Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Tip for mass shooters

I hope your wife appreciates that you are along to protect her, in case there is an active shooter.

Well ........ Several years ago -- and I can not recall the exact date or city -- a man armed with a handgun of some sort, went into an FBI office and started shooting. All the agents therein were seated at their desks and every agent had taken off his handgun and locked it in a drawer in his desk. (After all, who needs to wear a heavy handgun while working in a safe FBI office? )

Everyone was diving for cover and trying to find the proper key on his key ring for his desk drawer. Finally, one of the agents managed to retrieve his pistol and either shot the perp or took him into custody. I do not remember the particulars on this story and perhaps someone here can fill in some info or correct me. As I mentioned, it was quite a few years ago.

I remember that procedures for agents who worked in FBI offices were changed.

FWIW.

L.W.

Now are we talking full size shotgun shells or minis? Ive heard you can fire til tomorrow with a tube full of minis

Spent too much time in hospitals lately, from here to Pittsburgh, they have a sign no
metal detector. I'm armed.


Have a friend who is an x-ray tech, she finds guns all the time.
Security secures them if it's an impaired patient or one to be admitted/transferred.
She let's the patient secure them if it's just pics and go, along with a, "You aren't supposed to have that in here, we can both get in trouble".

Awhile back she had a 70some year old woman carrying a handgun in a holster.
"honey i'm 7x years old, i ain't leaving my house without it"!



For 22 years I've been waiting for the obvious terrorist mass shooting.

Simultaneous mass shootings on a high school sporting event,
football would be perfect. One or two on movie theaters or malls at the same time.
Paducah, Decauter(pick one), some county of under 50k...middle America,
cities many either never heard of or know nothing about.

Forget NY, DC, LA!

Not that many people live there, overall.
Scare middle America, Nowheresville RFD.
If it can happen in Dothan, or Dillon, or Berlin, it can happen
anywhere, anytime.

and the mass thieves never rob a bookstore!

Even the security in our local hospitals are unarmed old fat guys

I feel that any public place that hangs these signs, should be responsible for the safety that they are removing from the public...by hiring a number of paid armed guards per customer/visitor.

I also feel that every school in America should have two local Sheriff's posted during the school day. The Sheriff's should be regular deputies that just do like a week rotation - like a watch bill - at the local school, so as not to generate complacency. Anyone who says that this is unaffordable should just look at the number of larda$$ administrators already employed...their salaries could be redirected for Sheriff reimbursement.

YMMV

I never ever subscribe to that commie schit.

How would any of you feel if someone shot up a hospital because they learned about them being gun free zones from this thread?

Kinda reminds me of, "I sure hope noone notices our guard is down at this location at this time" crap.

Why do you feel a need to broadcast it?

RC that is the piss poorest post you ever made.

Hospital local to me has a metal detector to get into the er.

"gun free" is just another way of saying "free fire".

Once upon a time I worked in a "gun free" (district policy) zone (public school) when a certain person exhibited certain behaviors.

I susoect the Principal (a former Miss Alaska) also took a precationary measure.... but we never discussed it. She was a career beast, but still... NO-BODY F'KED WITH THE KIDS.

I kept a bat beside my desk for show.... pay no attention to what's in the drawer

Were you packing?

It’s ok, we will preserve your anonymity.

I couldn't see it....

Wonder how many scalpels are in that hospital.... Someone can do a lot of damage with one of those....especially when they stitch you up and leave the surgical sponge inside!

I’m pretty sure hospitals in Florida have always been illegal for concealed carry, even with a permit .

Illegal or hospital policy? Asking for a friend named Eli Dicken...

Gun free zone doesn’t seem to be working out very well for the post office.

Yeah, my local Walmart has a sign allowing concealed carry but not open carry. However, if someone is open carrying they apparently don't hassle the person. t least I haven't seen anything. However, there always seems to be a couple of Sheriff's deputies on duty especially on weekends when half of Nogales Mexico it there shopping. i hate like hell having to there on a weekend but sometimes I just have to do it. Friday's has all the welfare types as well and they spill over in the weekend.
