Playing civilian Monday morning quarterback here, but it seems to me that well trained, armed civilians could possibly have stemmed some of this attack - or at least held it off until the professionals arrived.
I'm an advocate for this in the US, especially now with the threats against our mass transit. The younger Zens are both taking Metro North separately upstate today. Think I'm not worried? ZMCette takes the train to school and home every day, plus an extra six trips to her job three days a week.
I also saw that a Chabad Lubavitch rabbi and his wife were taken hostage and authorities don't know if they're okay. Does this mean that the Islamofacists were targeting Jews?
