BREAKING: DC Police Chief Changes Tone; Citizens Should Be Prepared For Active Shooters And Terrorist Attacks


In an upcoming interview with 60 minutes that will air Sunday night, Lanier sits down with Anderson Cooper to discuss these topics and how things are changing in policy and in our world as a whole.
“Your options are run, hide, or fight,” says Lanier. “If you’re in a position to try and take the gunman down, to take the gunman out, it’s the best option for saving lives before police can get there,” she tells Cooper.
She goes on to say, “The fact of the matter is, most active shooters kill most of their victims in 10 minutes or less, and the best police department in the country is going to be about a 5-7 minute response. I always say if you can get out, getting out is your best option. If you’re in a position to try and take the gunman down… to take the gunman out, it’s the best option for saving lives before police can get there.”



That's strange for her to say, given her stance on concealed carry.

Invasion of the Bodysnatchers???

I'd like to hold out the hope that she has had a change of heart, but her history says that's not likely. Maybe she's just getting her head wrapped around the way things are going to be in DC when the court cases get resolved soon.

I imagine it is pretty hard for her to concentrate on her job when all she really does is sit around and dream up new ribbons to award herself. Pretty soon they will go completely up over her right shoulder and trail down the back of her shirt. To be fair though - she does spend a good part of her day refusing carry permit applications. So there's that.

Or Randy Johnson. He can blow up a seagull with a baseball (and has).

I heard the seagull shot first.

I've heard that coffee mugs hurled at an AK-wielding gunman are an effective weapon. Well, if you're Nolan freakin' Ryan they are.

Trouble is that Nolan freakin' Ryan is never around when you need him.

When seconds matter, Nolan freakin' Ryan and his coffee mug are only minutes away!
