Media Just Embarrassing Itself Over the "Broward Coward"

JJ Sefton noted the report that the sheriff's deputy assigned to protect the Parkland school did nothing for six minutes during the rampage.

The cuck media is taking this a proof that "good guys with guns can't stop gun crime," not realizing that 1, this guy was actually a paid agent of the state and therefore 2, if paid agents of the state specifically assigned to carry guns to defend citizens won't do so, then 3, it's up to every private citizen to arm himself in order to protect himself.

John Harwood, who no one ever accused of not being a fucking retard, drooled thus:

so it turns out a good guy with a gun was there, with sheriff�s dept training no teacher will ever have, and he didn�t stop the bad guy with a gun — John Harwood (@JohnJHarwood) February 22, 2018

You probably don't think you are, but you're actually making the point for citizens being armed to protect themselves. https://t.co/KWZHZ1BClS — terry schappert (@terryschappert) February 23, 2018 Civilians could never stop a shooter, so only cops should have guns.



The cop failed, and also only cops should have guns.

Also big on this claim is human soft-boiled egg Chris Cillizza:

There was a "good guy with a gun" at Stoneman Douglas High School.https://t.co/3qBr3ZcJr6 — Chris Cillizza (@CillizzaCNN) February 23, 2018





No, he wasn't a "good guy with a gun," a shorthand expression for a private citizen with a gun. He was paid state agent and a cop who, reports say, chose to cower instead of doing the job taxpayers used to pay him to pretend to do.

Now, if you think that's dumb, and I'm pretty sure you do, well, here's even dumber.

Famous MSNBC tough-guy Lawrence O'Donnell, who uses a shitty Southie accent when he wants to fake-challenge people to fights on TV (ps, Lawrence, I'm game), has an interesting explanation as to why a citizen's handgun would be useless against an AR-15:

Lawrence: A bullet fired from an AR-15 travels 3x faster than one from a handgun.



And yet the president and the NRA think giving teachers guns will stop a school shooter https://t.co/heze69kRDU — MSNBC (@MSNBC) February 23, 2018





I'm not a Super-Expert on guns, but I rather think the AR-15's superior accuracy (longer barrels fire straighter shots; heavier barrels jump less from recoil) would be a factor in a pistol-vs.-rifle fight, but I don't think mere bullet speed would count all that much.

Not even factoring in the speeds of light and sound, any caliber round fired from any weapon will close a 100' gap between the shooter and the target before the target's brain has even registered that there was a shot fired.



These people are incredibly dumb. — Eric Spencer (@JustEric) February 23, 2018





By the way, the guy with the pistol had an immense advantage over the shooter: He knew about the shooter, and he knew about where the shooter was (from the sounds of gunfire), but the shooter didn't know about him or where he was.

Now, it seems he was out taking a well-deserved smoke break, but had he been doing his job, he would have cautiously approached the shooter from a behind sort of angle and taken the not-so-difficult trick shot of shooing someone unaware right in his fucking back.

I'll have to check with Lawrence O'Donnell about how muzzle velocity would factor into that sort of an attack.

Oh, thanks to Commenter, former minor author Joyce Carol Oates wants to know why a paid guard armed with a mere "conventional" weapon could possibly be expected to do his job and shoot someone armed with an "AK-15."

how could a single school guard, armed with a conventional weapon, expect to confront & "kill" an individual w/ AK-15 who has methodically plotted an attack? isn't this demanding of the guard that he sacrifice his life? would NRA pay his widow a bonus? — Joyce Carol Oates (@JoyceCarolOates) February 23, 2018





Oh, by the way, the Weekly Cuck has an editorial out:

This is an embarrassingly weak attempt, full of straw men and red herrings, to justify leaving students and teachers defenseless. I�m surprised it wasn�t run by Mother Jones. https://t.co/6CLZkz4ZJ2 — Sean Davis (@seanmdav) February 23, 2018









States and municipalities may wish to try different policies, but arming so many teachers across the nation would increase the danger, not alleviate it. School shootings are a problem, but the odds of any one school being attacked is still, thankfully, minuscule. Put a gun in the classroom, and it might well become like Checkhov's gun: Eventually, somebody's going to use it.

Oh, how literary. Someone's very proud of having remembered a quote usually taught in the ninth grade.

What did I tell you? As they drop their masks and work to make themselves employable by the liberal magazines they've always secretly craved employment at, gun rights will be the first issue they'll "evolve" on -- but it won't be the last.

Oh: Checkhov? I missed this:

Maybe the Weekly Cuck shouldn't be that proud of their ninth-grade-drama-appreciating reference.
