Nope said this two or three pages back
 
Um...you can clearly see he's not using blanks.  The first shot knocks some stuff off the desk and the second shot gets lodged in the floor.

Had to be blanks in that gun, even the school board member said so. Him shooting himself is a spin job by the police
This is what I believe.

"My guys had three-ring binders and pencils to protect themselves, so I whacked him with the purse, hoping I could get him to drop the gun. Obviously that didn't work. I did not have a Plan B."


I don't care how she looked doing it, or if the plan worked or not...Ginger gets MAJOR props for even attempting to thwart the shooter. She's got more fortitude than most people out there...

I think this is only said because of hind sight. 

What if Ginger hit him he looks at her and puts two in her head.

Then everything goes down the same. AKA no one killed. Or even worse. Guy wasn't there to kill anyone and he just pulls trigger on himself. Then her life was wasted for no reason. Just to play hero?

But its a he said she said situation. Always makes me think of 9/11. If everyone would have acted like ginger then this may have never happened.

Maybe it is only hindsight, but I do believe what she said....the fact that she was released and THEN came back in to try to disarm the shooter leads me to believe that her comments were indeed her thought process during the whole ordeal. It wasinsanely stupid, but noble.The attempt was feeble, but she at least tried to do something...yeah, she was about "that life," which is more than what we can say about a lot of people if they were in that same situation.
She's an idiot cut and dry. You never, EVER step in front of a gunman. Lol @ being about that life. There's nothing noble about thwarting a gunman off with your purse.

It's foolish, dangerous, and rather selfish because she could have potentially instigated the gunman into firing. She initiated the violence. Think about that.

I see it differently....like I said...it was INSANELY stupid, but I do see the nobility in what she did especially after reading herquote.



^This is the sad reality of what could happen when trying to play hero...

^Bingo. If she would've gotten bodied, we'd all be in hear saying what an idiot she was for even attempting...

I can laugh knowing nobody other than the gunman was hurt. It looks like he fired 4 shots total. First at the man who he had issues with and missed, once toward the ground and then two which were probably back at the security guard who had hit him. It seems like his issues were bigger than just his wife getting fired, it's a good thing he's a poor shot though.

It was definitely brave of that woman to make an attempt but also stupid. Did she REALLY think she was gonna stop him? Pretty honorable of the head of the board to try to delay him as much as possible and to attempt to get him to allow the other board members to leave. It seemed like mentioning that the gunman was essentially committing suicide is what set him off.

my heart was RACING as I watched that. I can't believe only the gunman died.

take it from someone who's been held at gunpoint... you have NO idea what you will do, think, or say until it happens to you.
