You can't do anything except rush in with all you got when some insane guy walks into a school and starts shooting. It's completely random and takes people by surprise. We don't see this alot anymore, but if a group of terrorists take hostages and ask for demands, then officials have options. But most terrorists now strike with surprise, no demands.

1. A flashbang? This is normal in counter-terrorist tactics. And it usually works. But it doesn't always work, especially when there's more than one guy you're going against. A flashbang might even cause panic of the hostages as well as the hostage takers. Like rushing into the Beslan school, I'm sure they used flashbangs but the terrorists didn't think twice in blowing up the school.

2. More often than not, the terrorists would be behind a window. It'd be very hard to get a shot with a bullet as a good sniper, let alone a tranquillizer dart. Officials want hostages out safe, they couldn't care less about the hostage takers.

3. Sleeping gas might be a bit extreme. And you have to use the right type of gas as well as the right dosage. Too much will kill you, that's the last thing officials want. People died in the Moscow Theatre.

4. Giving in to the demands of terrorists is never a choice. After Munich, I don't think anyone would do that again.

I'd say the best way is negotiations, full analysis of the situation and taking out the hostage takers with a counter-terrorist/SWAT team.

How ya doing, buddy?
