Prison Standoff

Want to hear a funny joke? There’s this guy at this maximum security prison a few blocks from my house who managed to steal a gun from a guard then kill three guards, wound several others and still manage to stay alive for over 18 hours now.

Makes you wonder, what is there to negotiate? He’s still in jail, he’s down to about how many bullets and yet still manages to keep over 400 inmates, 200 police and the media circus at the palm of his hands. Silly SWAT team… Silly “No negotiations” government…

Anyway, traffic going home is a mess but besides that, there’s this really funny logic going around that I stupidly did not catch.
