Active Shooter - What to Do
 

The latest 'Weekly Update' from Fairfax County, VA:

Whether it’s an incident like Wednesday’s shooting in San Bernardino, Calif., or you
are in the checkout line at the mall or drafting an email in your cubicle – what
would you do if you heard gun shots and realized an active shooter was nearby?

Just like in any other emergency situation, the best thing you can do is to be
prepared with information on what to do next.

Take a few minutes to review the three options that will help you to quickly
determine how to protect yourself.

Run
If there is an escape route, attempt to evacuate.

Leave your belongings behind.
Follow instructions of responding emergency personnel.

Hide
Hide in an area out of the active shooter’s view.

Block entry to your hiding place and lock the doors.
Send a text message to 9-1-1 if you’re able, but ensure your safety first.

Fight

As a last resort and only when life is in imminent danger.

Attempt to incapacitate the active shooter.
Act with physical aggression and throw items at the active shooter.


If you can't run, and you can't hide, then attempt to incapacitate the shooter. How?
I'd suggest shooting the son of a bitch.

Of course, the liberals would rather you point at him and go 'BANG'.

Fortunately for everyone, you don't carry, because if you did with your
infirmities, you'd end up shooting innocent bystanders.

Comments like that made on the Internet are probably left unsaid.
You may find yourself on somebody's "watch list".

ISIS maybe? If I can't run and can't hide, and I'm armed, you'd best believe I'd
shoot. Hit a bystander, as Krause says...well, what the hell is the active shooter
doing if not shooting innocent bystanders?

That is typical northeastern liberal thinking. There is a bill working
it's way through the Florida legislature strengthening the Stand Your
Ground Law.
There are sheriffs encouraging people to carry if they have the
license in light of these terrorists.

BTW the "fight if you have to" plan is becoming more popular with
programs like ALICE. The fight plan includes causing a chose and
throwing everything you can find at the shooter

I seem to remember someone here suggesting that and being ridiculed

Not by me. Anything to distract the shooter is better than being a
stationary target.

I don't know how you can consider being careful of what you say in
social media and other Internet forums as being "typical northeastern
liberal thinking". The issue is nation-wide.

Sheriffs encouraging people to carry is one thing. I don't think they
are promoting that you advertise that you carry and that you'd shoot
someone with it.

I think it's better for criminals and terrorists to have to guess who
is armed and who is not. For that reason I wouldn't advocate "open
carry". Let them guess.

I would like anyone thinking of shooting up a bunch of folks to consider that a lot
of those folks may be carrying and not afraid to shoot back.

Criminals might be watching rec.boats. might be wise not to advertise
weapons stashes and carry status.
