Trouble for Magnus at the airport

[Magnus]

Magnus is coming home from his family vacation!! While picking up all his smuggled goods there's an attack in the gun free zone! Bullets begin to fly and airport security is responding or standing there who knows. People are fleeing and bodies are dropping. What's the game plan? How can the Magni family get to safety? FYI Magnus is not afraid of using innocent people to shield his son from danger. In a crowd how would Magnus be able to identify a safe direction to travel?

Magnus needs to stop living dangerously and buy a nice home in the mountains.

So when armed security is in the area, best thing to do is to drop and stay low. The baggage claim islands will provide Magnus and his family adequate concealment to crawl to the Customs canine area and barricade themselves in until all the bullets and blood stop flowing.

you are like Harry Potter always in the wrong place at the right time!

Drop to the floor and move to cover, use the carousels, use the carousels, use the carousels and keep moving toward the security offices or Exits.
I am assuming you are unarmed.

Stay away from me and mine Magnus! You attract trouble like bee's to an apple core on a hot fall day!

For now, hit the floor and teach your loved ones the art of low crawling.

I'm starting to see why you guys never invite me to outings..

Assuming you're unarmed, hit the deck and use the carousels as cover. Try to make it to a more secure location without drawing too much unwanted attention. I would stay away from the direction the jihadis...whoops...I mean "cis-gendered, racist, right wing militia-loving terrorists of the patriarchy" are heading (this is a politically correct thread, no?) so I presume stay away from customs supervisor area.

However, on the off chance that perhaps you are armed (had the foresight to pack the EDC plus ammo in a secure box and collected it from TSA prior to SHTF) open those cases up and put that bad boy into battery. Now if this was a John Wick movie, I'd say march towards the ragheads (I mean "bubbas") and start taking them out with headshots one at a time stopping only to tactically reload or to pick up one of their dropped weapons and using their goat loving bodies as shields. Once they're neutralized wait for security and Breitbart News to get there and be honored as a hero. Accept Presidential Medal of Freedom at the White House dinner you'll have with President Trump six weeks later. Make sweet love with Mrs. Magnus in the Lincoln Bedroom with Honest Abe's ghost watching over you.

But this isn't the movies. If somehow you do have access to a weapon, keep it close and move the wife and kids to safety (preferably in a direction that takes you away from the action and to a location outdoors). Keep a low profile with it to avoid being incorrectly ID'd as a bad guy and if by chance the cavalry does come sweeping that area, deep conceal that bitch and stay mum on it. Don't fire unless you absolutely have to. Again, you'll draw unwanted attention to yourself.

Agreed. Get security between assorted Magni and all the BG's. Stay low and DON'T BRANDISH cause the second wave of security might be a little trigger happy.

Let's see I can't work with Magnus, I can't go to the mall with Magnus, I can't go on vacation with Magnus and I can't even hang out with Magnus in his apartment.

I figured it out! Magnus is Tom Hanks!

 

[Eddie Gunks]

Sounds like a good diversion magnus devised to get his smuggled goods into the country.

You don't own a Glock for airport usage? They're undetectable to scanners.

Dont check in with luggage. Everything one needs shoud fit in a carry on.
Stats say100% of people survive fights or attacks where they are not present.
Always buy good sneakers and teach your family how to run fast away from trouble.

I think Magnus needs to buy a surplus missile silo, move the whole family in and never leave

In a siruation like this, get as many of the security guys as possible between you and the bad guys as fast as possible.

Honestly though, the scenerio as you have it drawn has the security guys outnumbered, and presumably outgunned. I dont see them headed toward the danger, but more the bad guys hunting them down. Maybe head off in a 3rd direction, dont want to get caught in a cross fire.

And dont draw a weapon, you don't want both groups seeing you as a threat.

Head for the closet directly up from you. Hopefully it has a lock. Then wait for the wave of first responders.
