When some kind of idiot who goes on a rampage like the clown in VT did last week, he would NOT do what he did if he knew that possibly anyone in his group of victims was armed and had minimal training…These twisted, sick minded people are cowards first and foremost, never forget that.
I myself and or any of my children would not have been one of the ones shot in the ass or the back as they all tried impossibly to escape out of a small open window….Where are the "men" of today's society ?
These "survivors" will find out there are worse fates than death.
Please, there were at least 50 people in that room before he started his shooting with only one 9mm pistol and 2 magazines ….and a .22 target pistol he didnt even use, why wasnt he bumrushed and a chair broken over his scrawny little head ? I dont care how fast on the trigger you think you are, if 10 guy's rush you, they will get you, you might get 2 of them….just maybe, being charged by 10 men from 15 feet away, he would mentally change from "hunter" to the "hunted" …Our rich Uncle Sam taught me this in the beloved Corps. Its no secret ? Its instinctual survival.
32 people dead ?… I cant believe that happened, am I to believe there were not 10 people out of the first 50 that didnt see this as the only alternative to being killed ?
Didnt anyone want to live and take this asshole down ? Once you figure out you cant get out because of locked doors, then your whole value system and priorities should change, you are in for the "fight" now…nothing is more dangerous than a wounded, or caged animal. Its a primal instinct called survival.
Its not a matter of heroics, its a matter of survival. Has responsible, positive action been bred out of the kids today ?
Now I fully expect all of the "Ivory Tower pansy's" out there will attack me and call me a "John Wayne" fighting dude,… you couldnt be further from the truth, I would hate to be thrust into a situation like that last week, but I'll be damned if I would let some little punk kill me or others like scared rabbits.
