True fact that. But in a bad situation, a less bad situation is better. The bad guy had control for over 3 hours. Hell if everybody just threw their cell phones at the guy he could have been overtaken with fewer casualties. Waiting 3 hours while texting your last few thoughts is beyond the pale. When the bad guys figure out the success this has had they will come with a dozen gunmen next time and take over a dozen venues. They will hit and run in Gorilla fashion. Neither the Police nor the Army can stop them. The only way to limit this kind of attack is through the use of neighborhood Militias. Regular family men ready to grab their weapon and run into the firefight. It doesn't matter if its a Muslim Terrorist, or a Christian Terrorist, or a horde of Barbarians. Once they are coming down your street it is too late to call the police or the Army. The Army is there to keep them away not help you. The police are there to get them after they leave. Protect Yourself and Neighbor.
