DocT and I worked in a hospital in upstate SC where these were a near weekly ocurance. I cant recount the number of times someone made there way into the ER or the trauma bays carrying a firearm to finish off what they started, threaten the staff, or attempt to kill one or more of us for their loved one dying.

As you stated Sid, the security in hospitals for the most part was and still is useless. Its past time for us to become responsible for our own security instead of entrusting it to those who are no more capable than the average citizen.

Now if I could find a way to carry on the ambulance once I return home I would be in business...
