The timeline I saw from the shooter on site coming in to getting in that classroom was 2 minutes. It happened quick. I'm not sure if the teacher went in that door right at that moment, but the report said the shooter was shooting windows.......Not sure......But if true that teacher was running for her life and may have missed it. Not sure the details on that door yet.Hs anyone ever taught you folks about the emotional/logical teeter totter?
When emotions go high, a human's ability to think rationally decreases. This is why we teach calming tactics for those who deal with stressful situations involving life and death.
Panic is a natural reaction to fight or flight.
This teacher could not keep a rational thought once she panicked. Her action is one of muscle memory. She normally propped this door open as a daily item. She was on automatic pilot and she did what she normally does.
