Some people don't understand his "take precautions." What does that mean, exactly? I've told my friends what you people on here have said. THAT is helpful to them. I've told them about the guns and types of. They are going to get guns. They asked me "who do we shoot?" "How do we shoot?" I told them a gun safety class should accompany that gun. Mine did, it came along with. I think the LEO's should be FAR more able to give advice like this than I. I think deep concern and grief sometimes turns into anger. I do believe that is what happened to me today. Forgive me for being too hard on someone who has a difficult job and forgive me for thinking and (worse) saying he is doing it poorly, IMO.

Hey, Letitring..YOU are entitled to your opinion, and trust me, you are in good company with the one you expressed.

We didn't agree, but that doesn't mean you were wrong, there is no right or wrong with this darn situation.. :~)

Many of us here feel similarly - and direct our anger at LE. But it's a double-edged blade. On the one hand, we're frustrated (I refuse to say it the way HE does) at the lack of information we're getting that might enable us to protect ourselves and those we love. But on the other hand, everything he says seems to wind up becoming a part of the shooter's MO. So we waver between wanting to know everything and wishing that Moose would just shut up altogether until this is resolved. The anger, though, is quite present. I think it's general anger, though, at the feeling of being utterly unable to control something that, like it or not, is affecting our daily lives - and anger flourishes best when it has a specific target. Moose is an easy one.
