While a spate of school shootings across the country have grabbed their share of media attention, almost half of all shootings take place at work.
And Beverly police Lt. Richard Russo said the same advice officers give students and school staff in an active shooter situation — how to run, hide, and fight — applies to employees at the workplace.
Russo and Beverly police Officer Brian Long spoke about ways people can keep safe in the workplace and in their day-to-day activities Wednesday morning in a free active shooter defense program at The Cabot. About 50 business people and residents attended the talk, which was sponsored by Connolly Brothers, Beverly construction firm, and The Cabot. |

"It makes me feel more empowered not to be a victim," Gordon said of what she learned from the presentation.
That's nice, dear. Get a gun, learn to use it, and carry it.
Forget this fish-in-a-barrel nonsense. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
