    911, and ideally they would alert a tactical response team with a negotiator to get on a helicopter while they gather details and form a plan in transit that would reflect their training for these situations. Have four of these teams in each state. police cordon off the area and monitor the situation to keep the team updated while they are in transit and to watch the entrances and exits while the staff that were already in the building, including resource officers, would be doing what they could to get people away or get them to the safest place they can. Police force as an intervention would be a last resort scenario, as escalation in these situations will only guarantee more dead. The police have no obligation to protect or serve under the current laws, they are not required to do fuck all, they should not be the people you expect to save or help you, they only exist at this point to punish you and bind you.

      Congrats! You win a prize for offering the first actual answer to the question without simply attacking me for my perceived biases. 🏆

      In most mass shootings I doubt negotiation is going to get very far - and the delay may cause more deaths. Many times the perpetrator simply commits suicide. These are folks who have hit ‘fuck it’ and are looking to end it all and cause a lot of damage on the way out. Often by the time police are even able to respond they’ve done most of the damage they will do already.

      The rest sounds an awful lot like SWAT.

          Your trophy is taken back. Sorry - I thought you were serious.

          You’re right, there is no perfect answer so we should just do nothing and allow the cops to do whatever the fuck they want and give them immunity for everything.

          Where did you get this from? I genuinely don’t understand the childish level of anger I’m getting for asking a legitimate question. When people say “never call the cops” they neglect to say what one should do instead. Just hide in a corner and wait for inevitable death?

          Go fuck yourself you stagnant kowtowing twat.

          Kowtowing to WHO??? Are you people crazy or something?
