OTOH, if he had been carrying a knife instead, there is a chance that 3 or 4 husky guys could have cornered him in a corner for a while, thus slowing down if not stopping his rampage of death. >[Boris' thoughts snipped.] Boris, your writings are total bunkum. It's easy to sit behind a computer keyboard after the fact and slam everybody else for doing nothing. If you had been there, I doubt if you would have done anything either. If you had, you likely wouldn't be sitting there ranting away at your keyboard either. Perhaps you've been watching too many Rambo or McGyver movies if you think that an unarmed civilian is going to stop a madman with a gun. Get out of your ivory tower and wake up to the real world. -- ##### |\^/| Colin R.
