kallend 2,112 #201 February 26, 2010 I still have yet to see a post of yours that suggests any remedy for the clearly established problem of drunks and nutters with guns, and lots of posts that oppose anyone else's suggestions. And suggesting "allow guns on campus" won't do anything for folks like the 4 armed cops in WA gunned down by a nutter, or the parents of the DZ.COM poster girl for CCW....

I tend to sit the farthest from the door in public places.. and NEVER with my back to the door.

When someone is being sketchy.. you can see it in their eyes and body language. Jesus Christ, how horrible that sounds Going to a (nice) restaurant means the fllw to me: Having a nice seat, hopefully a beautiful view over the illuminated town - great food, great service, wonderful music in the background and someone I love in front of me ..... Beeing under a pressure to watch at everybody's movements around me would just make me mad. Same at public places, airports, train stations: How could I live in peace and fulfil my daily requirements if PERMANENTLY, I have to be in full attention that, perhaps, someone close to me is *being sketchy* ????? If a *drunken sailor* is crossing my fairway, OK, I just let him pass and go my way. But, beeing in a need of watching everybody around me ...... no. Wow, that means stress. Amazon, if you have to *look people in the eyes ....* what, how the f*ck are you enjoying life on earth? In public places, in crowded places ?? *Situational awareness* IS a wonderful thing, indeed. I trust in mine. But, do not have to check it everyday and every minute of my life in public. dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
