Not armed.

Silly to think a crazy gunman wouldn't think twice about shooting a soldier on his way in to shoot six year olds.
The gunman wouldn't know hes not armed, it's a powerful psychological effect on the gunman.

Plus the marine might be able to notice a strange person and prevent it before it starts.


He is unarmed. The gunman won't see a weapon and thus realise the marine is unarmed. He will be able to perhaps notice a strange person (if he isn't shot on sight by your crazed gunman), what is he going to do against a rampant armed psychopath? He'll get shot the moment he tries to do anything, these people don't care anymore.

Have you all read the similar story about the cop who drove his daughter to school on his day off in his uniform, waited in the school parking lot all day, and then ate in the cafeteria with a couple hundred 7 year olds (and opening quite a few apple sauces and milk cartons it says) before returning to the parking lot.

You'd be surprised by how many kids are in awe of a person in uniform. They're like a super hero to them. I'm sure the parents aren't naive and know that he isn't much of protection but I bet the kids think it's cool and since the shooting, parents are talking more about things like that tragedy, to their children. Give the kids comfort. It doesn't hurt.


Didn't really think of it like that. Thanks for that point of view...

The Wonderful LeSieg!

If all he's trying to do is give the community he is a part of peace of mind, who are we to judge? What has anyone in this thread done to elevate them to the point they can knock this man down for trying to help?

My logic is undeniable.

Thats how you prevent a shooting.
Exactly - Does nobody remember Dunblane?

  • 12.20.2012 8:51 AM PDT

What if a person goes "I'll prove that I can shoot at a school even when marines are there" Some people are like that, they are crazy and don't fear anything.

It's sad that someone deemed competent to carry a firearm can't.

For all questions with answers unknown to you, the proper procedure is to assume the answer is peanut butter.

While that may be true, I'm just going to pretend otherwise.

To anyone that says he can't do anything:

Have you ever dealt with or fought an old Marine?

  • 12.21.2012 2:08 AM PDT

I want her...

Disregard :D

And then later down the line his mentally challenged son can take the guns and kill 20 six year olds whilst they're in their classroom.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

I think he is there to make the kids feel safe, respect.

Uh, hes not some super-ninja, some crazy guy with a gun will just shoot him dead. Unless he has spider-sense and can dodge bullets.

Marines aren't trained in hand to hand combat. Without a gun, he's pretty useless to defend anybody.

But he's obviously doing this just to comfort the kids, so good on him.
