    I've never had much regard for Iggy Pizza or his cult-like training club. This type of marketing just further reinforces my opinion.

    Since its deserved and everybody should know what kind of shit this guy sends out...
    Two weeks ago I posted a blog entitled, Stop Screaming and Start Shooting that resulted in thousands of positive responses from subscribers who greatly appreciated the wake-up call it gave them.

    Many of you were also quite thankful for the lifetime membership opportunity that was presented as a solution to help any law enforcement officer or private citizen rise to the heights of proper combat mindset, fast gun handling and expert marksmanship--forever avoiding the deadly fate that lurks for those who shoot too late and miss too much.

    Well today I have another video for you that demonstrates the proper command presence, but clearly demonstrates how, once you make the decision to shoot, you must train yourself to block out everything else that is going on around you, focus on the front sight, and pressssss the trigger without disrupting your sight picture to decisively win a gun fight.

    I say "decisively win" and not "survive" because who wants to just survive a lethal encounter?

    Survive means you likely got shot or hurt but survived your wounds.

    If you have a gun and our training, I want you to take your opponent down and put him out of the fight, without YOU suffering a scratch.

    To do this, you must know WHEN it is time to stop talking and start shooting, and you must HIT with your first shots.

    ANYTHING LESS and you are no longer the master of your own destiny as you must rely on dumb luck or an incompetent opponent to "survive" a lethal encounter. Miss your shots at your own peril.

    Here is a video that demonstrates great command presence, but when the officer made the proper decision to shoot, he failed to focus on his front sight, lost his trigger control and missed repeatedly.

    When you miss with your first shots, all the high speed, low drag training in the world, all the tactical advantage you created up to that point means nothing because you give a drunk, armed with a rifle the opportunity to fire back.

    Again, only dumb luck or an incompetent opponent will allow you to survive when you miss with your first shots...

    As I always try to provide a solution and not just criticism, watch this video and then see an opportunity for you to receive a lifetime of handgun training for next to nothing in cost so you will decisively win and not just survive a lethal encounter.

    Watch this video and see the Front Sight Defensive Handgun Lifetime Membership Offer below...

    Click Below to watch the video:



    Fortunately, the officer involved had dumb luck and an incompetent opponent on his side.

    Don't bet your life on such a gamble.

    Take advantage of a Front Sight Lifetime Defensive Handgun Membership for less than the cost of a single course and be the master of your own destiny when you have a pistol in your hand!

    (Only the first 200 will be accepted... Over 260,000 are reading this e-mail now so don't hesitate on this one!)

    Get your Front Sight Lifetime Defensive Handgun Membership here.

    If you are in law enforcement or simply own a gun for self defense, please take advantage of this membership so you NEVER bet your life on the incompetence of your opponent as you witnessed in this video.

    I post a different article on this blog each Monday so I look forward to your visit every week.

    Dear ,

    You only have one day left to secure Tim Larkin's, Target Focus
    Training DVDs that will leave you as excited and humbled
    as Marc Johnson of Prospect Park, PA.

    Here is what Marc has to tell you...

    Dr. Piazza,

    I took your endorsement of Tim's materials seriously
    and the DVD's just arrived at my place outside of
    Philadelphia.

    Needless to say, I'm like a kid with a new Christmas toy,
    staying up late to study them.

    So far, they have revealed the gap between my understanding of
    the true application of violence in a life-saving way.

    This is a similar situation as what I experienced on my first
    day at Front Sight. I was excited to be there, yet "humbled"
    by the knowledge gap I had.

    Lucky for us, there are those like you & Tim who have provided
    a path to levels of competence in critically important
    subject matters.

    Just wanted to say, Thank You!

    Regards,
    Marc Johnson
    Prospect Park, PA


    You too will be thankful to have Tim Larkin's At Home,
    Target Focus Training DVD's, but you only have ONE day left!

