Abstract:

Workplace violence is a sad reality of the modern age. Many options exist in helping deal with workplace

violence, yet fear of these options place businesses and organizations at great risk. All too often security

training consists of “RUN, HIDE and CALL 911” rather than a real defense that could save a life.

Currently fifty (50) out of fifty (50) states have some form of CCW (Concealed Carry) permit training,

and certification. Trained organizational members / university professors are currently discouraged from

protecting themselves and others by those who have Hoplophobia (Fear of Firearms).
