“...19 police officers waited in a school hallway for over an hour instead of taking out the killer...”
These guys were not Marines...at least of my generation!
No, there weren’t any Marines present that day. I can promise you if kind of attack happened here, they’d have a Marine going in, whether they tried to stop me or not.
YUP; back in my day Marines were paid to close with the enemy and KILL THEM, or die trying!
SEMPER FI
