Run, Hide and Fight. First of all be aware of your surrounds and the environment. If you see something, hear something or just feel odd about something, it’s most likely your gut telling you to take action. Many of us freeze when we get into frightening situations. Instead of freezing – RUN! If you see a clear exit out of the building or venue area, then take it and go and take other people with you. If you cannot run due to physical concerns or you’re not sure where to run – the next best thing is to HIDE. Lastly, if you have the opportunity and you are capable, then try to FIGHT the perpetrator. Scissors, hot coffee, fire extinguishers, furniture – anything that does harm is better than nothing. If you don’t believe us – then listen to FEMA and watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VcSwejU2D0.
