No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

The three basic actions are RUN, HIDE, and FIGHT.

Running in an irregular line makes you a harder target, as victims are typically selected at random.

You should lock yourself in, barricade the door, and turn off the lights so no light shows underneath the door.

The safest time to attack is during the four to seven seconds it takes for an inexperienced shooter to reload.

If you are holding the gun or near it, you must drop it and immediately raise your open hands.
