'Run, hide, fight': Homeland Security releases public service video on how to survive mass shooting

Full Headline: 'Run, hide, fight': Homeland Security releases public service video on how to get to safety and survive a mass shooting

Following last Friday's mass casualty shooting in Aurora, Colorado, the City of Houston has released an instructional video on what to do in case of a similar emergency.

Funded by the Department of Homeland Security, the city hopes that the video can help people prepare people for the worst.

Entitled Run.Hide.Fight. Surviving an Active Shooter Event, it depicts a fictional shooting incident in a crowded office building.

In the six-minute video, a narrator warns that all shooter events are unpredictable, but there are three things that one can do to increase one's chance of survival: run, hide or fight.

'It may feel like just another day at the office,' the narrator says in the beginning of the footage. 'But occasionally,' the narrator says. 'Life feels more like an action movie than reality.'

No surprise.

I posted in several of the Aurora threads that Napilatino would recommend the same tactic/instruction she gave Border Agents: run and hide.

==

This morning on F&F, they had Border Agents who are saying the Agency is in such disarray that illegals can basically claim anything and get free passage. Agency managers and supervisors have too many conflicting rules and regulations, and they don’t know which is to be followed.

First make sure you replace all of your clips with magazines.

I’ve seen most of Ed Wood’s movies, they are better than this one (yes, even Plan 9).

Now, see, this is the step where you sympathize with the maniac, give him a warm fuzzy hug and reason with him that Betty Lou needs to be taken out instead than you.

Thanks for the ping.

At exactly 1:00 min. into the video, you can see the standard liberal notice that no guns or concealed weapons are allowed in that building. Nothing like a gun-free zone to attract crazed shooters and criminals, LOL.

BTW, I really like your response to a mass shooter. I’m still working on mine:

1. Fire
2. Draw/Aim
3. Scream in agony
4. Limp away as fast as I can

Not a PING...

Brave Sir Robin ran away.
("No!")
Bravely ran away away.
("I didn't!")
When danger reared it's ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
("I never!")
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
