If I put two in his chest and he's still moving, I'm not hesitating to put as many as I can in his noggin.

He reportedly took a large amount of vicodin. I am a CCW holder and believe given his reported attire a hand gun wouldnt have made much difference. You have to figure an AR15 laying down heavy fire makes returning fire difficult. As soon as you take your first shot he will begin returning fire at your muzzle flash. He went in armored and gave up to police, which means he may have been planning on encountering resistance in the theater. If you look at the North Hollywood bank robbery dozens of police firing at two suspects in broad day light did nothing to slow them down. Bringing a handgun to a rifle fight never ends well especially when the guy with the rifle is wearing armor.
This guy wore a ballastic helmet, bullet resistance vest, groin, throat, an leg protection. A CCW Returning fire may have broke his concentration but it would have likely been a suicide mission.
