I'm all for the armed citizens, being one myself, but this post was to contrast the police response here in fly over country to the police response at Virginia Tech. It infuriated me to see overweight cops in full battle dress with rifles that you and I aren't allowed to buy hiding behind trees during at VT within ear shot of the gun shots. The KC cops put this nut-job down with weapons that are readily available to all of us, but mostly with courage, bravery, and the willingness to put themselves in harms way to protect the citizenry. That is to be applauded, IMO.
Good point.
Many people feel the same way. My nephew and I saw the video of the cops response. My nephew just yelled out, "why are they cowards?" All I could say was they are trained to follow procedures and minimize risk "to themselves." It seems government is too bureaucratic in all aspects.
