WHY SHOULD YOU CARRY?
STALKERS
Approximately 13.5 million individuals are stalked in the U.S. every year. Studies indicate that roughly 46% of stalkers ultimately display physical violence toward their victims.
ACTIVE SHOOTERS
It’s become normal to see “active shooter” featured in news headlines. We are now seeing a clear pattern of how to survive, and even stop an active shooter: an armed response.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND LOVED ONES
Predators attack the vulnerable. They avoid anyone who can resist them with force. Protection is a right that everyone has but is not always exercised. How prepared you are to defend those that depend on you hinges on your tools, training, and mindset.
