Concealed Carry Training? Yes, Arm Our Teachers!
This Cybercast News article speaks at length about Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight's goal to get teachers from all across America concealed carry training. Piazza, a long-time gun expert and Four Weapons Combat Master – one of, if not the highest, gun certifications available anywhere – is convinced that with training and education (surprise – education FOR teachers!), teachers can safeguard and protect the students they give their lives educating.
Concealed carry training is a unique gun training that strikes fear into the hearts of criminals and the insane. Criminals operate in fear. Committing harms against their common man, always nervous that they are going to be discovered or that another, worse criminal will do away with them, criminals are constantly in fear of their surroundings, and even their victims. If we add to their terror by threatening them with the possibility of confronting a ‘victim' who can draw a gun faster, aim it better and commit to necessary action more decidedly, we will destroy their inspiration.
As Ignatius Piazza is cited as explaining in the Cybercast article, Israel was having problems with terrorism in schools and shooters entering schools. “…The cry for more gun control was heard then too, but Israel very carefully analyzed all possible options before adopting the proactive position of arming and training their teachers. School shootings stopped and terrorists looked for easier targets.” And it makes sense, too! With Front Sight's concealed carry training, students become masters of their firearms. A criminal would be wasting his time – and quite possibly his life – attempting an attack on a school with teachers trained at Front Sight.
Dr. Ignatius Piazza's proactive decision to train any three teachers from a school for free is unique, and unheard of. Already many schools and districts have taken advantage of this unique opportunity, taking charge and responsibility for their students and their wellbeing.
