We have an active shooter, we
have an acre Shooting's go ahead of a

2
00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:11.560
player that's a mass casualty Welcome to
Active Shooter, a podcast that covers the

3
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:17.160
whys, the hows, and the
aftermath of active shooter and mass casualty events.

4
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.600
I have an active shooter in a
building a teching call as a our

5
00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:32.600
big attack of the show. We
got chuck fire at four fifteen ASL broaching

6
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:49.240
ninety one, So I'm like,
oh, I'm at a fire on Active

7
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.399
shooter. Coorts of an active shooter, active shooter, active shooter of mass

8
00:00:53.399 --> 00:01:00.960
casualty incidents. Thank you for listening. You are listening to Active Shooter,

9
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:06.879
a podcast that may contain adult themes, explicit language, and graphic depictions of

10
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:11.280
violence. Portions of this show may
be traumatic for those under eighteen. Listener

11
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:19.560
discretion is advised. We begin with
breaking news tonight, law enforcement sources confirming

12
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:25.439
three victims and the shooter have all
been killed in a shooting at the Dollar

13
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:29.959
General on Kings Road near Edward Waters
University. Good evening to you, everybody,

14
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:34.079
Thank you for joining us. Mass
shootings are utterly devastating acts of violence

15
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:38.280
that we can never make sense of, and even more so when the attack

16
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:44.359
is against a child, is anti
Semitic, anti LGBTQ plus, or is

17
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:49.359
rooted in pure racism. How do
you comprehend that three innocent people were murdered

18
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:56.599
because of a complete stranger's ignorant beliefs. How does one explain to a child

19
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:02.079
that their parent died because someone else
hated the very existence of them, simply

20
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:07.560
because of the color of their skin. The shooting at Dollar General in Jacksonville,

21
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.400
Florida was a cold blooded murder that
was carried out by a monster with

22
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:17.039
a gun and bigoted malice in his
heart. It's a heartbreaking reminder that racism

23
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:23.319
is still very prevalent, and it
is our duty to educate ourselves about racial

24
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:28.240
biases, have the courage to speak
up when we see racism and embrace other

25
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:35.080
cultures and ways of life. We
must teach love over hate. Today's case

26
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:39.360
is dedicated to the lives and memories
of the three shooting victims, Angela Michelle

27
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:50.759
Carr, Gerald Gallian and a Nault. Joseph A J. Leguire junior active

28
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.280
shooter. The podcast is a High
five Holly production, and I'm your host

29
00:02:54.599 --> 00:03:01.639
JT. If you've listened to our
prior episodes. You know that the Active

30
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:07.000
Shooter podcast team has taken the no
notoriety pledge and we will not be sharing

31
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:12.360
the real name to the shooters that
we cover. We will be giving the

32
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:16.319
shooters a pseudonym and refer to them
by that name throughout the episode. This

33
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:21.439
will help in clearing up any confusion
in the story. While remaining true to

34
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:27.560
our pledge and not naming the shooter
by their actual name. We will refer

35
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:42.879
to today's shooter as Yuri. Saturday, August twenty sixth, twenty twenty three

36
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:47.080
was a hot Jacksonville day. There
were scattered clouds throughout the sky, and

37
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:53.159
the lack of a breeze made the
heat feel sticky and heavy inside a neighborhood

38
00:03:53.360 --> 00:04:00.280
Jacksonville Dollar General. Employees managed to
stay cool enough as they worked around the

39
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:04.439
clutter of boxes and merchandise all over
the store. The store was relatively busy,

40
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:10.319
customers mustling in and out of the
store with their merchandise carefully tucked inside

41
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:15.240
their bright yellow shopping bags elsewhere.
Twenty one year old Yury was leaving his

42
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:20.240
home in Oak Leaf Plantation, which
is close to Jacksonville, at eleven thirty

43
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:25.720
nine a m Yuri backed his gray
Honda Element out of the drive and took

44
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:32.680
off his destination the busiest dollar store
he could find. His purpose murder as

