Scarborough Justifies: Parkland Deputy Didn't Go in Because he Was "Overmatched"
YouTube ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/23/2018 5:03:29 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Joe Scarborough said he wasn't justifying the failure of the Parkland deputy to enter the school during the shooting. But that's exactly what Scarborough did.

On Morning Joe, Scarborough said:

"There actually was a 'good guy with a gun,' as the President and every NRA member will say. There was a good guy with a gun at a school. There was a law enforcement officer with a gun at the school. And he didn't go in. In part, I am sure, because he was overmatched. Now, that's no justification."

FinkelBlog is currently down. I'm posting the YouTube I prepared of Scarborough justifying, while claiming he wasn't justifying, the failure of the Parkland deputy to enter the school.

Joes obvious purpose: defeat the "good guy with a gun" argument.

Scarborough tries to defeat “good guy with a gun” argument by saying there was one at Parkland but he didn’t go in because he was “overmatched.”

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

I expect that this deputy will wish for a “do-over” the rest of his pathetic life.

Or, he will be a typical liberal and cling to the “overmatched” excuse.

A law enforcement 'professional', who is supposed to be highly trained at taxpayer expense, is overmatched by a crazed kid?

Pathetic.

He didn't go in because he is a COWARD.

Here Joe, with the security camera failure and poor police/security response time, the perpetrator could have likely exacted the same results with an ordinary gopher or clay target gun or even a decent hunting knife bought at Wal Mart.

In a life or death situation i bet Joe wouldn’t defend Mika and vise versa.
Of course, Mika would own a evil gun.
Joe probably uses a gun holster to carry his extra hair gel.

Democrats and other liberals are psychopathic. Police are trained to stop an aggressor who is killing people. Quickly before more people are killed.
Cowards have no business with a badge.

Cops shouldn’t be allowed to carry guns then.

Post Combine LEOs are trained to go in immediately and kill the threat. No waiting for Swat as the perp will kill until killed or running out of ammunition.

This is how the liberals want it-only cops are armed, and the cops were as effective as gun control would have been. And the kids pay the price.

A parent would have not felt “overmatched” but “empowered”. The point is we cannot rely on any government bureaucrat.

Joe Scarborough as George Costanza in a fire.

I'll bet Joe would knock over Mika on the way out the door.

That didn’t stop the coach and the JROTC did it, Joe?

Weren’t they over matched, unarmed as they were, Joe?

They were heroes, Joe.

And you are a greasy, stinking skidmark, Joe.

He had a gun, training, probably “body armor” and “he was overmatched” so I guess he was placed there to take on unarmed, cooperative students.

What IS up with Slow’s hair? Personally, I suspect he has extensions. Donny Deutsch has the Jerry Lewis hair gel and no-socks look.
