What’s it hurt to stay over a couple hours after service on Sunday? This group trains inside their sanctuary like their lives depend on it. *Church training, NO LIVE-FIRE* These are BLANKS only!

YES, this congregation has an armed element, many of them already exited the sanctuary and went to work to address the attacker (you don’t see that in this section of video)! Ideally you stop the problem before it gets in; one BIG way to do that is barricading the doors.

Barricading buys time for the elderly, children, and others to exit. Do it. Give everybody as task while a few go and address the problem people(s).

Before the comments about the windows and doors being defeated…the GOOD guys and gals use that SAME idea against the attacker(s) and have planned accordingly.

This group is READY for the brief moment of an encounter and they’re also covered for the years of legal battles afterwards with 🐻

We get this question a lot. What happens if the attacker tries defeating or defeats the belt? 🤔

Great question! steel buckles, reinforced nylon/leather, and the ratchet locking system make these belts a force to be reconned; but YES, the can be defeated.

Locking a door with a lock is best but many fire code doors don’t have a simple/fast lock. 🔐 Locking AND barricading = better. 👍🏻

We show the belt and barricading as PART OF THE SOLUTION, not the entire solution. The unified group behind that door/barricade ready to be unfair against an attacker is what will ultimately win the day.

Locking/barricading:
Buys first responders/security time ✅
Less instances of PTS ✅
Allows secondary escapes ✅
Buys time for children, elderly, handicap ✅
Defeats the Bystander Effect ✅
Empowers/prepares ACTION by group ✅
Easy to practice ✅
Affordable ✅

Stand in the gap. These preschool teachers are the few already standing in that gap 💪

This metaphor refers to standing in a breach in a city’s wall to defend it from invasion. Spiritually, it means interceding through prayer to protect the land from destruction.

It applies to our schools, houses of worship, and our way of life.

Despite growing security measures, hostility in the workplace and at churches remain at the forefront of people’s minds. The days of sitting through a safety PowerPoint or video alone are not satisfying people.

Every group we train is a breath of fresh air! We’ve seen AMAZING people step forward and learn how to keep their groups safe in our training programs. Taking even an hour out of a workday to realistically prepare is paying off for our clients. Accounts from our training participants keep us going; we hear YOU and will keep going!

*BLANKS ONLY, NO -LIVE FIRE* Safety Training scenario designed to acclimate ALL the senses to the stimulus of an attack. Each group will have a unique response based upon their building, group makeup, and legalities for their state.

We continue to use for all individual legal defenses coverage. 🐻

Unpopular opinion on social media. ⚠️ These are NOT uncertain times! In a day where it’s cool to be anti-EVERYTHING; our followers stand together and defy the negativity. We LOVE our nation and the freedoms afforded to us that other nation’s simply don’t have.

God bless the good women and men of our armed forces, first responders, and responsible citizens who stand ready to uphold our way of life. We train the best, DAILY, and are proud to do it. 👊🏻

This video is an example of the beautiful sounds of GOOD Americans training to protect others around them. Love > Evil.

His life mattered.

The ILEA is saddened by the loss of Beech Grove Officer Brian Elliott. He was a shining star at our academy (2024) and represents the very best our law enforcement community has to offer. Our prayer, thoughts and actions go out to his family and the BGPD.
In the holiest season of the Christian faith, may God lift him to heaven and become a guardian angel for the 17,500 police officers in the great state of Indiana.

“Reasonable precautions” ‼️ Church TRAINING CLIP, these ladies are preparing this room for an armed encounter AGAINST EVIL. They are able to fight back from behind closed doors because we train them with TitanX 👀.

As a church safety team leader, you are bound by legal doctrine in your umbrella insurance policies. Learn the term, “reasonable precautions” 🚨 The church can be liable when REASONABLE steps are not taken to prevent harm when danger is foreseeable.

Be very weary of a training program’s legacy because it’s simply being taught by an “off duty officer”, “a veteran”, or someone who is unlicensed/uninsured…that’s NOT going to hold up in court! 🤦🏼‍♂️ We’ve seen MANY of those “experts” crumble on the stand in front of juries…many ‼️

If anybody knows my story, this needs to be said. took pause last night at the to recognize the audience but in a way I’ve never experienced in the MANY of concerts I’ve attended.

The Texan, recognized first responders on American soil, including us police officers. Surviving a gunfight on our own soil changes you, those little moments being recognized by a man of character makes more of a difference than most realize.

Thanks 🇺🇸
