Its going to be low and fast for me and away from the gunfire not in straight lines..don't fancy taking cover unarmed and having the shooter advance on me, i know how difficult it is giving a zigzaging man a lead.

In our government offices in the US post 9/11, people were actually being taught to fight back using improvised weapons.
Computer work stations has a distress keycode which could be entered discreetly to activate a webcam and live audio feed alerting security to the cubicle having "issues". We used this several time in workplace violence situations, but didn't need to for terrorism.
My particular office had several "light duty" law enforcement who were reassigned after having been injured non the job, and they retained their badge and weapons and were armed during their ordinary duties when reassigned to emergency management. It was helpful on several occasions to have am armed, sworn officer with pistol and riot shotgun to acccompany me on some investigations when I was working building code enforcement and environmental crimes in the DC area.

I agree....fight back if you're trapped or cornered or have children to defend....may as well die a lion as a sheep!
