In a small ville that'll be the case always. In USA LEO's would have cordoned off the area and arrested anyone showing up armed to help..... As I looked at the scene in russia I was thinking exactly that. The on scene commander had to be in complete panic mode when he lost control of the chaos at hand...... half killing and half trying help. Shooters under his command, shooters trying to help and killers all engaged. No a good place to be for victim or victor.....

Stay safe !

"Loss of control" is a scenario we have to plan for. Premature detonation, etc. Even the "hasty assault" plan can go to sh!+.

But damn, did you see the footage of ordinary Russians right behind the commandos, under fire?!?!? It's one thing to rush a building when you are in uniform, wearing a helmet and armor, carrying a rifle. It's your job, it's duty.

But "Ivans" in t-shirts were carrying fire hoses and grabbing children, right behind the soldiers, under intense fire!

I want them as allies in this fight.
