Well, I think the thinking is, though, that you could run out of the classroom or run out of your workplace and run right into the guy with a gun, that you're better off hiding.

He can't see you, so he's less likely to shoot you.

there but there are there are situations i think where you know we there's conflicting advice of you know if if somebody asks for your wallet just give it to them because then you're going to avoid but there are other times where you don't comply because if you're getting put here's the thing if yeah you're no you're exactly right if someone is going to give you if someone asks for your wallet give them your wallet but don't give them your wallet throw it behind them because they care about your wallet they don't care about you so give them your wallet but throw it behind them as soon as they turn around run

Well, it makes sense.

And that's advice I hope I never have to use.
