How about a simulation where the college’s administration actually recognizes the warning signs of a potential violent act by one of it’s students?

Will there be video of this??????? I had the idea that if somebody could make a good video of this, then present it to Congress, showing the fallacy of college gun-free zones.

And malls

And churches

And high schools

It will be on the local news websites the evening after it happens. I’ll link to it.

For instance, volunteers have been tapped to play parents who want information about students. University employees will staff phone lines and set up Web sites and emergency radio transmissions to keep the campus community informed.

Here's an idea: put some volunteers out there with concealed weapons. Those with concealed weapons don't know who the perp is and vice verse. Let's see how long it takes for an armed citizen to put an end to the assault.

Wanna lay odds that the “perp” will be a crazed white-supremacist Christian?

Seems like a lot of work for such a short simulation. The first simulated student nearby with a carry permit and a weapon will take the simulated attacker out within the first minute.

“Let’s see how long it takes for an armed citizen to put an end to the assault.”

On the UNCG campus that might take a while. It’s moonbat/gay city over there.

What is a “gun attack”?

Is that like an SUV rampage?

Sharpshooter good, sniper bad. Armed police officers on campus good, armed citizens on campus bad. Sheeple reliant on government saviors good, self-reliance and self-empowerment bad.

I consider a sharpshooter to be somebody more than averagely proficient with an automatic weapon, ie. an M-16. I consider a sniper to be somebody using a dedicated sniper rifle, such as a bolt-action.

Save a lot of bucks, save a lot of lives, save a lot of training. Arm the students! Problem solved.

“The first simulated student nearby with a carry permit and a weapon “

Now that would be funny. If I were a “volunteer”, I might pack a paintball gun or squirtgun filled with ink. Then, when the Sudden Jihad Moment breaks, I’d issue a mighty battle cry* and ink the perp in the heart (twice, then ink him in the head).

Then what would the rest of the simulation be? Probably just put on hold until they wipe the ink off, then they’d continue after I was hauled off in ‘cuffs, and MSM would rewind the tape so nobody would know.

This should keep the drama students busy.

You left "Male" and "pick-up/windowless van driving" out of the description of the miscreant.
