Gun School for Arizona Teachers
Promises a Level of Training That Exceeds Law Enforcement Standards IF
Arizona Lawmakers Will Allow Concealed Weapons in Schools

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Front Sight Firearms
Training Institute founder and director, Dr. Ignatius Piazza is known by
his hundreds of thousands of students as the "Millionaire Patriot" because
over the last 11 years Dr. Piazza has provided tens of millions of dollars
in training and benefits free of charge to assist law-abiding citizens in
securing what he refers to as the "Comfort of Skill at Arms."

In response to Arizona Senate Bill 1214, which would exempt
concealed-carry permit holders from a state law that bars individuals from
knowingly carrying deadly weapons onto school property, Dr. Ignatius Piazza
has committed to provide every Arizona School teacher with a $2,000, Four
Day Defensive Handgun Course, free of charge if Arizona lawmakers will pass
the Senate Bill 1214.

If it becomes law, the measure would allow teachers to carry their
weapon onto the grounds of any public or private K-12 school, college or
university in the state. Dr. Piazza wants to put the Arizona public and
legislators' minds at ease in passing the measure by training all school
teachers free of charge to levels that exceed law enforcement standards.

Ignatius Piazza states, "Every time sanity begins to prevail with good
legislators like Arizona Senate Majority Leader Thayer Verschoor and
Senator Karen Johnson introducing a real solution to protect our children
from a violent attack, the unenlightened begin crying about their fear of
teachers with guns. The same people who don't want teachers with guns are
happy to have more cops on campus at tax payers' expense. Front Sight
Firearms Training Institute will train teachers who secure a Concealed
Carry Permit to levels that exceed law enforcement standards, giving
Arizona Public Schools immediate and trained armed response to violent
attack and save Arizona tax payers millions of dollars."


But Rep. David Lujan, a Phoenix Democrat and president of the Phoenix
Union High School District board, said he is "uncomfortable with having
weapons on school campuses."
In the context of a school shooting, for
example, he said the prospect of additional weapons in the hands of faculty
or even students could "exacerbate the situation" when police arrive on
scene and are trying to quickly identify the assailant.


Piazza responds, "Representative Lujan simply needs to take Front
Sight's Four Day Defensive Handgun Course and he would walk away knowing he
has the proper decision making ability in the judicious use of deadly force
and the handgun skills to stop a deadly attacker immediately, safely and
responsibly. He would then have the same confidence in any of his Arizona
teachers who completed Front Sight's course."
Piazza adds, "When police
arrive on the scene it will be very easy for them to identify the
assailant. He will be the only dead body because an armed teacher stopped a
potential massacre as soon as it started."


From the hundreds of testimonials from law enforcement officers who
have attended Front Sight Firearms Training Institute near Las Vegas,
claiming it is the best firearms training they have ever received, it
appears Ignatius Piazza can deliver on his promise to train Arizona
teachers to levels that exceed law enforcement standards. The fact that he
will provide the firearms training free should make the Millionaire
Patriot's offer very hard for teachers, schools districts or legislators to
decline.

Bravo to Mr. Piazza, and I agree, I wish we had someone here in PA who'd be willing to do the same.

I wish local ranges and gun shops would take this stance. I think if you buy a gun from the store they should at least give you some basic training for free. Or just use the training to help their sales. It is really a win-win situation for them.

This is fantastic. Someone with both the money and the guts to stand up and be counted finally saying enough is enough. This man should be lauded from the highest mountains for his stance.

The GOA had a deal going for a while that if you purchased a lifetime membership you woud receive this four day training from Front Sight. I wish I would have done it but couldn't see how I was going to explain a trip to Vegas to the better half...

MILLIONAIRE PATRIOT WANTS YOU ARMED AND TRAINED
Offers His Own Money to Provide You With Springfield Armory Pistol and 30-State Concealed Weapon Permit

Dear Newsmax reader,
The next four years may prove to be a turning point for all freedom loving Americans.

With the new administration holding party majorities in the House and Senate, we are facing the worst political environment for the passage of unchecked gun control legislation and further erosion of our constitutional right to bear arms than we have previously seen in our lifetimes.

As the nation creeps from recession to depression, the potential for civil unrest in every major city grows more likely. There has never been a more crucial time in our nation's history to make sure you are armed and trained for the protection of yourself and your family.

One man in our country knows this better than most, and I'm proud to tell you, he is doing something about it.

His name is Dr. Ignatius Piazza.

He is the Founder and Director of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute and is known by his hundreds of thousands of students as 'The Millionaire Patriot' because he has literally given away millions of dollars in free and discounted training to law abiding citizens to assist them is securing what he refers to as "The Comfort of Skill at Arms."

Dr. Piazza, the Millionaire Patriot, wants YOU armed and trained and he is putting his money where his mouth is.

He is providing you with the opportunity to attend five days of world class training at his Front Sight Firearms Training Institute with everything you need to secure permits to carry a concealed handgun in over 30 states—all for pennies-on-the-dollar!

Plus, if you act quickly before all the guns he set aside are gone, he will give you, free of charge, a Springfield Armory XD Pistol in your choice of 9mm, .40SW, or .45ACP!

That's right. This is legitimate. Thousands of people have already taken advantage of it AND YOU SHOULD TOO!

I can personally vouch for Dr. Piazza and his Front Sight Firearms Training Institute.

I believe now more than ever before that EVERY American should be armed and trained to the highest levels possible—levels that exceed law enforcement and military standards. Take advantage of the Millionaire Patriot's offer. Get armed and trained to prepare for what may be coming in the next four years!

NOW is the time to get armed and trained. Don't wait until it is too late.

P.S., You have never seen me make such a personal endorsement, so take heed to the fact that I am telling you to take advantage of Dr. Piazza's offer to get five days of world class training at Front Sight, concealed weapon permits good in 30 states, and a FREE Springfield Armory XD Pistol.

IMHO, the guy's a fraud and a scumbag. He's a master of wordsmithing to get people riled up enough to spend thousands on his classes, and claims you get a free gun if you pass. A $500 gun after a $3000 class is not "free" in my book. He's been sued a few times for failure to deliver promised services, but always settles out of court.

He exploits every tragedy, from 9/11 to the Salt Lake City mall shooting to promote his training camps, and the incident in a recent thread linked below was the straw that broke the camel's back for me.

If you don't want to read all the replies, the first link is the article posted in the thread that exposes just how low this guy will go to promote himself as the saviour of the second amendment. Telling the world that if either member of this young married couple purchased his book, a beautiful young newly wed would still be alive and the lives of both families wouldn't be torn upside down. True? Possibly. A despicable act of self promotion using a tragedy that many people will suffer from for the rest of their lives. Most definitely.

This Makes My Heart Bleed

The thread link is below.
