Let's Roll

Another Mass Shooting

Another mass shooting and we have innocent, unarmed people dead because only one guy was armed and committed. I have never been in the circumstance, thankfully, and hope to never experience that. But I have determined, before hand, that if anything like that happens I am rushing the shooter.

What if he shoots me? What if I lie down like a sheep and he shoots me anyway. I want to be moving. Ever hear of Rasputin, the Russian monk? His assassins beat, shot, stabbed, and poisoned him. He finally died, but he did a lot o damage in the mean time. If someone starts shooting, I will lead the rush. If nothing else it will distract him and either let someone else subdue him or others escape.

Are Americans so docile or self-centered that they will not “risk” anything to stop a tragedy? We hear of people rushing into burning buildings or other dangerous situations to save someone. What is the difference?

Three air liners flew into buildings with seemingly no resistance. One flew into the ground, completely missing its intended target. I want to be on the “Let’s roll,” plane.
