I think a lot of you guys have some great concepts, but I think its safe to say that the reality of this will be totally different. I imagine that its just a matter of time until unsatifactory events that Haney perscribes to become real. Imagine this: 10-20 individuals that have no fear in death or in life, occupying a school with small children. LEO's called in, feet are dragged bc they want to wear down the captors for a dynamic entry or what have you. End result demads weren't met or they didn't have them at all and a large portion of 4-11 yearsolds are now casualties. LEO's do an about face, and as bad as they don't want to admit it they do bc political careers are on the line, and they state that they are incapable of dealing with this type of circumstance. So then its turned over to the military and composed of highly skilled/motivated qualified guys. They get a mission and they succeed in their mission. Yet six 5 yearolds get killed by bad guys. The public's perception isn't going to see that out of the 400 students that were daisy chained only 6 were killed. They're going to focus on the media and the six and piss an moan about the # 6 being too high.Hey the way society is to day one would be too much, so 6 translates to heads rolling. Then Dianne Finstein and Ted Kennedy are going to mandate that their cohort Waxman should launch an oversight investigation into the practices of these individuals and their unit. They will thus become inflexible and look at the team members as some sort of super hero’s or jedi’s that are capable of doing non mortal things. So when some thing bad does happen they will hold them accountable and a de-escalation policy would be legislated and the group would have a black eye. Heck even Kathleen Wilder (***ping! ping! on google***) of her female GB fame would be present on news sources and become an analyst for Wolfblitzer and Jane Fonda could fill the celebrity commentary. Wow if that took place just think how many front page articles the New York Times would print. I don't think were ready for that. Until then the waiting game will proceed.

Bad guys: 0
Good guys: 0

Cheers all.
