The Mayor Speaks Out
'This is a case where, if they had an armed guard inside, they might have been able to stop him immediately,' Trump said on Saturday.
But, today the Pittsburgh mayor rejected Trump's call to have armed guards in places of worship to tackle mass shooters, saying that's not the answer to violence.

^ Pittsburgh Mayor William Peduto said an armed guard would not have helped stop Saturday's shooting at the Tree of Life Congregation Synagogue.
'I don't think that the answer to this problem is solved by having our synagogues, mosques and churches filled with armed guards,' he said.
The president also said he would visit Pittsburgh but offered no details. Mayor Peduto said that it would be up to the victims' families if Trump should visit them.
