It was reported on the news last night that the newly elected Sheriff is seeking input from the community on how to deal with crime in our area more effectively, so I just can’t pass up a request like that without sounding off.
One of the great features about flying post 911 security wise, is that potential hijackers never know when they board the plane, if there will be a team of highly trained Federal Air Marshals in plain clothes who are totally undetectable riding on that plane. Air Marshals have to go through intense firearms training in live scenarios to insure total accuracy if they discharge their weapon at 30,000 feet. In other words, they will always shoot a tight accurately placed group no matter what the situation or conditions. It seems that we are having more and more armed robberies on restaurants that fall within certain regions of the city, which poses a serious threat to the law abiding citizens who frequent these establishments. Why not have a floating team of operators who are qualified as expert marksman with pistol (I am sure our SWAT operators would qualify) who go from restaurant to restaurant during certain time frames posing as customers, who are prepared to deal with such incidences should they occur. There is a certain psychological value to such an operation, because most Domestic Urban Terrorists prefer unarmed victims so that they can be in total control of the situation because like rape, armed robbery is also about power and control. The perpetrators will suddenly find themselves in a situation where they will have no option but to comply immediately or deadly force will be utilized in a surgical fashion. After a few of the armed robbers have their careers halted by this select team while at the same time being reported heavily in all of the news media outlets including print, I have a suspicion that the number of incidences would decline very quickly.
