all it may feel like just another day at the office
but occasionally life feels more like an action movie
than reality
the authorities are working hard to protect you
to protect our public spaces
but sometimes bad people do bad things
their motivations are different
the warning signs may vary
but the devastating effects are the same on
and unfortunately you need to be prepared for the worst
if you were ever to find yourself in the middle of an active shooter event your
survival may depend on whether or not you have a plan
the plan doesn't have to be complicated
there are three things you could do that make a difference
run
hi
liked
first and foremost if you can get out do
always trying to skate or evacuate even when others insist on staying
encourage others to leave with you but don't let them slow you down with
indecision
remember what's important you not your stuff leave your belongings behind
and try to find a way to get out safely
trying to get yourself out of harm's way needs to be your number one priority
once you're out of the line of fire
tried to prevent others from walking into the danger zone and call 911
you can't get out safely you need to find a place to hide
Ford
act quickly and quietly tried to secure your hiding place the best you can
turn out like this
and if possible remember to lock door silence your ringer and vibration mode
on yourself
and if you can't find a safe room or closet
tried to conceal yourself behind large objects that may protect
do your best to remain quiet and cool
as a last resort
if your life is at risk whether you're alone
are working together as a group fight back
with aggression improvised weapons disarm and commit
to taking the shooter down no matter what
tried to be aware of your environment always have an exit plan
know that an incident like this victims are generally chosen randomly
the event is unpredictable and may evolve quickly
I said the first responders on the scene are not there to evacuate
or tend to the injured they're well-trained
and are there to stop the shooter card
your actions can make a difference for your safety and survival
be aware and be prepared
and if you find yourself facing an active shooter there are three key
things you need to remember to survive run
