Peacekeepers Training

Today we saw why infrastructure (target harding) only approaches to school or church safety are doomed to fail. In Michigan the attacker drove his truck through the access control doors. The only thing that did work was immediate armed response. We must live in the world as it is and not as we would like it to be.

Right now the Missouri legislature is debating making the School Protection Officer program stronger. We need to demand our government fulfill our most important duty, to protect our children.

In both of the targeted violence incidents the last two days the suspects breached the access control measures in place. They will get in, they have already planned how they will get in when they arrive. They will shoot people until someone makes them stop.

We have decades of data that proves immediate response saves lives. I have heard my friend Ed Monk ask the question and I have plagiarized it more than once speaking to school boards. He asked, "If someone entered this room and started shooting people how quickly would you like them to stop?' The answer then begs another question, do you have a plan, resources and the training to accomplish your answer. In this case there were heroes willing to stop the threat.

The next DPS certified School Protection Officer class starts May 18. If your children's school doesn't have SPOs, ask why.

CBS News is reporting that the shooter was identified as former Virginia National Guardsman Mohamed Bailor Jalloh. The FBI says this incident is being investigated as a terror-related attack.

While there is no way to have total 360 awareness at all times. Try to limit getting too focused on things like watching the walk sign or cell phone while people are passing freely behind you. As you can see don't expect someone to save you.

Important to know the laws for the jurisdiction you live in and remember to know the difference between criminal liability and civil liability.

The Missouri Supreme Court has declined to hear a challenge to a landmark appellate ruling, effectively expanding the legal grounds for using deadly force in self-defense. The decision upholds a lower court’s finding that Missouri law allows for deadly force to prevent a “forcible felony,” even in instances where there is no immediate risk of death or serious physical injury.
