Adrenaline is a powerful, powerful thing. If cornered, no way out, I would rather rush a gunman and hope he misses or hits a non-vital area. Live or die at that point, at least I gave myself a chance. And as I stated before, hopefully adrenaline would allow me to overpower him.

Because it's the best course of action. Do you have a better idea?

If you can't run or hide, then you fricking fight.

Yes, it sounds foolhardy against someone with a gun. But this is life or death we're talking about. That's why it's called a "last resort."

yes the premise is correct

needs a better tag line though (marketing nerd-ism going off here)

You're right. If you can't run or hide, It's a much better option to just cower in a corner and wait to get shot.

After all, it's better to risk getting shot than to risk getting shot.

Yes you're alone I hope we kill them so we don't waste $4-5k a month keeping them alive in prison. I'm so tired of that nonsense, 2 bullets is all that's needed or why waste the money 2 bricks and a duffel bag

I like the sharp point of a folded credit card when I have to kill terrorists in a gun free zone.

I say we spend less on caring for savages like this. A cage exposed to the elements and nothing but bread and water

Where is Jim Harbaugh? He is a person of interest if you ask me.

So this is false reporting? A survivor of the Orlando attack who was shot three times has described playing dead while Omar Mateen fired relentlessly at people on the floor. Angel Colon told reporters Mateen had continued to shoot at club-goers who already appeared dead.


I was referring to a school situation. Orlando was different because it was a gay club and they were there to specific target the LGBT crowd. That's a different situation than at a school.

This story is so bizarre at osu is so bizarre.

How long they withhold the dead suspect's identity will be a big clue into what happened. If it's just a crazy white dude the name will come out soon.