45
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:39.839
many innocents as possible before taking his
own life. Yuri carried a glock twenty

46
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:45.439
ten millimeters pistol and a Palmeadow State
Armory AR fifteen rifle. He made a

47
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.800
momentary stop at a family dollar where
he purchased a few items. It's believed

48
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:54.959
that this store was the initial target. However, Yuri allegedly grew impatient while

49
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:59.839
waiting, so he left. It
isn't evident what or who he was waiting

50
00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:03.079
for four but it has been speculated
that there weren't enough customers in the store

51
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:09.399
to satisfy Yuri's bloodlust. After he
left the dollar store, Yuri drove to

52
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:15.160
Edward Waters University, which is a
smaller sized, historically black college. He

53
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:18.879
arrived at twelve forty eight pm and
cruised into the parking lot located behind the

54
00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:24.800
library and pulled into an empty space. Next to his parking spot was a

55
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:29.199
vehicle that was occupied by two black
men. Yuri sat there for a moment,

56
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:33.439
but took no action except to record
a TikTok video of himself putting on

57
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:39.199
a tactical vest. Police would later
indicate that they didn't believe the college was

58
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:44.839
a or the only target Yury had
in mind. Why he stopped there isn't

59
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:48.600
clear, but shortly after he arrived, a campus security officer came upon Yory's

60
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:55.120
car and walked up to speak with
him. The officer asked Yuri for identification,

61
00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:59.959
which he was unable to produce,
so the officer informed Yuri he would

62
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:04.319
need to vacate the campus property.
At twelve fifty seven pm, Yury drove

63
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:10.639
through the parking lot with the security
officer following close behind so as to ensure

64
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:15.639
he actually left. Suspicions peaked,
the campus security officer waved down at Jacksonville

65
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:23.680
Shriff's deputy and reported the encounter that
left him feeling unsettled. The deputy issued

66
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:28.120
a bolow or be on the lookout
for the gray Honda at one o eight

67
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.959
pm. Mere moments after the bolow, a shot Spotter nine one one alert

68
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:38.600
blasted eleven times. After eleven shots
were fired just outside of the Dollar General

69
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:44.040
store located at twenty one sixty one
King's Road in the predominantly black neighborhood.

70
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:48.319
Of Jacksonville called Newtown. The shot
Spotter is a service that offers a gunfire

71
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:55.279
locator service and claims to be able
to discern whether or not gunfire was detected

72
00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:00.720
in a specified area, allowing law
enforcement to be dispatched Accordingly. The company,

73
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:03.319
which is based in Fremont, California, has changed the services name to

74
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:10.480
Sound Thinking Incorporated. Perhaps it was
coincidental, but the name change came after

75
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:15.800
recent dissent with the system due to
serious concerns of its reliability, equity,

76
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:35.360
privacy, and effectiveness. Ury fired
all eleven shots directly into the windshield of

77
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:42.639
Uber driver Angela Michelle Carr's vehicle.
Angela was dropping off a passenger when her

78
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:47.519
windshield suddenly exploded as eleven bullets blasted
through it. The fifty two year old

79
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:53.480
mother of three and grandmother to sixteen. Angela was described as a thoughtful and

80
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:58.639
attentive woman who worked incredibly hard to
provide the best possible life for her family.

81
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:03.680
By her personal struggles with a rocky
divorce and other family drama, Angela's

82
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:11.680
daughter said her mom was the strongest
person she knew. Angela leaves behind a

83
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:18.720
legacy of perseverance and compassion after shooting. Angela Yori entered the Dollar General,

84
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:24.920
and without a moment's hesitation, he
raised the gun and fired. The shot

85
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:28.720
spotter went off again, alerting one
time at one o nine PM, as

86
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:35.320
Uri shot and killed employee Annault Aj
Leaguire as he was trying to run from

87
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:39.679
the sounds of gunfire. Nineteen year
old Aj was born on October twenty five,

88
00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:43.679
two thousand and four, and was
the youngest of seven children. When

