So sure, they may get mowed down a little quicker if a couple of quick-draws in the 3rd row stand up and catch him in the chest, but that doesn't mean he won't still kick those doors in, fully armed and guns blazing randomly and try to do as much damage as he can before the gunfire he might now anticipate starts.

Exactly.
Students are expected to have one hand on their pen and the other on their gun at all times. These would-be assailants should be very afraid. Not.
