Does anyone else feel that the military like presence in a situation like this is overdone!


I almost feel that the kids will be additionally traumatized by all the heavy arms, trucks
and equipment after the situation has ended and has been Declared Safe....DECLARED SAFE!
Get those Guys outta there and bring in non uniformed personnel to deal with aftermath...

Get all that crap out of there and set it up miles away from school.I know MSM loves
all that action....but use your heads... Think of the parents and kids.