89
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:46.759
he was only five, his mother
passed away, and AJ and his siblings

90
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:52.600
were raised by their grandmother. The
responsible young man aspired to be a professional

91
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:58.039
video game streamer, and understandably,
his favorite thing to do was play video

92
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:03.559
games. His thoughtfulness nature will be
deeply missed. The first nine one one

93
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:09.120
call was placed at one nine pm, and several others followed. Inside the

94
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:13.840
store, security footage depicted an individual
wearing a tactical vest with a blue button

95
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:16.679
up shirt over it. His face
was covered and he wore a hat,

96
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:22.919
ear protection, khaki pants, and
rounded out the look with black boots.

97
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:28.440
At a very quick glance, he
might appear to be any regular shopper.

98
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:33.559
Petrified employees and even a few customers
were able to escape through the rear exit.

99
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:39.799
Yuri walked rapidly towards the back of
the store, briefly exiting out of

100
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.720
the same door people just ran out
of. He turned and re entered the

101
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:50.039
store and looked up to a security
camera. He raised the firearm and attempted

102
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:54.600
to shoot the camera, but he
missed. At one ten pm, Gerald

103
00:09:54.679 --> 00:10:01.519
Gallian and his girlfriend, completely unaware
of what was taking place inside, entered

104
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.879
the store to do some light shopping. They may have been able to peruse

105
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:11.200
a few aisles searching for their desired
items when at one thirteen pm, Yori

106
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:16.200
came upon the couple. He raised
the gun and shot Gerald. His girlfriend

107
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:20.399
ran. She didn't think, she
just ran for her life. Ury chased

108
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:24.360
her through the store, shooting at
her at least once, but he missed.

109
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.480
Gerald's girlfriend was able to get out
of the store through the back exit,

110
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.559
and Yuri followed out the same way. He shot at her again,

111
00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:37.480
but thankfully he missed again. She
got away and Yuri walked back into the

112
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:43.960
store once more. Twenty nine year
old Gerald Gallian was a giving person who

113
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:48.440
practiced and preached love over hate.
He was the first to jump in to

114
00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:52.919
help someone else, and he loved
his family above all else. Gerald leaves

115
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:58.039
behind two sisters, a mother and
a four year old daughter who will miss

116
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:03.200
out on knowing the truly honorable her
father was. He was planning to spend

117
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.120
the weekend with his little girl before
he was ruthlessly murdered in a single act

118
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:16.039
of pure hate. At one fourteen, Yuri walked into the back office and

119
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:18.879
took out his phone. He drafted
a text to his father, which was

120
00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:24.600
sent at one eighteen p m.
The message instructed his dad to enter Ury's

121
00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.240
room, but he had to pry
the door open with a screwdriver. His

122
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:33.240
dad got the message, read it
and went to his son's room, where

123
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:39.600
he located two documents, a suicide
note and a last will and testament.

124
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:43.080
It's not clear when the message was
read, but at one fifty three PM,

125
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:46.600
Yury's dad called nine one one to
report his son as an active shooter.

126
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:52.480
He told the dispatcher that Yuri was
taking lexapro and had been seeking help

127
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:58.320
from a psychiatrist. However, there
was a full bottle of medication that was

128
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.399
just filled on July twenty third,
so it appeared that Uray stopped taking the

129
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:07.080
medication altogether, which in and of
itself is a bad idea. Any type

130
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:13.679
of antidepressant or psychiatric drug should be
weaned down, not abruptly stopped the nine

131
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:20.320
to one to one. Audio from
this call will be played now. Okay,

132
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:22.720
do you know where he is right
now? No, I'm sorry,

133
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.120
I'm a little upset. No,
you're fine, sir. If he said

134
00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:33.080
anything like this before when he was
fifteen, he left the note a suicide

135
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.799
note, and got on his bike
and was headed downtown to jump off a

136
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.360
building. And does your son go
anywhere that you know of it is?

