[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2538933, member: 95344"] It's not a matter of cowardice per se but tactics or doctrines. The old doctrine was to set up containment and evacuate, that was the standard and how some agencies still operate. The new doctrine is to engage an active shooter. It requires more training. There are risks to both doctrines. I wouldn't be calling the people there cowards. None of us know their orders at the time. And none of know for sure how we'd react until that time comes. I hope it never comes. What we can do is try our best to find out what happened and take measures to prevent it. I'm guilty of judging those there too. I criticized that the doors should of been locked. It's possible that the school administrators felt that a return to "normalcy" was what the community needed. I'd be happy to train school personnel, but many schools aren't ready to do that, even in Idaho. So in the mean time I'll look for other solutions. [/QUOTE]
