you might consider a codeword or pair of codewords that require immediate compliance without question...do it, and I'll explain later

"safehaven" .... secure the home

"armed safehaven"...arm yourself, possible danger from intruder

"flee safehaven to ......"...leave immediately, take firearm,I'll meet you at a predetermined location


educators... you should have a procedure in place to inform your administration and resource officer that you suspect a student is in possession of a firearm.... it needs to be an innocuous statement capable of being spoken in the clear, over the intercom or over the telephone..."this is Mr. Snyder in room 207, I've misplaced my yellow folder"