137
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.039
They're like call and say no,
No, he doesn't go anywhere. Oh,

138
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.960
he doesn't go anywhere. Yeah,
he plunked out a flagular college,

139
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:56.799
moved home about a couple of years
ago, had a job for a while

140
00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:01.120
at home depot and lost that job, and pretty much living in his room

141
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:03.399
ten milligram tablets. But it doesn't
look like he's been taken on. This

142
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:11.639
was filled July twenty third in the
bottles full. At one nineteen pm,

143
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:18.200
police officers entered the Dollar General and
heard one single gunshot. They didn't know

144
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:24.679
it at the time, but that
final shot was Yuri taking his own life.

145
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:28.200
By three point forty four pm,
a swat team confirmed that Yuri was

146
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:33.039
dead. There were at least three
manifestos located on Yuri's person. One was

147
00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:39.159
addressed to his parents, one to
the news media, and the third was

148
00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:43.360
to federal agents. Each document was
a bone chilling account of how strongly he

149
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:52.240
desired to murder black people. It
was disgusting, disturbing, and carried out

150
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:58.840
with precision. Each of the shooting
victims was black and was the intended target

151
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:05.320
of a racist individual whose horrific words
do not bear repeating or releasing into the

152
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:11.399
world. After searching his home,
a manifesto found in Yuri's room was thirty

153
00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:16.399
pages long and what the Clay County
Sheriff described as quote the diary of a

154
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:20.720
madman. Several electronic devices were seized
and examined, and there was a substantial

155
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:26.080
amount of data recovered, including several
writings Yuri made. They all described his

156
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:33.399
deep hatred against all black people.
Yori believed he was superior because of his

157
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:39.440
own race, yet his distaste for
anyone different also extended to the LGBTQ plus

158
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.120
community, and he uttered a substantial
number of anti Semitic comments as well.

159
00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:48.759
There was no evidence that Yori belonged
to any kind of hate group. He

160
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:56.759
was a lone wolf, solitary,
isolated, and brimming with malignity. Each

161
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:01.960
of the weapons Yuri carried had swastikas
etched into the sides. The firearms were

162
00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:07.480
purchased legally, as he had no
criminal history that would prevent him from obtaining

163
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.080
a gun. Photos were taken of
Yori's bedroom, and they showed a bedside

164
00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:18.120
table that held multiple bottles of booze
and prescription drug containers. A sign bearing

165
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:22.799
the quote joined the Revolution was hung
on one wall, and several books about

166
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.759
guns were discovered, including one that
was titled The Christian and his Machine Gun.

167
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:33.840
Whether coincidental or not, and it's
not likely a coincidence. The shooting

168
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:37.279
fell five years to the date after
the shooting at a Jacksonville video game tournament,

169
00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:58.440
which we covered in episode seventy four. Yori was born on November twenty

170
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:02.679
eight, two thousand and one.
He attended Oak Leaf High School, where

171
00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:08.240
a former classmate described Yori as quote
introverted, socially awkward, and very involved

172
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:14.559
in internet humor. After graduation,
Yori enrolled at Flagler College, but he

173
00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:18.600
was soon dropped for poor academic performance. He landed a job at a local

174
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.879
home depot, but that didn't last
long and he was apparently let go from

175
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:29.480
the job for reasons unknown. Yori's
father said later that after he lost the

176
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:33.639
job at home depot, Yori retreated
to his bedroom, where he spent the

177
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.879
majority of his time. In twenty
sixteen, police were dispatched to Yori's home

178
00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:42.039
for a domestic disturbance, which was
actually a fight between Yori and his brother.

179
00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:48.080
No arrests were made. At the
time of the shooting, Yori's brother

180
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.840
was serving a jail sentence for armed
robbery. Little else is known about his

181
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:57.320
family. On July sixth, twenty
seventeen, there was an incident when fifteen

182
00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:02.399
year old Yori claimed to be overwhelmed
by stress and indicated that he was going

183
00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:06.759
to ride his bike to the Bank
of America Tower in Jacksonville and jump off.

184
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:11.440
He left a suicide note and took
off. The police were contacted,

185
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:15.440
but before they could find Yury,
his mother located him and brought him home.

