A few years ago we attended a very large sporting event. 100 thousand+ people confined in a bowl. Only fire arms were possessed by the +/- 100 or so LEOs working the event security. All I saw were handguns on the LEOs. When we got to our seats I realized how vulnerable this unarmed crowd was. I won't describe the vulnerabilities that I observed but they were numerous. A crowd panic alone would probably kill 100s. I then realized that I actually saw the event better in front of my TV and I felt safer!
