I'm a nerd, and guy. Ergo, I like to think that I could handle myself in a crisis situation. I actually like to think up dramatic scenarios in my head, just so I'll be ready if it happens. Some big guy will come in here drunk, unjustly accusing me of mackin' on his girlfriend, or maybe it'll be ninja, trying to infiltrate the sanctity of the modern university library. I'm pretty much prepared for these contingencies. I'm not saying that Guido the Jealous Boyfriend wouldn't be able to cold-cock me into a 50-year slumber, or that if there were ninja about I wouldn't suddenly find myself with a neurotoxin-tipped blowgun dart sticking out of my neck as I'm hitting on Guido's hot girlfriend, but I like to think that I'd be ready.
A classroom full of psychotic 3rd-graders, though? Oh yeah, I could take 'em.
It would look like the extremely pointless Neo vs. the Infinite Agents Smith in the Matrix II. I'd be knocking 8-9 year olds around like bowling pins. They wouldn't stand a chance.
Explaining to the police: "Hey! One of them had a KNIFE" might be a problem, but ...
