Active Shooter
Active Shooter
Today, the world is much different than it use to be. Times and people both have rapidly changed. I believe that after all that has been happening and with the attitudes of outraged people that we should pay more attention to our safety and the safety of the people around us. Especially in schools, at public events, and in work places. I believe topics like shootings are topics that we should take seriously. Being in college puts you around so many new people. You have no idea who you can trust as you are adapting to the campus life. Meeting new people can be great, but we have to think about the kind of people we put ourselves around.
In the Active shooter presentation, we went over what reality would be like if we had to encounter a shooter at our school. The officer showed live clips, had a power point presentation, and talked about how to deal with the situation. This set students into the realization that a shooting could happen anywhere, at anytime. It’s a matter that should be taken serious. This subject is something that most people tend to overlook. In the presentation, the live reenactment videos really showed us how easy it is for a shooter to get in, and how hard it is for the victim to get out. In the presentation I liked the organization. He related to the students well, and gave very informative perspectives. I think that the videos were helpful, because they gave us an actual visual of what a shooting could look like and how to prepare for this kind of thing. I did not enjoy the overall subject as much, because it is something that is very serious that most people would rather look over. The other thing I disliked were the people who didn’t take the presentation serious. It might not have been the best way to spend your afternoon, but this is a subject that needs to be addressed within our school. In the long run, I know that it is information that will help us, or someone we love. Overall, I liked the presentation and how
