Only draw your weapon if you are in position to engage the threat.

Stow your weapon when the threat is gone.

Stow your weapon when LEOs arrive, or risk being mistaken for the threat.

Get yourself and your people to safety and let the rest die at the hands of the gunman.

It's what the Left wants anyway.

"...stow your weapon..."

Exactly. My plan is to remain behind concealment and cover in an active shooter situation should I ever encounter one.
Even if I have to remain in hiding for MANY HOURS until completely and absolutely certain of the “all clear” signal.

How much time between the arrival of leos and the shooting? Was there any command to drop the weapon?

Good advice that can't be repeated enough. Cops go crazy when they see a ‘civilian’ armed at an active crime scene. Unfortunately in this like a lot of other things common sense has vanished. Alaska is the only place I know in the US where ‘civilians’ will take off after an armed perp in aid to the cops. Just like the US Midwest and west circa 1930.
