There is a reson why you never hear of policeman taking out these rampaging shooters. People need to understand that in a situation like this the police can not protect you - they only show up after the fact to collect evidence and prepare the bodies for removal.

I think we’re really seeing that even if they show up all they’re going to do is establish a perimeter and wait for the situation to resolve itself. It’s not their fault. I don’t blame them for not charging in when it would be tactically stupid. I blame those that establish these ‘no gun zones.’

The older I get the more I think that liberals/secularists project on to the state the attributes of God.

They expect the state to be omniscient—the state knows every thing about everyone.

They expect the state to be omnipresent—the state is everywhere, and able to meet every need.

They expect the state to be omnipotent—the state is able to protect in every situation.

You see this when people are told to wait for the authorities to arrive to remedy any dangerous situation. This mindset stunts initiative and eradicates the whole idea of self-preservation or self-protection.

Miss Assam is testimony to everything polar opposite to the liberal mindset. And far fewer people died because of her actions.
