    And with the effortless access to firearms provided in the US, choosing the “fight” option was easy.

      While thats valid comment for the main post, for the Whitman case, he was in the military. Even with strict laws he would’ve still had easy access unless we’re talking drastic changes of having military personel not having general firearm access.

      First off, 1966 was a different time worldwide for firearms possession.

      But for my real point, a continuous “activation” of fight or flight will always result in fight being the option, because all the running in the world hasn’t helped to that point.
