Written by Matt Golueke | Sep 28, 2015 1:00:00 PM

Recent reports by the Associated Press and reports by Fox News, Herald-Review, and other news outlets are covering a growing debate over the best tools to use to barricade a door during an active shooter situation.  

The debates go even deeper than that over other options to sheltering in place such as evacuate or stay and fight.

Proper planning is critical, there's no debate about that.  The way that a building full of kindergartners reacts to an incident will be very different from how a hospital reacts or how a corporate campus reacts.  

What's your organization's plan?
