Be careful what you ask for, because you might get it. I have no sympathy for the man, and the people who are voicing their support are nothing but hypocrites.

This is the part I love. This part right here:

Quote
"...he called out to a Buffalo police lieutenant asking why the school was in lockdown, and that they were looking for a man with a gun.

Dwayne’s reaction was to get his kids – he had about 50 of them – and make sure they were safe,” Giles explained. “He led them into the cafeteria and closed the doors.”

followed by this:

Quote
Some of Ferguson’s supporters echoed similar criticism, saying that carrying a weapon meant Ferguson could have helped police in the event there was a gunman actually threatening students.

The concept of gun-free zones discredited and eviscerated in the most elegant fashion imaginable.


And unlike David Gregory, he won't get benefit of clergy press.

Anyone else find it curious that this was kicked off by an anonymous tip?

Bleeping hypocrite.

Reminds me of that anti-gun columnist in Washington, D.C., (Carl Rowan?) who opened fire on a skinny dipper in his backyard pool - guns were still illegal then in D.C., as this happened years before Heller.

This article says that "the police will be increasing their presence at the school for the remainder of the week."

 :laugh: So the answer to a guy with a gun is for more people with guns to drop by the school more often. I guess the NRA was right. Come to think of it, the first thing cops did when they found out there was a guy with an AR-15 at Sandy Hook, was to send more guys with AR-15s to the school.

Kind of a theme there.

No, but it hurts less with time.

After that it's a green light for school shooters.

I think that at that point I'd try to ditch the gun, come back for it later.

Could be bad if the cops found it, and it was registered to his name.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Yeah, not many secure spots to ditch a gun that wouldn't come up in a search and wouldn't lead directly back to the owner.
Plus, NY CCL? Don't they register your guns, you and the specific gun you're allowed to carry?

Depends on how many nooks and crannies there are in the school, and that as an educator, or at least somebody they trust to ride herd on the kids, he may have access to more locations to hide it in than a visitor.

Where that would be, I don't know.  As a comm guy I'd probably stuff it into a computer.
