There the one’s in the rag head outfit with the sheep girl friends. They pray five times a day pointed at Mecca, easy target. If all else fails wear bacon around you neck and a pork chop in you hip pocket. First rule of fight club is there are no rules. Small unit action fast and clean, go to the jungle.

A somewhat hypothetical answer, to be sure.

Terrorist attacks are easily battles of attrition.

Once they run out of ammo, firepower, and their stealth, they are simply finite targets in an environment of millions of very upset armed Americans.

Small unit actions are only fast and clean when the units are well-trained and controlled.

Random collections of overage, overweight and over-eager wannabees will neither fast nor clean.

Liberals are just afraid we’d kill a muslim terrorist. They see them as friends.

Islamic terrorists invade the WashPo offices and start shooting people. Robinson hears the gunfire and doesn't know what to do. One of the terrorists barges into Robinson's quarters, but one brave office worker sneaks up and klonks the terrorist over the head with a hard object knocking him out.

Within easy reach of Robinson is the terrorist's automatic weapon. What do you think Robinson might do? Wait for the swat team to save everybody, or pick up the weapon? Unless Robinson is the stupidest person in the world, he picks up the automatic rifle.

He might pick it up, but would he know how to use it? Would he even know which end to point at the terrorist?

I bet he'd pick it up. I don't think even stupid liberals like Robinson are totally clueless. Even if he didn't know how to use it, he'd give it a try.

My point was the gun-hating Robinson when faced with a mortal threat to his life, would be very happy to have some firearm in his hands rather than unarmed and hoping the police could save him before he was drilled.

Thanks to lefties I have been waiting since November for a firearm purchase ID card so I can buy a shotgun. I turned in all the paperwork for the background checks including letters from two character witnesses, notarized, no less. One of those letters is from a township cop. Still waiting.
You may want to consider moving to Arizona or Texas.

Well there is something to be said. Both the terrorists in Paris and the police dressed basically the same - bullet proof vest, black with balaclavas.

Some police said, police while others did not.

I will still be armed though.
