Sometimes we are.
I work on two or three active shooter drills a year. My wife does as well. I am not suggesting I run them, or train people on them. But I sit through the pre training and post training.
There are a million questions. But they are not going to release anything until they understand how it fits into the puzzle. There are always things they are not going to talk about because it may tie the shooters to another event or person.
I know everyone hates the first press conferences, but that chief did a great job and gave out a ton of information.
Criticizing their looks or nervous smiles is indicative of folks never being in that type of situation.
They are terrified of making a mistake.
Well said. Giving relevant, appropriately detailed information in a stressful situation is not an easy thing.
I wasn’t being critical of YOU........ ;)
