I'm not familiar with the specific situation, but two things occur:
1) If everybody is shooting, how are the Police supposed to take out
only the bad guys? It's a lot easier when there is a clear difference
between shooters and victims.

The idea here is that the police won't be needed presumably, as the bad
guys will be dead by the time they get there.

2) If that much lead is flying around, I would expect the death toll
to be /much/ higher.

Yes, but not as high as it will be once kids start bringing mortars to
school to protect them from the kids with the grenade launchers.
