That’s a fancy way to say you only get to lose a gunfight once.

I have been shot at, but never been in combat. I don’t carry a weapon because I don’t want that option. That option is one of the initial starting conditions of a higher order ordinary differential equation. I prefer a linear equation. If a firefighter is armored such that they can probably survive a gunshot, that would steer their thinking toward rescue over taking out the shooter. Let the cops do that.

True, if they're properly trained and doing their job it would be more effective.

That's not necessarily a solution either.

How about we let the fire department handle active shooters at schools. They know how to get there fast. They are ready to go at an instants notice. They know how to breach any building and rescue survivors. They have heavy protective gear on, just add a layer of kevlar. Or give them extra/different gear they can don on the way to the incident. They sure as hell don’t stand around outside discussing jurisdiction and strategy. They care more about rescue than they do about their own lives. -- AF mailing list <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> AF@af.afmug.com <http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> AF@af.afmug.com <http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com _____ -- AF mailing list <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> AF@af.afmug.com <http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
