IF YOU ARE THE PRIMARY TARGET

1. Get as far away as possible

An untrained shooter isn't likely to be accurate at any distance greater than sixty feet.

2. Run fast, but do not move in a straight line---weave back and forth to make it more difficult for the shooter to draw a bead on you.

The average shooter will not have the training necessary to hit a moving target at any real distance.

3. Do not bother to count shots.

You will not know if the shooter has more ammunition. Counting is only for the movies.

4. Turn a corner as quickly as you can, particularly if your pursuer has a rifle or assault weapon.

Rifles have much greater accuracy and range, and the person may be more likely to either aim or spray bullets in your direction.

IF YOU ARE NOT THE PRIMARY TARGET

1. Get down and stay down.

If the intended target is near you or if the shooter is firing at random, get as low as possible. Do not crouch down; get on your stomach and stay there.

2. If you are outside and can get to a car, run to it and lie behind a tire on the opposite side of the car from the shooter.

If no cars are present, lie in the gutter next to the curb. A car will stop or deflect a small-caliber bullet fired toward you. However, higher caliber bullets---that are designed to pierce armor---can easily penetrate a car and hit someone on the opposite side.

3. If you are inside a building and the shooter is inside, get to another room and lie flat.

If you cannot get to another room, move behind any heavy, thick objects (a solid desk, filing cabinets, tables, a couch) for protection.

4. If you are face-to-face with the shooter, do anything you can to make yourself less of a target.

Turn sideways, and stay low---stray bullets are likely to be at least a few feet off the ground. If the shooter is outside, stay inside and stay away from doors and windows.

5. Stay down until the shooting stops or until help arrives.

-------------------------------------------------------

Some of these things are only applicable to Special Forces. This should help to keep you alive if you don't want to shoot back.

Had you taken the time to create an informed thought on this instead of skimmed it like a rock on the pond, you would've seen the very bottom, in which I stated: "This should help to keep you alive if you don't want to shoot back."

What-a-moron.

Run away and hide, for the entire map. Make no noise and make sure you are under something so the evil arty won't get you.

Since under every number you had a description, why would #5 be an exception?

I thought that:

"Some of these things are only applicable to Special Forces. This should help to keep you alive if you don't want to shoot back."

Applied to:

"5. Stay down until the shooting stops or until help arrives."

Is it so wrong to think logically?

Edit: Thanks for the - karma

yea, or you could not be a fag and just shoot at a person. seeing those fairy little fucks dancing EVERYWHERE pisses me off. there are only 4 people i know that can do that and kill someone doing it. the rest just do it then end up killing themselves throwing a grenade at the ground or something

Yes, I noticed that. It's called the How to survive in the Worst Case Senario, or something like that.

Plagiarized. -1 for not sourcing.
