See my post #40. Compare the number of lives lost at Trolley Square in Salt Lake City and the number lost at Columbine High School in Columbine, Co. Professional police seem to think the rush is more effective than the "sitback and and hope they don't kill 'em kill all" approach.

that and the media is still excoriating them here in Denver for not going in right away. In retrospect, they should have gone in Columbine right away, they may have saved lives that way.

But up against muslim terrorists whose only goal is to kill as many as possible, I'm not sure any strategy is effective. They will not be 2 novice teenagers randomly shooting. I could see them waiting to get as many LEO's as possible in the building before they blew it up. I'm afraid once they get in a building or bus, there is zero chance of anyone coming out alive. You simply cannot defend agaist people who are willing to die bringing about their desired end, and rushing the building the LEO's would find themselves fighting against a professional army, not inexperienced teenagers. I'm afraid there is no good answer.
