We're the Only Ones Dealing with Medical Issues Enough

Police sealed off a Braintree neighborhood for more than an hour when an armed Boston police captain dealing with “medical issues” barricaded herself in her home.
Huh, The second "Only One" standoff this week.

Perhaps being more trustworthy than the rest of us is too much of a strain...still, I'm glad she was who she was. Otherwise, this could have ended in tragedy.

My definition of "tragedy" was met.

Well, it could have been worse, if the police hadn't responded as they did and shown super-human restraint...

She might have shot herself in the head, set herself on fire and run herself over with a tank! It could have rivaled the worst cases of "suicide" on record!
