Fighting back

"Youngsters in a suburban Fort Worth school district are being taught not to sit there like good boys and girls with their hands folded if a gunman invades the classroom, but to rush him and hit him with everything they got – books, pencils, legs and arms.

"’Getting under desks and praying for rescue from professionals is not a recipe for success,’ said Robin Browne, a major in the British Army reserve and an instructor for Response Options, the company providing the training to the Burleson schools."

It’ll work if they surprise him/her. Hope they’re teaching them some version of situational awareness.

UPDATE  Good advice: "In a school shooting, if you can leave then get out. If not, don’t cower or hide. Fight enough to get out."
