E22: When Violence Becomes the Only Answer: Preparing Schools, Churches, and Workplaces

Host Edgar Mills examines recent school and church attacks to explain types of threats (internal vs. external), critiques the standard "run, hide, fight" advice, and offers practical steps organizations can take to reduce risk.

The episode covers preparation: threat assessment, simple SOPs and rehearsals, controlled access, technical monitoring, trained or designated security (including careful consideration for arming staff), and basic medical response to save lives.
