A neat hack, I shall try to remember that.

As for Jeremiah and Jean De Arc, they were both informed of future events but with no reasons or causes attached to it that was comprehensible. At least I should be grateful I am not in their situations, since Jeremiah had to wait around 30 years for confirmation. It hasn’t even been that and America has obtained more or less confirmation. They have refused to repent, so the future cannot be changed.

Scott Robinson:

I was merely pointing out a fact I find both interesting and unusual. I don’t know what point you think I was trying to make, but actually I was merely observing something.”

Probably not relevant in a consciously and specifically motivating sense re. that target: though he was reportedly anti-Semitic. Possibly because – it has been reported – of resentment toward his own birth mother who – it has been reported – was Jewish.

That’s three “it has been reported” qualifications.

Have a good weekend ….

Yes, he did. If I were a resident of Broward County, I would want him fired right now.

My unwritten rule-of-thumb is that the competence of the Sheriff or Chief of Police is inversely proportional to the number of stars on their collar.

Four stars – really. Is he the equivalent of the chairman of the joint chiefs?

They are more dangerous to people’s pets and households that they mistake for drug running cells.

Also if you report your neighbor as a drug and child sex addict to the FBI and police, they will raid and swat him for you. Works pretty well from what I have heard.

Few Leos are going to run into a life and death battlefield where the humans and demons are rampaging around…

The retired ones are actually better at it, because they aren’t going to “need orders”.

neo: It is to weep.

It is the End of All Things, the latter days, Ragnarok, the tribulations leading to the Final Judgment.

As for me, it is not to weep.

It is ABOUT DAMN TIME. What took you guys so long up in the heavens… bring it on, whether god, demon, or angel, it’s all going to be concluded. This War has gone on for all of Eternity. It’s about time for us to settle things.

Top to bottom it seems like an awful lot of official people are doing something other than the jobs taxpayers imagine they are paying them for.

The article I just linked is somewhat ironic, because it was written shortly after Parkland and it assumes the post-Columbine protocol was followed at Parkland. But apparently the first responders (Peterson and the other three) followed the pre-Columbine approach.

It does seem to be getting worse and worse, according to recent revelations, and that Sheriff Israel ran an extremely loose ship.

It fits one definition but not another. Instead of a security guard that serves as a kind of deterrence or citizen arrest force, instead it was a cop rented out to the campus/academy/school.

They couldn’t even rent out 2 of em it seems.

Now if it was a civilian or LEO that volunteered for a particular role, it might be different. At least they might have failed by trying.

Children trained to move to either side of the door would prevent a shooter from targeting those inside by firing through the typical narrow window in most schoolroom doors.

That’s my favorite blind spot for ambushing people coming in narrow doorways. It was my default position to be in if the school I was in started suffering interesting sounds, back when Virginia Tech was in the news.

Eliminating the threat in under 3 moves or 3 seconds is feasible for an ambush attack. 5 moves or 5 seconds is probably more average and over 5 is the norm.

Efficiency is always good, since I never settled for merely mediocre speed in terminating threats. Why? Because their buddies could be behind them. They need servicing too. One can’t use the buddies of a kill team as human shields forever. The nice thing about guerilla warfare is that even if one doesn’t have firearms, it is possible to upgrade or steal enemy weapons. Perfect for a guerilla ambusher. The fundamental problem of people who lack range in lethal force is that the firearm can engage at significantly longer ranges than a brawler. The brawler has to close the range gap, which usually means they get wounded or killed or suppressed and fixed in place. For an ambush location like a class room, the kill team puts themselves into lethal range themselves. The element of surprise also helps.

Most people, trained or untrained, are at best average. They merely get into a ground tussle and wrestling match with the enemy. That’s not all that efficient. As for how long that takes, it’s not as long as one sees in UFC matches but 5seconds is more than enough time for a death squad’s buddy to see you on the ground wrestling, and shoot you in the head or butt stroke you with the stock.

Assassins that can kill, unarmed, in under 1 second is ideal. That gives little time for others to react. Since people like that are rare, normal civilians have to compensate using tools like firearms. Tools are just tools though.

Second, competency to carry and use a firearm and respond correctly to deadly situations is a result of character, training, and how a person is “wired.”

That is a determination of the powers that be whether they allow you to carry or not in a particular situation.

If one ignores or rebels against this secular power hierarchy, then they are going to have to fight off police SWAT teams serving warrants.

It doesn’t matter how much skills or how much resources a person has in an airport, because they are not allowed to do anything with any tools. First the restriction on tools, such as guns. The other is the restriction on doing anything, which is far more important but less popular in the public imagination.

When Coral Springs police officers arrived at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, on February 14 in the midst of the school shooting crisis, many officers were surprised to find not only that Broward County Sheriff’s Deputy Scot Peterson, the armed school resource officer, had not entered the building, but that three other Broward County Sheriff’s deputies were also outside the school and had not entered, Coral Springs sources tell CNN. The deputies had their pistols drawn and were behind their vehicles, the sources said, and not one of them had gone into the school.

Sheriff Israel is toast and fully deserves it.
