Ditto Virginia Tech, where they cowered behind trees until the last ammo had been fired. This testimony should be send to the SCOTUS to help them with their current deliberations over the 2nd Amend. Concealed Carry should be the law of the land, with "gun free zones" restricted only to government buildings.
I once groused to a cop about this very thing. He was mortally offended with me for not seeing that the IMPORTANT thing was that all the police officers got home safely that day. We never did come to an agreement about it.
I mean, I personally believe that when a person puts on that badge, they also accept the risk attached to serving and protecting. Call me old-fashioned...
“Ditto Virginia Tech, where they cowered behind trees until the last ammo had been fired.”
You REALLY should know what you’re talking about before you spout off and show your profound ignorance.
The cell phone shots you saw of officers behind cars and trees was the second wave. Not in those pictures were the 12 officers already going inside while shots were still being fired. The officers behind trees and cars were doing EXACTLY what they had been trained to do — shutting off the perimeter of the building so the shooter couldn’t slip out. The first police on the scene went into the building as quickly as they could
Last shots had been fired? That’s where you really show you don’t know anything at all. When Cho killed himself because he heard the police coming, he still had more than 200 unfired rounds. That;s been all over the media.
What business do you have calling the police at the VT massacre cowards? You owe every one of them an apology.
BTW, the information in my post came from the official state panel investigation, which you could have easily read if you bothered.