186
00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:21.759
A state rule called the Baker Act
was enacted, allowing for an individual

187
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:26.440
to be detained for seventy two hours
pending a mental health evaluation. After the

188
00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:30.839
three day hold Yury was released,
and because there is no commitment order,

189
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:36.480
there was absolutely nothing barring Yury from
legally purchasing the firearms he used to murder

190
00:17:36.559 --> 00:17:44.640
three innocent people. Reducing or closing
these loopholes, or perhaps even enhancing existing

191
00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:48.319
laws, is quite possibly one of
the common sense ways we can enact sensical

192
00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:55.000
gun control laws that are meant to
protect individuals suffering from mental health issues from

193
00:17:55.079 --> 00:18:00.240
harming themselves or others. Yury worked
at a local Dollar Tree from October twenty

194
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:06.319
twenty one to July twenty twenty two, but there are no reports or accounts

195
00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:10.160
of any issues that would suggest the
reason why he chose one of the discount

196
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:15.559
stores to attack. As previously mentioned, he had no real criminal record,

197
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:19.079
just a speeding ticket from June twenty
eighth, twenty twenty three, where he

198
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:25.400
was reportedly in a two thousand and
four Honda Element on Old Middleburg Road driving

199
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:27.920
at a speed of forty one miles
per hour in a thirty five mile per

200
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:33.640
hour zone. His social media presence
was minimal. He didn't seem to have

201
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:40.680
any accounts outside of an x formerly
known as Twitter account. On that account,

202
00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:45.440
you redescribed himself as someone who consumed
far too much Arizona iced tea drinks,

203
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:48.640
and he claimed to be an oak
Leaf High School graduate with a three

204
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:55.279
point five GPA. He also called
himself certified in Adobe Illustrator CS six,

205
00:18:55.680 --> 00:19:00.119
Adobe in Design, and Adobe Photoshop. His last post hosts were in twenty

206
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:06.279
nineteen, and one such post included
his acceptance letter to Flagler College along with

207
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:12.200
a caption quote looking forward to a
bright career in business administration. The parents

208
00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:17.519
of the victims filed a wrongful death
lawsuit against both the Dollar General and the

209
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:22.960
shooter's parents, claiming that the retail
giant neglected to take adequate steps to ensure

210
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:29.119
customer and employee safety. The suit
further cites Dollar General failed to ensure that

211
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:33.480
there was proper security at the store, particularly given the fact that the stores

212
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:40.240
located in a known high crime location. The shooter's parents were blamed for failing

213
00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:45.480
to protect the public from quote reasonably
foreseeable criminal acts which were likely committed by

214
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:52.160
their son. Occupational Safety and Health
Administration also known as OSHA, initiated an

215
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:59.359
investigation in a Dollar General after discovering
the hotchpotch of merchandise, shopping carts,

216
00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:03.599
boxes and stock that littered the eyeways, which may have prohibited the ability of

217
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:11.440
customers and employees to easily flee the
store. The full report has not been

218
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:17.119
released at the time of this writing. We all have the unique ability to

219
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:21.839
help prevent such a catastrophic event from
happening if we keep our eyes and ears

220
00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:26.680
open and never hesitate to report when
something or someone just doesn't seem right.

221
00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:33.480
With the delicate balance of mental health
reform, education, active shooter training,

222
00:20:33.799 --> 00:20:37.640
and common sense gun laws, we
may one day realize the dream, the

223
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:44.319
dream that there will be no more
active shootings. We pray that love will

224
00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:51.279
prevail over hate. Too many have
died, we should say to ourselves,

225
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:57.079
not one more. In the meantime, we urge our listeners to stay aware

226
00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:03.119
of your surroundings and keep in touch
with your loved ones. If you see

227
00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:08.799
something, say something, you never
know how many lives you'll be saving.

228
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:21.400
Thank you for listening to today's episode
of Active Shooter the podcast. Remember,

229

may be saving. A big thank
