad guys who perpetrate mass shootings by their bad vibes and mind-control?
Guess this story breaks that narrative (as if it hasn’t been broken a thousand times before), sort of like the one about Stephen Bayazes.

I’m having a hard time making any sense of this story. We all know what terrible damage can be done with a knife in seconds. If the victim was already being stabbed, death was very close. IF the guy was carrying his handgun, why in the world would he run off to get a rifle? Close encounters are what handguns are made for. In a knife attack, time is of the essence. What really happened here?
