"I am in worried that this one kid is going to target me. I plan on telling my councelor. but a individual strategy would be awsome"

If Im reading this right, it would appear that you have reason to believe that you may be a target. The advise that you have recieved here with respect to cover and concealment is good advise. I have a concern however, that, as you believe you may be a target for an active shooter situation, why havent you called the police and voiced your concerns?

I have been in many violent situations involing firearms. It never goes the way you think it will. Lose the tough guy approach and call the police! and stay away from school that day.

This is VERY GOOD ADVISE!!!!

Let me again reiterate.....

"Talk to your counselor and get the person some help.   Let your parent know and get involved.   

Get out of the school if it happens.  Kids have no business getting involved.   Let the professionals work it out."

Of course we had Dunblane in the UK.  And then the firearms laws were tightened up (unfairly in my view).  But so what?  That is only one, once, and was quite a few years ago now.  Long before that we had Hungerford (he didn't go into a school though).

But the fact remains that these incidents are thankfully so rare over here, despite our lack of the 2nd Ammendment.  That is true, no matter how you try to dress it up.

Burned?  On this?  I rather think not guys. -

Hey Irishtactics!

I saw in the news that a Columbine-copy plot was broken up in Riverton Kansas.

 I remember you mentioned going to the Kansas City, MO seminar once.  Is Riverton anywhere close to you?

Yeah im a KC Kid. Nothing happened at my school. I was just a bit parranoid but never the less I felt that this is an important topic for highschool kids to know.
if there could ever be a school program about school shooting survival could be inportant to consider.
but then again i feel that the program would also feed the kids planning the shooting to act uppon the strategys expressed to the kids.

we all have a reality that in some way expresses the need for RBSD. This could be one for highschool kids.

Reality based changes from person to person, no matter who we are we are in danger. from a fight at school to a mugging in town. no ones safe i realy didnt apreceate it un till my little paranoia.

"No one is safe" is a little phrase that I always keep in mind, but only to a point.  I agree that it is important to be aware of the date, the significance, and the possibilities of violence no matter what.  However, be that as it may, don't become wrapped up in it.  Enjoy your time, no matter where you are.  Even if it's in school, (and believe me, I know how difficult enjoying your time in school can be.).  You should always be aware, but at the same time, don't succumb to fear.  Hock put out a blog, or maybe it was an article in his newsletter, about this concept.  A certain amount of fear will lead you to be aware.  To much fear will make you paranoid.  Recognize what the possibilities are, as far as violence is concerned, and act accordingly.  But don't be constantly afraid.  Living in fear is not a solution, it just seems like one for a short time.
