Agreed, that is what often happens. But after seeing this pattern before, that does not mean the solution going forward is to yell "hey everyone there is a gun" and hope management gets to it before the person with malicious intent.

Sure, maybe management will ignore you if you tell them about the gun privately. At that point, feel free to disclose publicly. But they are guaranteed to not do anything if they don't know about it and you don't tell them (before telling everyone else including bad actors).
