A news piece on the reality of the "active shooter"
scenario was recently aired by WCPO
in Cincinnati. The story relates the (somewhat dated) news that law
enforcement now understands waiting a half-hour to assemble a
tactical team to make entry during such an event costs lives.
What's surprising in this story is the admission that "weapons
prohibited" signs actually result in more victims. They point out
that not only do weapon-free zones eliminate the ability to fight
back against an attacker, the signs themselves actually entice a
killer to pick that spot for his spree. As those of us in the self
defense movement have been saying, criminals prefer unarmed victims
- and what better way to find them than through advertising?
Remember: what seems obvious to us isn't often so to others. Kudos
to WCPO for having the courage to look at facts, not
hyperbole.
