Given how union members shoot, they should be totally screwed.

My take-away from this - Unless you can get 1 mile away easily and quickly, you might as well stay and film the action, because hiding behind the walls of your house won’t protect you at all.

Years ago, some friends of ours were hosting a teenage girl from Bosnia. They picked her up at the airport on Saturday. The next morning the local news showed the implosion of an old multi-story department store downtown. The Bosnian girl looked around the room and said, “Why would you destroy a perfectly good building. There aren’t even any bullet holes.”

Throw water balloons, distract em so those “marksmen” with 30 round magazines can unload some more lead.

The police had no problem dragging them out of their houses and conducting illegal searches.

IR cameras would do the trick. They see through boats.

My son is a director of documentary films and has been in some dangerous situations such as the war in Bosnia and was kidnapped in an African country and only escaped by a UN helicopter coming in to rescue him and many other dangerous situations.

His evaluation now of knowing when to retreat out of a dangerous situation is this: He said he came to the realization that people would watch a film he was risking his life to get, then they would go to the kitchen and get something to eat or go to the bathroom. He decided his life was worth more than that so no more life risking for film.

Turns out, there's no good explanation other than dumb luck, because according to the laws of physics, they should be totally screwed.
Why? After a (reported) 200 round firefight the only one killed was dragged to death by his brother with a car...

Pretty pathetic display of law enforcement if you ask me.

Prepare... practice... engage if necessary. Nope... I don’t see “quivering on the floor inside a modern American dwelling” in this manual. ;-)

I say the safest place to be when a bunch of LEO stormtroopers decide to unload is a medium sized boat.

Why is it when authorities issue an evacuation order in a coastal hurricane area the press gets to remain in the area? I get miffed when I see storm coverage and you got some turd in a weather channel wind breaker standing in a storm surge in 80 mph winds telling everyone they should leave because it is dangerous.
