Keeping Safe During a Shooting Event

To keep safe during a mass shooting event, a common set of tactics by the experts is proposed. Because every scenario will be different, staying calm and assessing the situation to follow protocol is incredibly important. The protocol is: Run, Hide, then Fight.

  • Hide. Your objectives ought to be to escape the risk first. If that is difficult, it ought to be to obtain you to ultimately a location where you will be safe before the danger has transpired.

Keep in mind that violence like shootings or stabbings are disorganized, terrifying, and filled with panicking, frightened people. Like we pointed out, the threat might not be obvious, you might have not a way to battle back, and you do not know who or what you are facing.
