“The Body cannot go where the mind has not been”.
There is an enormous difference between stopping an armed murderer who will not stop killing innocent men, women, and children until such time he or she is physically unable to do so and being able to shoot small groups on a static, two-dimensional paper target or steel target under more or less stress-free conditions.
This class was designed by Palisade Training Group, LLC’s Director of Training Steve Moses, who spent eight years in a leadership position on a mega-church security team and has both an executive protection background and law enforcement experience. Church security team members take on significant responsibility, accountability, and liability any time they voluntarily put themselves in situations taking place in an environment in which there may be anywhere from a dozen or so attendees all the way to several thousand within range of an errant round. Examples of church violence in the past have included the following:
