Nancy : Guns Save lives

From John Farnam:

NY Incident, from a friend close to the investigation:
"Without getting into data that is not yet in public view, I
believe we can take two key learning points from this terrible
incident:
(1) This VCA scored an impressive KIA/WIA ratio. When handguns
are involved, the ratio is usually 20/1, or even less. When
heaver weapons are involved, and, as with the Columbine Incident
in CO, police do not respond aggressively, the ratio is much
higher, as we see! Responding officers did not make entry for
forty-five minutes. That is a long time in a one-way fight!
(2) However, even with the best of tactical plans, we police are
rarely in a position to save anyone from violent criminals. We
are oh-so good at chalking out bodies and collecting evidence.
We positively excel at figuring out precisely what happened, and
who did what. All of which is cold comfort for those at the
pointy end of the spear, in the present tense!"
Lesson: Be in a position to defend yourself, or suffer the
consequences. It's that simple!
Don't wait to be rescued, and don't worry about someone else's
rules. There are no "degrees of dead," and you won't get to
change channels nor go back to the beginning and reboot!
We're going to see this again!
