There are somethings that are too crazy to make up. And this is one of them. Faculty and staff at Oakland University in Michigan are being trained to fight off would-be gunmen...with hockey pucks.

Its such a violent sport. Good call by the administration. This will save lives.

I doubt this will save lives, but hockey pucks do hurt like hell when you get hit with one.

So, hit a man holding a gun with a hockey puck and expect him to run away? Yeah, that’s gonna work. No.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE GUNMAN SHOWS UP WEARING ONE OF THESE?

I’ve had teeth knocked out by a hockey puck. The only thing this will even slow down is a soy fueled shooter

Hmmm...if I'm in a classroom, a would-be gunman is coming through the door, and all my professor has is a bucket of hockey pucks; goodbye everyone.

Apparently the students cannot be trusted to carry pucks to defend themselves with..... can the teachers at least carry them concealed to surprise the shooter?

Mama always told me, "Don't take a hockey puck to a gunfight".

I see the wisdom in this plan. The professor throwing the hockey puck could piss off the shooter enough that he uses up a lot of ammunition killing the professor repeatedly, thus giving the students a chance to escape.

How to make absolutely certain you'll get shot by a would-be gunman. Hit him in the crown of his head with a hockey puck.

Hit ME with a hockey puck outside of a hockey rink and I will take you out and I don't mean on a date.

I wonder why hockey pucks it seems so random I mean why not croquet or skee balls it seems like they would be more accurate and probably cheaper as well.

Somebody thought " slap shot " meant something else.
