Concealed Carry Training for that Third Grade Math Teacher

Firearms training. Do you get chills? Does it scare you? How about ‘gun training’? Or maybe ‘concealed carry training’ (that’s firearms training that one receives in order to receive a permit that allows him to carry a concealed firearm)? How about the idea of giving school teachers concealed carry training and then arming them with handguns? Well, if it does, it shouldn’t. If it doesn’t, good!

Dr. Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, as featured in the Sierra Times, have taken a very aggressive attitude toward school shootings. Dr. Piazza, the founder and director of Front Sight, America’s most successful shooting school, is certain that training and arming school teachers will make for a completely safe school environment. So adamant is he about safeguarding schools, he’s giving three teachers from every district in America free concealed carry training.

Piazza says, “Teachers will be trained to carry a concealed weapon, so potential attackers will not know which teachers are armed and which are not. In states that have adopted concealed weapon laws for private citizens, violent crime has dropped. School attacks will drop as well once it is known that any of the teachers and staff members on school grounds have the ability and training to stop a violent attack immediately.”

His idea of giving teachers firearms training and equipping them isn’t without successful precedent; says Ignatius Piazza, “In the early 70's, Israel was faced with much greater problems of armed terrorist attacks on 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.”

So join the club. Write to your school district and refer them to Front Sight, demand that your local area send it its three School Monitors for their FREE concealed carry training.
