89 The RIGHT answer to the question, “In or out?” If you have the option of staying inside or going outside when an angry mob passes by, always stay inside. Your voice will not be heard from within an angry mob; there’s no point in going out there. Not only should you stay inside, but stay away #194 from the windows, and get well clear of them should anything (like rocks or bricks) be thrown through them. Also, be aware of the danger of fire should someone outside start hurling torches or Molotov cocktails. Submitted by Mike, Lexington, SC The one thing you should ALWAYS look for It’s one thing to take note of obvious exits. Does the room or area you are standing or traveling in have LESS obvious exits? Are there exits, ways out, that you might not normally think of as exits? #195 Are their doors not intended to be used as exits that nonetheless lead outside? In an emergency, don’t be afraid to duck out a window from the ladies’ room (if you’re a guy) or run through the kitchen door that says “staff only.” Less obvious exits are important. Submitted by Steve When the authorities could KILL you A lot of argument has arisen regarding authorities recommendations during emergencies. During 9/11, for example, those who listened to authorities’ calls to stay put were killed when the towers fell. Those who disobeyed #196 survived more often. In an emergency, listen to the recommendations of authorities because they may be correct... but be prepared to make your own decisions, too. You may not agree, but you need to take in as much information as possible to make a decision. Submitted by Dave, Turlock, CA
