Me, too.

But the forum is listed out to the right side of the post link. You just have to get yourself in the habit of noticing it.

It goes back to that whole mindset thing. When children become involved, I think, a woman armed with nothing but her teeth and fingernails becomes a lot more dangerous than a BG with a gun (in short range, anyway). She's a lot more determined to make sure the kids don't get hurt. Kind of like that teacher at the VT shooting that tried to buy time for the kids in his classroom by standing in front of the door.
