M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'

M: No it isn't!

There are some that are gooder than others
Is the Dolly Llama more gooder?
Llamas are good, but they don't use guns. Their hoofs can't work the trigger.

I'd guess two things were in play. First, the police were simply afraid of being shot.
Second, there's a sort of paralysis when a group is hit with the need to make a quick decision, and no one will risk it. I saw that happen while fighting wildfires.

New Rule: Hollywood's Culture of Violence

100% agree! That and video games, too.
I wonder which came first, my pacifism or my preference for b/w comedies of the '20s-'40s. The only violent movies I've ever been into were the Bruce Lee/Sonny Chiba/Jackie Chan/Kurosawa martial arts movies...which didn't have guns. The gangster, war, and crime movies I watch the most of are pre-1960, when the violence was implied or brief. Up to the age of 20, males (I can't speak for females) want to emulate their silver-screen heros. That's why I developed a Groucho-like sense of humor (and without a laughing delivery).
