Does it really matter? If we're just talking school shootings, most of the shooting is done within 10-20 feet, if not even closer. Any gun is obviously lethal at those ranges.Col Hogan wrote:houndawg wrote:

Yea, I think it would drop you...

Breaking: Maryland HS School Shooting
Sure, there isn’t that much drop off from muzzle velocity at 100 yards. Effective handgun range is more a function of accuracy than anything. 100 yards is not a good distance to engage anyone with a handgun.

I'm sure CPD still does it. The three that I went through had several very long hallways. Longer than effective handgun range, for sure. But there was cover all along them so even when we had one of our shooters with a long gun, we weren't sitting ducks while trying to engage.

Re: Breaking: Maryland HS School Shooting
Turns out the shooter SHOT HIMSELF.
The armed guard shot him in the hand. The shooter could have killed or wounded many others if he had wanted to.

I don't know if he could've killed "many others" if he'd wanted to. The fact that he did shoot himself does not mean it's not possible that the officer would've stopped him. But this was not a "mass shooting" type of event in any case. They guy just wanted to kill one girl.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth

Thanks for fixing. So 25% of adults want no guns in schools. Appreciate you proving my point for me. Is there a thread you've already won for which you want confirmation from a trusted news source?

Plenty of people on both sides support “sensible gun reform”
But that means different things to different people
the teenage messiahs from FL have made sure that “sensible gun reform”, in most minds, lies somewhere between total 2A repeal and bans on just about anything that isn’t single shot.
In a couple years the left is going to be navel gazing over why calling people baby murderers doesn’t make people want to cross the aisle

Hmmm...another instance of an armed officer confronting gunman, and nobody killed in the school.
We're 2/2 so far since Parkland. But the Parkland officer was a coward and all cops are cowards so it just won't work, right dback??
