Where does she work that she needs a panic button? Wouldn't a handgun be preferred? When seconds count the cops are only about 15-20 minutes away, if they don't get in a TC before they get there.

Vague. I get it.

Special forces, eh? Half of them are impressive as hell. The other half I wonder how the hell they got in, never mind got through.

As you may recall... I worked with them a l'il bit... Some of those dudes are just plain badass. Some of them just got through the training. Methinks the ones playing security guard just got through the training. The ones that were badass are doing much cooler sheit. 🇨🇮
