Purdue study shows arming victims saves lives
« on: November 24, 2015, 06:40:02 PM »
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) – The Purdue Homeland Security Institute is using simulation technology to come up with the best possible ways to handle active shooter situations.

[...]

The simulation technology allows him to adjust police response time, concealed carry probability, and whether or not security guards are present during a shooting. He said all of these variables are something every venue should consider.

He said overall, the simulations concluded if more innocent people were armed, less casualties would occur. Same goes with more security guards and faster police response times.
