I learned it from NCIS!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Ginger, that's amazing response time. Wait--is that amazing response time? I also read that he was shot--did the police shoot him, or was he trying to take himself out?
I think NCIS is the only show I've seen use LEO, but krav had LEO classes, so I made myself look kinda dim by asking there. Much better (and less dim) to do so here.
Jesse, you should definitely reblog: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I kind of want to, but it's not good stuff! It's just sad stuff.

Jesse, thanks for posting that link. I've seen a few comments asking if TDKR should be pulled from theaters. That baffles me even more than the "if only someone in the audience had a gun".

Ginger, that's amazing response time.
Apparently the police station is only about three blocks away.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I usually start from news.google.com, but I notice that I read the Reuters and AP articles first.
