Quotes by Juliette Kayyem  (?)

“In the military, the phenomenon of the outsider coming in, commenting with profound wisdom but little insight, is called a GOBI - a General Officer, Bright Idea. This is a way that soldiers make fun of generals and other high-ranking officials who walk into a situation and pontificate, like, "We really should fix this," as if nobody has ever thought of that idea. Brilliant. We should really fix this.”
Juliette Kayyem, The Devil Never Sleeps: Learning to Live in an Age of Disasters

“As a mother, I found these school shootings devastating. With decades of mass shootings, we’ve now learned that there is no benefit for first responders to delay entry into a facility. Previously, they had assumed that a shooter had some agenda and that by not entering, police could convince them to stop their violence. After Columbine, police were trained in a new tactic: immediate action rapid deployment.8 Speed, in other words, could have saved those children. It is worth noting that years later, conventional wisdom has begun to change again. The new understanding is that students could know what to do if there was an active shooter if it was explained to them but that formal active shooter drills are less beneficial than once thought. The trauma to students, especially younger ones, outweighs any benefit they may gain.9”
