GoSkins561 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I'm sure we have all heard this story by now, after seeing the bunker, how are they going to safely get the kid out? Is there some type of gas that would slowly put both of them to sleep without harming the kid? http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/01/us/alabama-child-hostage/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.C.O.L.B. Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Didn't the Russians use gas when the Chechens took over that theater? Was supposed to just put everyone to sleep (they went in and shot all the Chechens--many strapped with bombs--while they slept) but it was too powerful and killed like 100 of the hostages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC9 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 If that was my kid I would've sat outside with a thermal scope watching them for a few hours and then shot the dude/dudes when I picked my spot. It's now wonder that state is 49th in public school education. Holy **** man. This is getting redic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactitle Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 This is a scary deal. I hope and pray this ends well for that child. This man is apparently deranged which does not bold well for the outcome. The only positive is that it is still ongoing so please pray for this kid and family.

Dan T. Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I heard a quote from an Alabama official earlier today that they strongly hope that some sort of bond is established between the boy and Dykes since they've been holed up together in such a confined space for so long, so that it would be tougher for him to harm the boy. He also said that blankets, toys, and coloring books and crayons have been delivered, which to me is a good sign... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSkins561 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 I'm 99 percent positive this jackass isn't going down alive, could they pump a bunch of chloroform ino the pipe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autoidiodyssey Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I think the problem with using a gas would be that the amount needed to knock out a grown man is much larger than the amount needed to affect a small child. You run the risk of hurting the child. Plus if the guy has a bunker he probably has a gas mask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Confessing that I'm monumentally ignorant about this situation. But my usual reaction in these things is that I really want the cops to be patient. Unless I have evidence that says that there's something going on, in there, that's worth killing people over, then my reaction is "take all the time you want, I get paid by the hour". Again, speaking from total ignorance, and just reading the quote that's in the title of the thread? I'm with the Governor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the Russian Theater Hostage situation? The Russians used an anesthetic gas to knock everyone out and then went in and shot the bad guys. Problem was they did not have the proper medical personnel and drugs on hand to resuscitate the hostages and a many of them died. In this case I'm sure they would have the medical personnel on hand but the hostage being a 5 year old (with medical problems) complicates that.

HBnotBlades Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Wow. I'm amazed and relieved that this ended with the boy being safe. I obviously don't know how they did it, but incredible job by the officers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I would have preferred this to end with a surrender. But I don't always get what I want. And it certainly could have been worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, and I'll echo GHH's sentiments and say I hope the boy is okay, mentally and physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, who would think a flash grenade would have been used, otoh, I guess they use them all of the time on drug raids when kids are present...so I guess they are harmless.
