SURVIVORS

One Universal-Emotional Leakage

“None of them ‘just snapped.’ They all followed a pathway to violence. They didn't materialize out of the blue as monsters; they became monsters over time, meeting well-established milestones of monstrosity. And most of them didn't even bother keeping their intentions very secret.”

http://www.esquire.com/features/mass-shooters-1014

Suspect told a friend he was going to “shoot up a college campus in 7 days”. One week later, 9 people were killed at church in South Carolina

WHY DON’T WE SPEAK UP?Thought they were joking

Don’t want to appear paranoid

Don’t want to be labeled a rat

Afraid to challenge people

Feel supervisor or professor should report it

Feel they should mind their own business

Fear of being accused of blowing things out of proportion

Fear of confrontation

Conflict & confidentiality – “No one will trust me”

Disbelief that it is happening http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7374873n
