Re: Deputy Shot in RV Campground

My heart goes out to the deputy's family. What a tragic, senseless loss. I guess there are a lot of facts about this situation, like the reason for the original gunshot the brought that deputy out to investigate or why the berserk guy ambushed her that will never be understood.

One of the things that I try to do is to examine all of the stories of shootings that are posted on this site and other locations to see what I can learn that would keep me and my family safer. It is bizarre events like this one that make me realize that 100% safety is not an achievable goal. The best that I can hope for is to reduce the odds somewhat.

Deputy Shot in RV Campground

http://www.rvbusiness.com/2011/01/deput ... usiness%29

Considering it was NYE in Ohio, this is truly a bizarre event. Not many recreational RV users will elect to stay in an RV in Ohio in December so it it likely that this particular park had long term residents who use RVs as homes.

The part of the article that I found disturbing was this quote
The sheriff said “many, many, many shots” were fired during the incident at the campground...
I've been concerned about having to use a gun in a campground to protect my family because of the paper thin walls of the surrounding RVs. I cannot imagine being around while an event like this was going on.
