GUNS: “Slow action” not the root cause

Slow action faulted in Virginia Tech massacre

Virginia Tech was too slow to inform staff and students about a shooting incident in April that rapidly spiralled into the bloodiest campus massacre in US history, an investigation concluded Wednesday.

Sorry, but the root cause was disarming those who wanted to defend themselves. They would have been in a position to defend the others.

Numbers I’ve read that about 10% of any large group will be armed if allowed to be.

(Based on my readings. I remember the Church break in story where the congregation of thirty people had three CCW holder in the crowd. And, the story where the down cop was protected by one armed bystander of about ten. It feels like its about 10% although on a raw number basis from permit issued versus the entire population in a subset indicates it could be higher.)

So of that class of thirty students where the bulk of the killing occurred, it would not be unreasonable to expect that there might be as many as three potential defenders. And, the gallant teacher that was killed! Surely he might have had a weapon given his life experience.

So, liberal disarm the population and then are astonished when bad things happen.

Imagine if one of those good kids was a “law breaker”. Imagine if he said “<insert favorite bad word here> it! I’m not going to be a sheep!”. Imagine the expression of surprise on the bad guys face if he had to face return fire! Assuming that our two lawbreakers were in that situation, who might be the better shot?

When they arrested our sheep dog for carrying an illegal weapon, who on the jury would say “no you should have died with the other 29”?

And, we wonder why the bumper stickers say “Better judged by 12 than carried by 6”.

So these delusional bureaucrats will blame “slow action” when the real problem was disarmament. Let’s sprinkle some sheep dogs in the flock of sheep and give the wolves a little surprise. If the bad guys are as cowardly as research tells us, we’ll see a huge drop in violet crime. There’s no profit in it. Guess wrong and you’re dead!

From an earlier blog post:

I particularly like unlimited concealed carry. If the criminal regards the general public as sheep to be shorn, then let’s sprinkle in a few “sheepdogs” with big teeth in the flock.

Guess which gay to bash? Buzz, wrong, you picked a Pink Pistol and you’re dead!

Guess which woman to bash? Buzz, wrong, you picked a Paxton Quigly and you’re dead!

Guess which brown person to bash? Buzz, wrong, you picked a Massad Ayoob and you’re dead!

Overlay that strategy on the VT shootings and we might have a much better out come.

Remember another bumpersticker — dial 911 and die!
