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....
