"When Seconds Count: Stopping Active Killers"

[KFP]

My Brother-In-Law passed this article along to me that I found filled with some FACTS from a reporter. That's right folks, there is someone in the media who sees the light - let's just hope that more of them see it too. He apparently got some flack from the sheeple and posted an update to his original article that shows one of his sources - Force Science News. I believe this is the same resource that Excaliber recommending checking out a while back.

The summary is that active shooters select places where there will be unarmed people and shoot until they're confronted.

What would John Wood have to say about the stress of the classroom, when faced with one of these situations? We need to continue to push our legislators to pass HB 1893/ SB 1164.

This needs to be seen by all the folks on the Calenders committee.

Charles, how could this best be handled?

As journalists, we are not interested in entering into the heated debate over gun control. We are, however, interested in reporting the facts. In this story, the facts point to the active shooters ignoring gun prohibitions and perhaps selecting those locations because they are "soft targets" where no resistance would be found.

This is a fantastic article and well written. I only wish all journalists would be so honorable as to report the truth, instead of their bias ideas.

This guy used to work for Channel 2(1997-2002)...ABC will just say he was brainwashed while here in Texas.

Love the article and the obvious facts that it points out.

Where else to go kill people but somewhere that guns are prohibited?

I've only heard of one shooting at a gun range, and that was just a couple of days ago where 2 LEOs were killed.
