    You're already a target in that kind of situation. It's best to think of yourself as being already dead. Then, by being the walking dead instead of the living stiff, you can act and possibly save your life or the lives of subsequent targets.

    Even cowering behind a desk is better than just standing up and getting shot.
    P sure even the desks don't provide adequate protection from the average bullet in the first place. having multiple people throw stuff at him is more effective than cowering behind a desk and letting him pick you off one by one. Yes, you risk exposing yourself to greater temporary risk, but it's still a much better strategy.

    There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

      The best strategy is to get other people to throw cans at him while you get out of there.

                Oh great one, since you claim to know everything, do explain the issue or are you going to go on for 30 pages, while saying you don’t want to ‘get into this’?
