    If you can't get a handle on the killings, at least let's try to patch up the wounded...

      Perhaps the cases used in the wall mount are jacking up the cost. Or maybe the labor to install the kits is part of the price. But it still doesn't look like $500's worth of stuff to me. It looks like maybe someone got a nice inflated contract.

        Well, it would be cheaper to have marksman kits, so you have less wounded to treat...

          Do you think Ms. Showalter has visited Chicago in the last 2-5 years?

          I was only joking

            I think she travels to lands exotic and unknown from the comfort of her armchair.

              Again, why not address the ludicrousness of medic kits?

                Because it's QED, I guess? I mean, okay, I'm glad they have them because obviously they're going to need them, but I don't see how you can rationally argue that this is a solution to anything. I mean this is almost literally a band-aid on a gunshot wound.
