Sitting in the movies last week and the exit door pops open a crack. I'm instantly nervous and hyper aware. A majority of movie theater shooting the person came in through the exit.
As I'm scanning and prepping and cursing the fact I don't have my AR ccw yet I decide to act.
I get up, approach the door obliquely, I do a quick peek, I open the door hard and fast ready to pounce. No one is there, no equipment was staged. So I close the door hard and listen for a few seconds, look over at the other door. Nothing.
As I sit down a few people clap and one woman says thank you.
I wish more people would pay attention to their surroundings and then act on what needs to be acted upon. Have courage! Overcome your fears.
btw I was nervous and the fight or flight deal was surely kicking in. But if it was the 1/1,000,000 chance it was going to be an active shooter I didn't want to be sitting there!
