That's according to the DHS spokesman. This kind of contradictory instruction creates more doubt and confusion in scenarios LEO's might face that already have enough inherent doubt and confusion. A government law enforcement officer might not always be in a position to protect his own life when civilian lives are in danger, at least not while fulfilling his function as an LEO.

The DoD has civilian employees everywhere, combat zones included. At no time did I as a serviceman ever take a course that taught me to run and hide if enemy combatants entered my TAO. The civilian employees, on the other hand, may well have had those instructions. Doesn't take much effort to differentiate the armed personnel with hazardous duties from the unarmed personnel with administrative jobs.

Its a generic workplace safety course.

If you have a desk in the office...you fucking take the training.
If you are Johnny law with a huge entitlement complex "I aint taking no pussy safety course thats for civies motherfucker!!!"

You get additional training and prep work.

Lets refer to the training itself

When Law Inforcement Arrives

The primary goal of law enforcement is to eliminate the threat and stop the active shooter as soon as possible.
If you are law enforcement already on site...such as an armed border patrol agent...guess fucking what?

You my dear fanny pack wearing bastard have ARRIVED!!

Fucking go terminator on the shooters ass.

When all those pussy desk jockeys come asking you for direction...you have fortunately taken the same course as they have so you can remind them of the key points.
