Vanity - Need Help Finding Old Post

Posted on 02/02/2016 10:52:25 AM PST by tv_techie

Help!

I'm doing research on improving our security at work. I'm trying to find an article posted here a couple of years ago.

Someone put a lot of effort in to find out the difference in victim count when people waited for police to show up and end a mass shooting vs people on site taking action to end a shooting. I remember there being fewer victims when people didn't wait for the police.

Thanks in advance!

Google searches can specify a particular web site, like so:

Probably not the one you're after, but possibly of interest and certainly related:

TTAG did an experiment post-sandy-hook that may have been the one you were looking for:

I can’t believe how fast you found that! That’s the one - I spent a long time searching to no avail as I couldn’t remember the title.

Thanks!

I'll have to remember that for the future. I was evidently only searching titles via the Free Republic search.

That looks interesting. I’ll have to review it in detail.

Thanks!
