So, when the students were told to "run, hide, fight", what exactly were they supposed to fight with? Words?
While no one truly knows how they will react in that type of situation until they are in one, I am of the opinion that if your in a true active shooter situation like the nightclub in Florida that you basically have two choices if you can't immediately flee. You can either wait to die or you can fight back however you possibly can. Pick up a chair and throw it at him, throw bottles at him while you try to get closer, try to tackle him when he is reloading or just straight bumrush him. I figure that your chance of dying are pretty much 100% so whatever action you take other than waiting to die can only significantly increase your chance of survival.
