Run, Hide, Fight Tactic May Be Outdated

I thought this was an interesting news article and from CNN no less:

Here’s a blurb from the article:

“More and more, though, engaging the gunman may prove more effective than the other choices, CNN National Security Analyst Juliette Kayyem said, with at least one US community shifting away from the “hide” piece in lieu of more active defensive steps.”

Whenever I shoot Steel Challenge I picture one to the head on zombies. I can’t help it I just do. One is all it takes, phooey on 2 to the chest.

@BrianK Its a good standard practice although I always did it the other way 2 -chest followed by 1-head . If the 2 to the chest stopped the threat then they got a chance to live to be prosecuted ,adjudicated ,sentenced…etc… If it didnt stop and they got the 1 -head well God was the judge .

If you run, they will just shoot you in the back.
Both the criminals and the cops.
