Monday Morning in Sutherland Springs, Texas, a man by the man by the name of Devin Patrick Kelly, 26. Went in to a church and started to shoot the people inside. Many were wounded and a total of 26 are confirmed dead. Among the dead is Frank Pomperoy's (pastor) daughter of only 14 years old. The shooter was seen dressed in Tactical gear and a ballistics vest. After a brief chase the shooter was found dead in his car with a gun shot wound being the cause. Police are not for sure if the gunshot wound was self inflected or was shot by another person at this time.
Questions-
What would your first reaction be if you were in the church?
What you be you first reaction after the gunman left?
Answers-
I would try and clam everybody down and just stay out of of the line of fire and I would try my best to keep my loved one and other people around my safe. I would also try and see where the gunman went to try and help the police locate him.

Great job Jack!
I would be very scared but I would also want to get my family to a place that he couldn't shoot us as fast as we could. I would make sure he wasn't coming back in and I would help everyone out as much as I possibly could.
After the gun man left I would probably stay put for a while in case he was waiting outside, and then after it was all clear I would get in my car and go home to safety and shelter.
Would you help any of the people in side and if you would how? And also Would you follow the gunman after the shooting or would you just stay behind and leave after the shooter left?
If I was in the church I would duck under one of the pews for cover instead of running around like most people did. I think that this would make me a harder target and would give me mass coverage.
I would be completely and totally terrified. I wouldn't know what to do or how to help because I would be so frazzled. After he left, I more than like would call the police and other proper authorities. Then try and help the injured and wounded until help got there.
What would you do during the shooting, Would you hide under the pews or would you try and maybe fight the shooter to try and disarm him? Also would you follow the shooter from a distance and see where he when or would you just stay at the church until the police show up.
1. I can not think in what kind of reaction I would have in this situation, but probably I would be in panic and if I was with my family I would try to look for a place to hide.
2. It depends, I would be sad of course and very afraid, but if my family survived I would also feel relieved.
Would you try and help the people around you during the shooting or would you just stay and hind under the pews or under chairs? Also would you try and take down the shooter or would you just stay hiding.
I think that I would probably duck and hide unless I was like by the door he was shooting at. Then, I might be able to attack him and cause him to not hurt as many people. I would go around to other people and start doing what I could to help. I would also look out the window to see what he looked like.
