Michigan university to fight active shooters with hockey pucks
BY ANN LAURICELLO
ROCHESTER, Mich. — A university in Michigan is using an unconventional weapon to help in an active shooter situation.
Officials at Oakland University are handing out hockey pucks to students and teachers.
The school has a no-weapons policy, so the university police chief suggested using hockey pucks to distract a shooter.
According to the Detroit Free Press, the pucks are also part of a campaign to raise funds to install interior locks on classroom doors. The pucks are imprinted with a number that people can enter on the university's website to donate money toward the new locks.
Officials say fighting with a hockey puck should be the absolute last line of defense.

This will probably get a few people shot.

So they don't know you don't bring a knife to a gun fight. :rolleyes:
There's no cure for stupid.
It's going to take a whole helluva lot of stick time to make that effective.
So Michigan university has no money for interior locks? But their handing out hockey pucks to students and teachers. Damn that will keep the kids safe, in a no gun zone. :rolleyes:

Some damn good salesman must have had a garage full of old hockey sticks that he wanted to get rid of. I must remember, if I need to sell some worthless crap, find a liberal school.
