    fight another day? youre the one who wants them to run away! how can they fight again if you are advocating not fighting in the first place? so they should run away just to run away again?

    Well they would be running away to live another day... unless they plan on military, ufc ect.

    no, it wont. chances are there will be more kids dead, since in the stampede the slow kids will be knocked down, leaving them to the mercy of the shooter. now considering our obesity rates....

    Fat kids tend to be stronger (and more dangerous when stampeding) i would imagine the fat kids would be alright just a bit slow, its the skinny frail ones who aren't athletic that would possibly get knocked over and stampeded over, which obviously isn't any better....

    Perhaps there could be some kind of semi organised stampede, release the athletic ones first, they'll sprint ahead and not get in anyones way, then i guess the fatter people.... and leave the frail till last, for thier own protection from the stampede, i suppose it has a kind of unfairness to it, but i would be very pissed off being kept in a classroom with a shooter on the loose....

    stampedes are rarely organized. do you think there will be any form of organization when bullets are flying around you? all hell breaks loose. to think otherwise is just plain daft to me.

    anyhow, no one can outrun a bullet. even if the fat kids did knock down everyone else, do you think they could outrun the shooter?

    Well in reference to the organisation i was simply on about an order in which the teacher would let the kids out of the classroom, after that its chaos....

    do you think there will be any form of organization when bullets are flying around you? all hell breaks loose.

    I was refering to kids being kept in a classroom whilst the shooter is somewhere else, if the shooter is in the classroom shooting then obviously the teacher wouldn't be keeping the kids in the classroom....

    anyhow, no one can outrun a bullet.

    No, but if shooter is busy in another classroom you don't need to outrun the bullet, just get out of the school and avoid the shooter, though if the shooter is there looking at you, you probably have more chance trying to run away in zig zags than charging him, thats only going to work with a very brave determined group of students

    even if the fat kids did knock down everyone else, do you think they could outrun the shooter?

    well in my plan there shouldn't be people for the fat kids to knock down, its not individually that they have to outrun the shooter, if he shooter is in the centre, and 4 fat kids run off round 4 different corners from the shooter then he is at best going to be able to get 2 of them (if they're are very slow fat kids and he's a very fast shooter... and theres not many turnoffs where he can go the wrong way...) likelyhood is in that situation only 1 kid dies....

    This isn't some serious plan i want implemented.... more thinking out loud....
