Fire for effect |
https://www.foxnews.com/us/fac...s-to-thwart-shooters "AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – Faculty members at Oakland University in suburban Detroit have received hockey pucks and are being trained to use them to potentially thwart active shooters. WDIV-TV reports the American Association of University Professors distributed pucks to its 800 members. University Police Chief Mark Gordon says to fight effectively, faculty and students need to be prepared to throw heavy objects that will cause a distraction. Gordon says pucks fit the bill and can conveniently be carried in brief cases or backpacks. The faculty union also is working with student groups to distribute an additional 1,700 pucks to students."

Simply put...YGTBFKM, eh hoser? "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Never bring a hockey puck to a gunfight. | |||

Just for the hell of it |
Hockey pucks hurt when they hit unpadded body parts. I had one crack the toe cap on a skate once. Definitely would not want someone throwing them at me. Using them as a means to stop a shooter is just plain stupid and will get you killed. _____________________________________ Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn.

Are they going to at least keep them frozen? Geesh...these people are stupider than a sack of hammers. "If you’re a leader, you lead the way.

I got hit in the chin with one. 3 stiches in, 4 outer. They hurt couldn't imagine being hit by a lot since I wasn't a goalie. Anyway if the are really serious they need to keep them in a freezer; extra hard! Let all Men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows.

This has merit if the shooter is a goalie. By nature he'll try and stop every puck and be so distracted by the utter elation of not being scored on he will forget why he even walked into the room. For anyone else, the shooter will be more pissed off.

Have they seen most people try to throw anything? This is beyond stupid. ______________________________ “I'd like to know why well-educated idiots keep apologizing for lazy and complaining people who think the world owes them a living.” ― John Wayne | |||

Wait, what? |
Exactly. Maybe one or two in ten will be able to generate enough velocity paired with accuracy. More misguided leftist stupidity. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

I'll take the free pucks. I can put them to much better use than the majority of these folks. I agree that probably the majority of the kids d teachers wouldn't even be able to effectively huck them at the shooter. The few that can, ost likely aren't going to incapacitate a shooter, just piss them off. ...Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, was just a freight train coming your way... | |||

Do---or do not. There is no try. |
The Red Wings are so bad that teachers throwing pucks would do better that the Wings have been doing shooting them. | |||
