Re: Can a CHL enter school as first responder?

Thank you! Lengthy was good!

A cop friend of mine told me his wife's first job is to get safe (with their kids, if they're there) and second job is to call 911 and tell them her husband is an off duty officer wearing a blue polo and jeans (or whatever) so arriving officers may ID him. I've given my wife the same instructions now.

I've bookmarked that site to check out later.

The LEO said if a civilian were to obtain or carry in an incident like this, you better not have a weapon in your hand when the cavalry arrives. When they show up, they are not there to help the victims who are already shot, they walk right past them, they are there to shoot the BG, period. If you have a gun, and they see you, you will be shot, period. There will be no "put down your weapon", "stop", ect....person with gun is shot.
Can any current or former LEOs here give us their personal insight on this? Would you yourself shoot first and ask questions later, or would there be a verbal command? Does your department have policy or procedure for this with an active shooter?