    If you did not get this offer earlier, I have included the
    last e-mail below for your review:

    Here is what a Front Sight student and member who
    took advantage of the offer last week had to say about
    it:

    Dr. Piazza,

    I read your newsletter with your first TFT endorsement.
    I must say that I was skeptical at first, but when you
    said, "TFT is to unarmed combat what Front Sight is to a
    gun fight", I thought, "If the founder of Front Sight is
    saying its that good, them I'm in". I wasn't disappointed.

    I devoured the DVD set. From the first DVD to the last,
    these guys are the real deal. No fluff. No BS. No Martial
    Arts mentality. No bowing to Grand Master Fubah.

    Like Front Sight, they focus only on getting you quickly
    and efficiently to the point where you can be effective in
    a real life situation. Their teaching approach is remarkably
    similar to Front Sight. They, like you discard all the fluff
    and BS and refine the essentials.

    The instructors are trained experts themselves.
    This is hard core training to do violence with your bare
    hands, feet, elbows, any tool you have, without the drill
    sergeant mentality.

    I actually find the Front Sight and TFT to be quite
    complimentary. While I can use my AR-15 or my Tactical 12
    gauge for home defense, or my trusty .45 ACP for my personal
    carry, there may be times when I can't access those weapons
    quickly enough. In those cases, TFT teaches me to injure the
    other person now, make him non functional either by fists,
    boots, knife or gun, which ever tool is the best option at the
    best time. At a minimum, causing an immediate injury will
    give me the 1.5 seconds I need to draw from concealment and
    fire two, well-placed shots to the thoracic cavity like Front
    Sight taught me.

    It is fantastic.

    Here it is: https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    And here is what another Front Sight student and member who
    took advantage of the offer has to say about it:

    Dr. Piazza

    I signed up for Target Focus Training's offer and I'm
    working my way through the videos and books.

    I gotta tell you, this program is indispensable and
    absolutely required stuff if you hope to fulfill your
    responsibility to beat the predators.

    Tim Larkin's method is simplicity itself. It's how the
    predators do it.

    Thanks big time for telling us about it!

    If you have not yet taken advantage of Tim Larkin's
    (at home) Target Focus Training Self Defense DVD offer
    then do so NOW before they are all gone.

    Here is the link:

    https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    If you want to know WHY I recommended that EVERYONE
    associated with Front Sight take advantage of Tim Larkin's
    (at home) Target Focus Training Self Defense DVD offer,
    then read what one old, fat, out of shape guy had to say
    last week...

    Dr. Piazza,

    I want to report an incident which took place in Rome.

    We had toured the city on the open-top buses, and just
    enjoyed a glass of wine at an outdoor cafe near the bus
    terminal.

    We were walking toward the taxi stand and I noticed a
    small group of ruffians lounging around the entrance to
    the subway. As we walked along two of them left the
    group and began to follow us and close the distance.
    When one of them reached into my back pocket I grabbed
    him by the neck, rotated through and bounced him off the
    wall of a building. I put him on the ground and
    ascertained that he had nothing of mine in his hands. I
    looked around for his companion and discovered that he
    had run off. (My significant other was holding her
    walking stick ready to strike at either of them).

    Now let me describe myself... I am 57 years old, 5' 11"
    and 330 pounds. I am in lousy physical shape, as I work
    behind a desk and eat too much and don't get enough
    exercise.

    My significant other is older than I am, and neither of
    us is likely to run away from a dangerous situation
    successfully.

    How did I become an old, fat, out of shape killing
    machine? Well the old, fat, and out of shape part took
    years to perfect, but sometime in 2006 I became aware of
    Tim Larkin and Target Focus Training...

    I was interested in the philosophy expressed on the TFT
    web-site. https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    Two things impressed me immediately.

    The first was the concentration on function, not form.
    The objective is to cause a disabling injury to your
    opponent.

    Second, the training is available to people of every
    size, gender and physical condition. The size or
    condition of the opponent is of secondary importance
    because the physiological reactions to the TFT strikes
    and kicks are involuntary.

    If one learns to deliver a disabling injury and follows
    through, no opponent can prevent one's successful self
    defense.

