This tragedy makes me wonder how the security authorities where I am would handle this, and I'm not sure if they would have reacted differently than VT:
- There was a school stabbing on my campus, that I never knew about until seeing the news. No warnings, no blockades, nothing.
- At work, we are instructed not to make a fuss if there is something suspicious going on, just alert your manager. We had an intruder scare that turned out to be false, but I had no idea what *could have been* happening at the time, and I was just a few cubicles away!
Generally, security guidelines are not designed with mass shooters in mind, and I can't really blame VT for thier decisions, as much as it would make me feel better about this tragedy.
