Dead stabber removed from Ohio State University Campus

I was responding to your post asking if students are more qualified than students. I mean if we live in a fantasyland where we believe trained men are always there at the right time, I would love a Navy Seal always there with an MP5-SD armed

Yeah, like I say, you missed the point. It had nothing to do with trained men being there at the right time. It had to do with trained men not being able to successfully defend themselves against unexpected attacks.

More Rumors Started by Clinton Staffers

Not only does this Slate article from 2008 address the Somali dress issue, but it reminds readers that staffers for Hillary’s campaign had begun circulating rumors that Obama was actually a Muslim.

“But the more fitting precedent was set by other Hillary Clinton staffers earlier in the campaign,” Slate reported, adding that two employees had been forced to resign “after they proliferated rumors that Obama was a Muslim.”

Ha! Hillary just didn't know what constituted a Natural Born Citizen.

Psst! MarAzul! Election is over, your guy won.

This country really needs better car and knife control laws.

No way, cars need to be left one for at least another 10 years. Crashes make me money.

Self driving cars need to be delayed.

And? So....what is your argument here? That legal citizens should not have guns to protect themselves with because cops can't defend themselves against ambush-style attacks?

If that is your argument, then it's a pretty ridiculous one.

This is Trump's one strongpoint, he won't bring these kinds

Jesus, are these people even human beings with brains?

They're like a fat girl who's mom picked on her mercilessly for eating too much. One day a skinny girl gives her a funny look for ordering 4 big macs and she snaps.

From then on anyone that so much as looks her way is fatphobic. It is human nature I suppose.

This one smashes a scale and almost has a stroke at the end...read the comments. It wouldn't be funny if she wasn't delusional.

Luckily for me, then, that isn't my argument.

My argument is that your argument is pretty ridiculous - you argue that if the college students were armed, they would have been able to protect themselves. The experience of the dead cops suggests that to be incorrect.

The primary difference between the scenarios you're connecting is that these individual cops who are targeted are generally targeted because they are alone; that is, there is nobody else with them to respond to the attacker. If in a group of people, some are armed, then there will be others aside from the first one attacked who would be able to respond to the threat. Defensive weapons facilitate not only defense of self, but also defense of others.

It's more than that, Platypus. Something barfo isn't considering is that Cops are marked; that is, they are essentially walking targets. Their uniforms and patrol cars are all targets; a "shoot me first" beacon, basically.

Whereas legal citizens exercising concealed carry are very low-key and usually blend in with their surroundings and the general populace.

THAT is the difference. If you're a criminal, you can't just walk up and shoot someone without seeing their gun. If you don't know who's armed, who are you going to target?

That is why cops have more of a risk of getting killed than the average armed citizen. Never-mind the fact that they are required to run towards a fight; whereas civilians are not.
