The Broward County Sheriffs Office has identified to Fox News the captain who, according to sources, directed responding deputies and units to stage or form a perimeter outside Stoneman Douglas High School, instead of rushing immediately into the building, as the mass shooting unfolded there.
Multiple law enforcement and official sources said the commands in the initial moments after Nikolas Cruz allegedly opened fire would go against all training which instructs first responders to go, go, go until the shooter is neutralized. As law enforcement arrived, the shooters identity and exact location were still unknown.

I can still see the fireman running into the towers on 9-11.
“A copy of Broward Countys active-shooter policy even appeared to indicate that responding deputies and officers may enter the building without permission and should seek to neutralize the shooter until objectives are met for example, if the shooter is contained. The policy did not appear to indicate a priority for staging or a perimeter.”
Oh like our unarmed Americans on that French train disarming a full grown terrorist with an AK47?
Wow, I’m sure you must have forgotten to hit the Sarcasm emoji or something!
It was not a good tactic in this case, but it is standard police operating procedure basically everywhere. The shooting lasted just over 5 minutes. I have never been to an active shooter event where the police did anything that would have made a positive difference in the outcome of an incident of this short of duration. I have never seen so much breathless misinformation about how the police react to situations such as this.
Once the situation got to the point where an idiot with a gun was shooting up a place... the only realistic hope that someone would intervene in less than 5 minutes was if an armed civilian who had the courage, the skill and the opportunity to kill the perpetrator was already onscene.
If we really want to make schools safer we need to make it more likely that armed civilians who are willing to act are at schools. This situation is a typical and example of the folly of depending on the police to provide for the safety of school children or anyone else for that matter.
“Yeah, but their student arrest numbers have come so far down over the last few years.”
Wow, that’s wonderful. The government should reward them with huge cash payments.
They are going to tear down this school just like Sandy Hook? WTFO? Because of this shooting? For emotional closure?
I learned this in Thailand, always rub the neck and feel for an Adam’s apple.
More tidbits of info from Coward County.
That’s a man, baby..
So in one incident, alone, we have found our own Baghdad Bob and a Pat.
Lordy. I withhold my reaction, but share some facts:

Lesbians on parade...INCOMPETENT lesbians.
They tear it down to destroy evidence of their guilt. Just like Waco, Just like Sandy Hook.
And that's a hell of a price to pay for being stylish.
Would have been nice if EMS could have gotten to the injured.
LOL!
there are several tactics to use when engaging an active shooter. All law enforcement personnel have received the training.
LOL. You forgot that he was also armed with a bazooka and several RPGs.
Why are there so many of these clones in lar enforcement?
