  1. Would be interesting to hear the reasons why he didn't go in, is it protocol to go in alone ? Pretty daunting situation to go into a building with an unknown number of shooters, so wonder what was said when he was on the radio. Wonder who you want to be good guys with guns in this circumstance ? Can't be students (kind of is the problem ). Definitely would have the same problem with outsiders near the school intervening as with the deputy.
  2. So there was a cop outside when the shooting was ongoing but he didn't go in.
  3. I guess you assume everyone is armed.
  4. Using a mouse ? Casual.
  5. If only people would clue into such a radical idea
  6. The thinking probably goes: "They are trained in the use of weapons and have faced warfare..." Yeah but that doesn't translate well to being a peace officer, so you'd have to train them regardless in that aspect (in theory..). Might as well just use more cops. Not to mention not all veterans are suitable for such tasks to begin with (as much as people worship a uniform), so it doesn't seem all that special when considering the larger pool of people to draw on. Apparently the Broward County cops will be packing AR-15s in schools - http://abcnews.go.com/US/deadly-parkland-shooting-deputies-now-carry-ar-15/story?id=53258747 I guess they anticipate armoured attackers?
  7. Weirdest suggestion I've heard so far was enlisting veterans to guard schools. Because veterans are special or something ?
  8. USMC wants to be a self contained service?
  9. Well yes, but I am just rolling with it. Prevention isn't sexy as it's hard work and behind scenes, sadly
  10. FN Five Sevens! But really, I would imagine just from physics alone getting blasted with rounds that don't penetrate is still going to incapacitate a shooter.
  11. So armed teachers is the solution of the day. Not a bad idea in terms of PR to have this meeting with students and teachers though.
  12. Or a Rogue Trader. Could be like Mass Effect but with more skulls
  13. http://articles.latimes.com/1997/jul/20/local/me-14688 Though maybe this doesn't count
  14. Billy Graham died.
  15. Or call it regulation of the militia.
  16. Isn't all prop usage, so?
  17. Yet another turn based game. GW has Orks in charge of the licencing I think - More Dakka is the answer
  18. They should make all semi-auto rifles come mandated to have pink spray jobs.
  19. Isn't it illegal though?
  20. An online test being sketchy, odd
  21. Natural Selection I guess. It's also a Half-Life mod, like the original CS. Never played it though. The best HL mod there was, changed a lot. Shame the sequel didn't catch, suffered from brutal load times, steep learning curve. The community was pretty good though.
  22. I dunno, CS of old was way more toxic, or even NS where being a commander that isn't some player's bitch results in being called things like a "catholic jew ****". It's just full of morons on voice chat or stereotypical types afflicted with delusions of competence.
  23. Played Dungeons 2....made me feel like replaying DK2. Didn't really game much this weekend, nothing really getting me motivated, other than torturing myself with Overwatch comp MP
  24. This is the best advice, as it'll be fairly cheap at that point.
