[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3785170, member: 8862"] Years ago I was flipping TV channels and on the old "Hawaii Five-O" TV show, they were afraid a witness or somebody would get assassinated at the courthouse. Some big wig was giving Steve McGarrett hell, saying "We've got to have 100 percent security!" or some such. In one of the few realistic moments of a TV cop show, Steve McGarrett told the big wig to pound sand. He said basically "In that old court house? With all those entrances and exits? And all the windows and glass doors? NO! You build a new courthouse, designed for security, and then we'll talk about it!" And look at courthouses today. Somebody said, we spend all that money (armed security, metal detectors, etc) to protect a bunch of lawyers. BTW, I seem to remember reading that the punk in Newtown, Conn. weighed 112 pounds (per autopsy report, I believe). Doors were locked at the elementary school there and he shot out the glass to gain entry. [/QUOTE]
