Cops hate when people are running everywhere, so we are told to stay put. And we buy it.

Gdammit people, think! Your job is NOT to make a cop's job easy! It's nice when it works that way, but it is NOT NECESSARY!

If you're going to fight.....hold nothing back!
If you're not going to fight..................RUN!

But for chrissakes, don't just stand, sit, or lay still!
