They ducked and they prayed
Huckabee made a comment on his new show Huckabee Today. I think that he might have been quoting someone, but I didn't get a name.

Think about what you have seen in other instances of people shooting into a crowd or a venue. What is the normal reaction? People try to flee, often times killing each other as they stampede.

Now think about the rally where President Trump was shot and almost assassinated.

Nobody fled, in fact authorities had trouble getting rid of people. They ducked. They prayed. And they stayed.

Huckabee said that most of us probably hadn't thought about that. I certainly hadn't.

They ducked and they prayed. They didn't trample each other.
