This shouldnt suprise anyone on this forum I hope.

We should ask ourselves what are we doing to prepare for a terrorist attack? You think a .380 Ruger in your pocket or a gun left in the glove box of your car will do much against a terrorist with an AK, or one wearing a suicide vest?

There is a lot of talk on this forum about "if only someone had a gun, they could have made a difference". As an individual could you make a difference in an attempted mass killing? It wont be the Military or Police it just may be one of us that needs to be prepared to act.

One of the best classes Ive ever attended was the Active Shooter Terrorist Interdiction Course hosted by Suarez International. That class showed me scenarios I never even contemplated getting involved in, and then showed me how to prevail. Our enemies are preparing, are you?
