A technical glitch delayed a mass e-mail to alert the University of New Hampshire to a reported gun incident on the Durham campus Sunday night, the university said Tuesday.Thank goodness there's a backup system in place, and one can always consult the UNH "Shooting Protocol." Let's see, stay calm, maintain eye contact, try to stall...consult a bunch of pastors and a rabbi, try to run...nope, nothing about returning fire.
The alert should have gone out Monday evening, when campus police say they learned how serious the incident was, but wasn't transmitted until 8:22 a.m. Tuesday, the university and university police said.
Oh, here it is, section 26.1 on page 69. They say you can't.
That protocol for shooter-in-the-room makes me want to vomit. They left out the "Die like flies" step.
ReplyDeleteJack Rumbaugh (Suarez International) demonstrated that even with aggressive UNarmed resistance, an active shooter would never make it past the first entry point.
Hecate, I emailed those guys at Suarez asking if they had any kind of write-up on their demonstration and didn't get a reply. I never pursue people who don't indicate further correspondence is welcome, so I let it drop. If you can do anything to get further info on this it will be appreciated.
