I feel much the same as Maritime Q-Scout.

I'm also very curious about the sheriff dept policy on Active Shooters as well. If it requires them to run into an unknown or mostly unknown situation where they are outgunned and hold all the disadvantages just to keep up appearances for the dept/public...well, that's a sh**ty policy. It becomes more and more evident why sheriff depts have such trouble hiring/retaining sheriffs that aren't voted in.

But then, considering that sheriff depts and police depts are actually pretty different things, especially when a city has a police dept and a sheriff dept, maybe their policy is to sacrifice their officers stupidly.
