Because I’ll tell you something. If there aren’t men willing to take out an active shooter barricaded in a room executing little kids? An average mom with ZERO police experience would consider taking a dive through a window to at least try to take the psychopath out.

The danger of lying too much.

I miss heroic official behavior. Also rule breaking for the greater good.
Can you imagine being abandoned and seeing a chopper coming to our pick you up piloted by actual Americans who remember what the hell that means...rather than whatever is tearing us apart?
