It sounds like this was a planned "hit" and the shooters had a great advantage.
That's not saying that if the attack happened against me or my family, I wouldn't respond to try to save us.
I agree with MichaelJ, make sure you and yours survive. |
Maybe not, but dont you think if someone fired a few shots into the van that was shooting the kids, it would not shake them up, and send them speeding away as fast as they could drag their sorry asses? I dont expect one guy to take out 3-4 shooters, but i dont think they sound like the kind of people who like to risk much, as soon as they would be shot at, i'd think they would be out of there!!
