Active Shooter
Mr. Melhorn
topic active shooters Credentials High school administrator Today Mr.Melhorn talked to the class about an active shooter situation. A situation where a gun man opens fire on incident people for the intent to hurt or kill. Mr. Melhonrs talk dives deep down into how to handle situations like this. His presentation give a list of steps to take when encountered with this situation. The first step he disused was the ability to escape. Escaping from the situation presents the best chance of coming out unharmed. This involves finding exits that normally are not used. Also when trying to escape look for routes that are well protected not just running out in the open. The next step is hiding, This involves finding a area which you can separate yourself from the shooter, and lock or secure yourself in some way. This involves barricading the door with chairs or tables, also turning out the light might cause the shooter to think the room is empty. The final step he discussed was defending yourself in the event that escape is not a option and there is no place to hide. The last step is to take action involves finding or using items around to disrupted the shooters breathing, sight, and mobility. Some examples of these items include fire extinguishers, powders, trip wires, and an objected that can be turned into a projectile. If the shooter loses these senses. His ability to control his weapon becomes harder allowing for action to control the situation becomes easier. Mr. Melhorn's talk conveyed what active shooters are and how to handle the situation if it is presented. After hearing Mr.Melhorn's talk the idea of a active shoot not only is part of a war time apocalypse but a every day occurrence. In a war time apocalypse their will be many people with weapons looking for people to capture or kill. Having the knowledge of how to handle this will become crucial in surviving. Not every active shooter situation will be the same but having a plane of how to deal with each one will increase survive chancres tremendously. The best plane is to find a way to move safely away form the shooter escaping the situation all together. By using cover like pillars, and benches to find ways out of the situation present the best chance of survival. The next option is to find a place to hide. Hiding is not going to guarantee survival but it is better then being trapped in the same space as the shooter. Once finding a spot time hide its a good idea to barricade doors and windows to prevent the shooter from coming in. If the situation pans out the shooter will move on and not spend a lot of time dealing with the barricade. The last option is arm yourself and take the shooter on. This is not the ideal situation but at lest it present some chance of surviving. Finding anything that can be used as a weapon can become crucial in disarming the shooter the faster the shooter losses the ability to shoot efficiently the better chance surviving is. All in all shooter will become a regular part of life in an war time apocalypse having the knowledge to overcome the situation will become crucial in surviving. Mr.Melhorn's talk hit a rather serous note. With the increases of violence over the last couple of year a active shooter could walk threw any door at any time. In today every changing society public shooting are on the rise and could happen at any time in any place. Every one should be aware of the horror that is a active shooter. No one should take the matter lightly everyone should have plane or idea of how to handle the situation. Any everyday trip to Walmart could turn into a life or death situation and for the people that have knowledge of what to do or how to handle them self could find them selves in a very stressful situation. Mr. Melhonr's talk applies to every day life knowing how to handle this situation could be the different between life or death. |
