I had to watch this at work today. I thought FReepers might want to take a stab at critiquing it.

Be armed, trained and situationally aware.

Lastly, don’t miss. ;)

What’s an “Active Shooter” versus an “Inactive Shooter”?

I can’t stand watching it all the way through, but I watched a half minute or so.

Very, very politically correct. Every designated minority group included in the first fifteen seconds.

More interesting—Comments are disabled.

We wouldn’t want to have anyone CRITICIZE “The Authorities” who have our welfare so much in mind.

Lucky you. I didn't have much choice while sitting next to the boss.

Maybe an inactive shooter is one who just sits there and waits for victims to come into range?

Seems like they got the order backwards. Fighting is your best option, if you have the means. Only when you are disarmed should you resort to running and hiding.

"An active shooter is defined as an individual who is actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people."

"Non-active shooter" does not currently pose a threat.

We HAD to watch these videos at work a few months ago. Then we had to take a test after.

Lawyers and insurance companies.

Most of us still have to make a living and we do it in places where the rules are made by lawyers and insurance companies.

Thus the roaring success of the ‘gun free zone’ around schools has been expanded to most stores, office buildings and other businesses.

No test for me so I dodged that bullet.

An active shooter is going around shooting victims. The alternative would be somebody that takes hostages. The protocols are different. If you use the wrong protocol for the wrong situation you can get more innocents hurt. All you need to do is listen for gunfire.

In this mall shooting last night you have a gun free zone in a fairly anti-gun state, and a perp with an illegal drug habit who stole a gun from his brother. Fortunately, he just wanted to shoot up e place and not the people. At. LAX you have another active shooter, intent on shooting people, in a gun free zone, in a an anti-gun state, with weapons he couldn't have bought in either the state he lived in or the one he was from. Both should get an active shooter response from police.

Looks like a lot of common sense... That said more people die in car accidents every day than die in Mall shooting in any given year.

Homeland is attempting to become a private army... for one man. That’s not an American concept - it’s creepy banana republic bullsh*t. Read this if you want to be creeped out about Homeland.

According to liberals, you would use the gun to shoot yourself... however this is exactly what these suicidal shooters do in many instances...

Sorry, but if someone starts shooting up the south end of my building and i can get out of the north end, I am getting out.

Even if I am armed.

I was in a shooting at my office, ESL in Sunnyvale. Those are the tips I would give someone. The only thing I would add is to try to get inside another building. Our shooter started shooting outside.
