Man I love when M and N expound upon shit they know nothing about.
And somehow they did it all without guns.
Yeah dipshit. Because they didn't have guns available - or they most certainly would have used them instead. That's why this is a special story, these guys rushed an active shooter while unarmed. That's pretty much the definition of a heroic act. It's heroic not because it's common, or easy, or normal or expected to work. No, it's heroic because it working was against the odds, and the odds were it would fail and be fatal.
Had there been untrained, armed, Second-Amendment-quoting, trigger-happy "Oath-keepers" aboard instead, half the train could have been shot up.
What 'peer-reviewed' study can you cite to back this up? Oh, the journal of head up ass dipshits who know that if they had a gun the whole train would be shot up so it just has to be the same for everyone else? Yeah, read it before. Needs more "science"....and cow-bell.
Oh boy. Seems these three weren't Marines. National guardsmen from near me and an Air Force medic. Seems even that one of them is a civilian. Or, as Nikto would call him - not "trained and competent".
But but but...the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun...that's what gun cult tell me. Head all 'splodey and stuff...
Mr. makes up shit decides this is the phrase he's going go all verbatim over.
Fine. No, occasionally you can find extraordinary circumstances and extraordinarily brave persons to go up against armed persons while unarmed. I would also bet that in each case the unarmed person sure as hell would have liked to have been armed.
Ignoring that just proves the point that Mark is a moron.
This after the Virginia Tech shooting and the Norway shooting when he and Nikto weren't just criticizing those of us who wondered why no one took and active countermeasures, but openly mocked us as utter fools. Nikto made a virtue out of running for his own life and fuck everyone else. Now listen to those two yahoos. I started to reply on his site, but then realized no matter how mealy-mouthed I made sound, it could only be seen as making the hosts look bad, especially with the links to their own words and ours, so like others it would just go down the meory hole,
No matter what it takes, Marxie must always be seen to be right, even when "right" positions are diametrically opposed to one other in different comment threads. Hell, sometimes even in the same comment thread, since he seems to have trouble keeping his lies straight in his own head.
At any rate, I've just about had it with him. Since he pulled the bubble in tight behind himself, there's almost no comments (not even many mutual "attaboys" between Marxie and Nikto) that make it through the censor. Though I wouldn't be surprised if there's a sudden flurry "My God, Mark, that's so right and so funny! Everyone at the office breathlessly awaits each of your posts to see how you stick to the Right again!" sock-puppet commenters now...
Do you have links to those threads, for posterity purposes?
And yeah, it's getting pretty boring with those two. I post to illuminate, as a counter I guess, to his b.s. But why spend a lot of my time expounding upon things when all he does is lecture. Add to that it really appears that nobody reads his crap - there really is a reason that a blogger wants an active comments section, it is an indicator of how much real readership the blog has. His readership, as reflected by comments is just about zero. Of course you are right, making such an observation here is likely to promote a bunch of 'new' comments there.
Oh, and yeah - despite all the big talk from those two, I have no doubt that if they were in a similar situation they would be so behind the ooda loop that pissing themselves would be the most successful action they would accomplish.
The obvious posts of his don't have any of the comments I remember, so it must have been one of those long threads that had diverged from the original post. I started reading other posts, but then couldn't stand it anymore. And too much other stuff that needs to be done that really ought to take priority over whack-a-mole, even if it isn't as emotionally satisfying.
It is kind of weird that he has no real comments. Not even in support of his stupidity except for N who is a complete disaster. He might as well turn them off.
