Surviving an Active Shooter
The Houston Police Department is pleased to present to the citizens of Houston an informative hour and a half seminar on the reality of an active shooter in your community.
Dating back to 1966 at the University of Texas we have seen senseless and tragic loss of life due to deranged individuals. In our current world which is filled with disaster it is prudent to know what to expect and what to do should you find yourself in the face of an active shooter.
In a world where your thoughts are rarely focused on such topics, proven, common sense instruction by experienced professionals may eventually save your life.
Some of the high points that will be discussed are:
Also presented are the films “Run, Hide, Fight” and “Last Resort Active Shooter Survival Measures” and the “Florida School Board Shooting”.
It should be noted that acquisition of weapons is not encouraged; yet we do advise developing your own unique customized survival mind set for the world you live and work in. Much of the information is cutting edge and designed by the Houston Police Department, a law enforcement pioneer in this area. As of June 2014 over 15,000 citizens of Houston have received this empowering training.
