Why the second floor lunch room encounter could not have happened

So you're saying Baker would have let a potential cornered shooter upstairs go uncontrolled and possibly take hostages, or kill employees?

Bob if Baker takes the stairs then he lets the shooter escape via the elevator. If he takes the elevator then he lets the shooter escape via the stairs. I don't think it is reasonable, when Baker was running to confront a shooter, that you insert this planned rationality into Baker's mind as if he was a robo-cop with a computer graphic of the whole situation and all the plays from years of analysis present in consciousness. Your argument makes sense in a sophist analysis of the scenario but it isn't really realistic in real time. I think you are trying to force Murphy over the real events.

Your argument is basically because my years-long analysis of Baker conforms to the best police practices that therefore Baker would and should have practiced them. I'm not sure it works that way and Baker did what he did because he was trying to confront and catch a shooter.

On TV lately, the first responders for the Columbine shooting were interviewed saying that they made a mistake securing the perimeter and exits and should have gone straight in to confront the shooters.
