Download or read book Active Shooter Survival Guide written by Nicholas Randall and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a sad fact that in today's world, mass shootings seem to be a regular thing in the United States. From schools to to colleges to grocery stores to concerts to other public areas, it seems that nowhere is safe. While the news media will usually focus on the political debates that arise as a result of these shootings, it is very rare that prominent discussions are held on what people need to do in an active shooter situation to survive. That changes now. Active shootings in public locations in the U.S have become more common. This is why it is so important for every person to understand how they need to respond should they find themselves under a hail of bullets. Something else I want to make clear is this guide is not a political book and is not going to touch on the debates surrounding what causes mass shootings or what needs to be done about them. This book is purely about what YOU need to do to keep yourself alive during a mass shooting situation. I have two pieces of good news for you: 1. You Don't Have To Rely On Luck To Survive A Mass Shooting 2. You Don't Have To Be Professionally Trained To Survive A Mass Shooting You can be just an ordinary person with knowledge of basic principles and strategies to survive an active shooter situation. This guide is going to outline 21 lessons on those principles and strategies that will enable you to survive unharmed and alive from any active shooter scenario that you may find yourself in. Most active shooter situations will only last ten or so minutes before the police arrive and put down the shooter, which is why you must be as mentally and physically prepared as possible to deal with the shooting situation during that timeframe. Being aware, knowing basic principles, and taking action will each go a long way to increase your odds of surviving an active shooting incident. Without any further ado, let's dive into the top twenty one lessons that will enable you to survive an active shooter scenario.

Our civilian training is available for business/corporations, organizations, gun ranges and groups and you can learn more at www.traintorespond.comWith scores of first responders and civilians trained, I believe that everyone should attend live training and know this valuable information.

Download or read book Lockdown Drills written by Jaclyn Schildkraut and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive resource on what lockdown drills are, why they are necessary, and how best to conduct them. The first book to offer a comprehensive examination of lockdown drills in K–12 schools, Lockdown Drills balances research findings with practical applications and implications. Schildkraut and Nickerson, school safety experts with complementary backgrounds in criminology and school psychology, review the historical precedents for lockdown drills, distinguish school lockdowns from other emergency procedures (such as active shooter drills), explain why they are conducted, present evidence-based research on their effectiveness, and describe how to conduct them according to best practices. Proponents of lockdown drills as a life-saving necessity, the authors help to bring much-needed standardization to how these drills are studied and conducted. The authors present common arguments for and against the inclusion of lockdown drills in emergency preparedness efforts, balancing their discussion of the perceptions and psychological impacts of lockdown drills with scholarly research on the extent to which lockdown drills improve how effectively individuals respond to a potential threat. Placing lockdown drills in the larger context of school safety and preparedness, they examine the broader implications for policymakers. Finally, they emphasize that drills, of which lockdowns are only one type, are just a part of the complex school safety puzzle. Ensuring that schools are safe places for students and educators begins long before a crisis occurs and continues through the days, weeks, and years of recovery following a crisis.

Book excerpt: The approach that should be used by law enforcement officers in order to safely and effectively enter a room is a point of contention among many police trainers. Based on five experiments conducted over a two-year period, Evaluating Police Tactics demonstrates that the conventional wisdom is not optimal.
