re: #50 Our Precious Bodily Fluids

You’re right.

The Austin campus has an active shooter guideline too. The pdf notes all the colleges/universities that have seen mass casualty incidents. Overpowering the assailant is the option of last resort there as well.

Also of note - police will treat everyone as a suspect and wont treat the injured until the area is secured. So, if you’re going to introduce even more people with guns to a shooting situation, that means even more people will have to be processed by law enforcement and ruled out as assailants before they can secure the area. That too will delay emergency medical response and could add to the casualty count.
