Violent Intruder Response Strategies

Tell a colleague <http://www.neo-rls.org/ce/emailevent.cfm?ID=1117>  

Program Date:  Friday, April 8th 

	
Program Time: 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

	
Speaker: 
Greg Crane lives in the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex. Greg enjoyed a
career as a Texas police officer until 2002, serving at various times as
a patrol officer, field training officer, crime scene investigator, SWAT
officer, and SWAT team leader. He also served for eight months in Kosovo
as part of a US Army Force Protection Team. He holds a bachelor's degree
in Criminal Justice from Midwestern State University, and a Master's
Degree in Forensic Science from George Washington University. 

In 2003, Greg began teaching Criminal Justice at a local High School. He
also served as an Adjunct Professor at a local community college. Now he
travels around the country conducting Active Shooter Defense training
programs and seminars. This began as a part time endeavor in 2000, when
after evaluating and assessing the Columbine tragedy with fellow SWAT
team veteran, Allen Hill, Greg co-founded the A.L.i.C. E. program and
Response Options, a Critical Incident Training Company. 

	
Program Description:
The world is quickly becoming a different place. And while the chances
of finding yourself or colleagues involved in an act of mass violence is
rare, it is real. The attacks on places like Columbine High School and
Virginia Tech University are reminders of how real these dangers are.
You should be prepared. If your survival strategy is to rely on the
police or military to arrive in time to save you, history has shown that
to be unrealistic. You are the real "First Responder". You are
responsible for the safety of you and yours. Easily said, but how does
that correlate to real action? We will teach you easy, but effective,
survival strategies for both armed and unarmed response to those meaning
you and your colleagues harm. 

An overview of a proactive philosophy gaining nationally acceptance
designed to increase safety of private and public institutions should
they become involved in the very rare event of a Violent Intruder
Attack. Philosophy follows the long-standing Crime Prevention Model of
General Deterrence, Specific Deterrence, and Hardening of the Target.
Response Options is a Critical Incident Response Training company based
in Texas. The philosophy and training programs of the organization are
based on over 60 years Police SWAT and Military experience of its
founders, as well as over 30 years classroom experience of some of our
associates. Survival of violent events on the streets and battelfields
has taught valuable lessons and skills needed to survive extreme
violence. We have taken these learned skills and adapted them for use by
building occupants in the event of a Violent Intruder. Lockdown
(Securing-in-Place), and other passive strategies do not provide enough
training or information to those in immediate lethal danger. Increasing
the skill level necessary to hurt potential victims is actually quite
easily effected through simple acts and mindset, but unfortunately, most
of our citizens are not aware of these simple, but effective,
strategies. We will show you.
