    'It was about guns': Survivor who hid in closet for two hours blasts response to Florida massacre
    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/201...t-two-hours-blasts-response-florida-massacre/


    This was in response to air-head who (uses Obamacare), Tomi Lahren, making dumb comments on the shooting.

    "Our thoughts and prayers are with the loved ones of the victi.....nevermind lets bash them because of politics!"

    Funny though! -- the cartoon not the tragic event.

    Kids will be copycatting Columbine for the rest of history. Nothing will ever change that.

    So the little babe hid in a closet for 2 hours to evade the shooter.

    That's how the first mammalian rat-like ancestors of all the rest of us and of our dogs and cats survived the dinosaurs as well.

    It worked then and it should still work now.

    She is right

    We should create laws that make certain areas places where guns canot be taken into that place whatsoever. Schools are oviously one of these spots.

    I am a fan of gun control on collge campus', we should create a law that makes them a "gun free zone"

    Responses to grave mortal danger are:

    1 - fight

    2 - flight

    3 - freeze

    4 - Stockholm syndrome.

    Hiding is akin to flight and then freeze. She ran, hid, and froze in a closet.

    As for me, with my pistol with me at all times, and this kid having an AR-15 type carbine, I would use some combination of hide and seek to fight him.

    The AR outguns my pistol. So I would need some element of surprise in my favor to counter that.

    Maneuver and outflanking the shooter would be the best bet. Stealth and quiet would be the key.

    Try to stealthily creep within pistol range (in this case 25 yards or less) on the shooter's flank to overcome the advantage of firepower that the carbine has.

    Of course teens are not allowed to have guns at their schools anywhere.

    Better security is what all these schools need.

    Why didn’t Democrats pass gun control when they controlled Congress in Obama’s first term?

    So if we made these types of guns illegal, things like this wouldn't happen? Isn't murder already illegal? What about things like meth?

    Sorry, just showing how stupid it sounds that anyone thinks we can stop a psychotic madman with a law.

    no, you wouldn't do ****, because you're the kind of person that fantasizes about defeating a mass shooter on the internet, and people who can actually do something about a mass shooter don't feel the need to talk about it

    Yes indeed, we should base gun policy on the feelings of a scared out of her mind little girl.

    How could this happen in a gun free zone? Shouldn't the shooter follow the law?
