Thoughts similar to some here on intervention. By Evan Marshall from his site, 20 yr cop in Detroit, author and currently advisor on counter terrorism to the Feds.
Shortly after the Mall situation a hostage was interviewed and expressed strong smpathy for the shooter. While most good deeds go unpunished, many do not. Careful.... it can be a jungle out there...in more ways than one.
