After evaluation, judge should send this woman to the Florida State Hospital (FSH) a hospital and psychiatric hospital in Chattahoochee, Florida. This is a place to stop mental health people running free & doing what they want to do.
It is not the gun, it’s the people using guns.

@charitable neighbors
Anyone taking potshots at people can be forgiven when they’re dead too.

Sounds like the boys in blue (well tan actually) need more time at the range.

Glad that NO ONE was killed and hopefully this woman gets the help she needs.

Maybe those of you rooting for a kill shot ought to consider the following:

And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ. – Ephesians 4:32

Thank you LEOs. You are never out of harms way and yet you must in an instant make lethal decisions. The best to you and may God Bless.

@ J. Larry Seale…I’m not sure what the current TO&E is of the FHP and the ECSO is, but I will wager there were more Deputies assigned to that zone than there were Troopers assigned to this district, which covers four counties. I would also submit that all these Troopers were probably at traffic crashes due to rush hour and wet roads. I can assure you, the help goes both ways, and is appreciated.

I am thankful all the LEO’s that were involved, that they went home to live another day. You never know what day will be your last. Think about that next time you get in your car to go get a loaf of bread, or walk to your mailbox.

@Jen is your point that ESCO are better trained, and/or have better marksmen under pressure?

@ Jen: Read the article again. ECSO was on scene.

J. Larry Seale, when any leo calls for emergency help, EVERYONE drops what they are doing to come to aid, running into gunfire or a fight, it does not matter what cover the uniform, just glad someone has your back. Special thanks to all the law enforcement putting that ballistic vest on every single day to protect our community! So thankful all officers are ok to go home to their families!
