another two things i do not understand:

-why cops never enter the buildings, always waiting until nothing is moving/making sound anymore (read: everybody is dead already).
This especially striked me when i watched documentaries about Columbine, 3 and more hours before SWAT moved in.

-the retarded policy of ducking/cowering under a desk (seen in Columbine and i guess same happened in Virginia).
I think is MUCH better run like hell and try to escape, especially against gunmen armed with handguns only (not Columbine case, but still...).




You are going to have a swarm of campus, local, perhaps state police all unfamiliar with each other shooting at anything carrying a gun that moves , or in other words at each other. The shooter was also dressed in a vest to add to the confusion. The majority of these police (outside of campus cops) are likely unfamiliar with the layout of the building (exits, hallways, stairwells, what leads where, etc.) Best to have thought out of a plan then execute it rather than just winging it. Less likely to get your ass sued off by doing nothing than by doing something but doing it very badly.

The fairly natural reaction when faced with a dramatic, potentially life altering situation that one is not prepared for is to freeze. But I do agree that if I was a situation like this and escape was not possible charge and attack would have better odds than pose for a head shot.