    I ordered the DVD set and it arrived promptly.

    Tim Larkin made the point that criminal violence doesn't
    depend on skill or practice, but on inflicting injury on
    a victim. I watched the DVDs every night for a week and
    realized that this information was useful and of vital
    importance.

    The sessions are well described, the instructions are
    clear, and the practice shown is illustrative and
    helpful. I learned a good deal from this abbreviated set
    of DVDs and was determined to get more TFT training.

    When the sixteen disc course became available I
    immediately sent for it. It took me a couple of weeks of
    evening sessions to watch the whole series, which
    essentially condenses the three day live course into
    about 16 hours of instruction.

    This set of DVDs is terrific!

    https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    The whole course is presented logically, with the
    sections on asocial violence, legal responsibility and
    post incident considerations thoroughly handled.

    Each section on different types of injuries is concisely
    covered, and the demonstrations are just as real as when
    you are attending the class. No one is seriously
    injured, thanks to the quality of the instruction, but
    some of the instructors and mastery class members come
    away with bruises. You watch real people practicing the
    moves, being coached by first class instructors and
    learning to strike, rotate and follow through.

    I have re-watched almost every one of those discs and
    find each time that I learn more and reinforce the
    training. The technical side is thoroughly and carefully
    explained and the time devoted to practice and coaching
    makes it clear how the training works and why it does.

    I cannot endorse them highly enough, and would cheerfully
    buy them again at full price, which is remarkable for
    someone as frugal as myself.

    I like to travel and to walk around the various cities we
    visit both in the U.S. and abroad. In the past I have
    been apprehensive in various neighborhoods and wondered
    how I would react if we were confronted by bad guys.

    I regarded many younger larger and probably stronger
    individuals as threatening, especially in unfamiliar
    neighborhoods and unknown cultural situations.

    I stayed aware, and tried to appear confident but I was
    uncertain what I would do if violence began.

    With the benefit of the TFT training DVDs I know that,
    while anyone can be outnumbered (and TFT is excellent on
    dealing with multiple adversaries) I have the tools to
    protect myself and my significant other against an
    attacker.

    Since viewing and reviewing the TFT DVDs I look at bad
    guys on the street as potential Targets, not as Threats.
    It is hard to convey in words how profound the
    transformation has been.

    https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    The TFT training DVD course is extremely thorough,
    dealing with everything from the nature of violence to
    the physics and physiology of inflicting injury to
    dealing with armed attackers and multiple adversaries.

    I do not believe that anyone can watch the whole sixteen
    hours or so and not come away prepared to defend him or
    herself effectively from violence in our society.

    I'm a great example of how anyone of any age or physical
    condition can learn how violence works, and how to
    counter it by causing injury to an opponent.

    I can't think of a better opportunity to learn how, than
    these TFT training DVD's and want to thank you for
    bringing this information to the attention of your Front
    Sight students.

    You are right, an unimaginable amount of freedom and self
    confidence is gained through knowing how to incapacitate
    a violent opponent within 5 seconds or less. Take it
    from me, you are also correct that everyone should own
    this amazing DVD collection!

    Sincerely,

    John Rapinchuk
    Importer
    San Francisco

    Do what John Rapinchuk did and gain a profound
    transformation in your ability to walk the streets in
    command and control, regardless of your age, size, or
    physical shape.

    I recommend that YOU and EVERYONE associated with
    Front Sight take advantage of this amazing offer to receive
    Tim Larkin's (At Home) Target Focus Training DVD Package.

    Here it is: https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    I mean it. I have never endorsed ANYONE before, but I
    am endorsing Tim Larkin and his (At Home) Target Focus
    Training DVD Package because what Front Sight is to
    Firearms Training, Tim Larkin is to unarmed self
    defense. No exaggeration. He is the real deal.

    I'm as serious as a gun fight here.

    EVERYBODY reading this e-mail should take advantage of
    what Tim Larkin is offering... EVERYBODY!

    I speak from experience as I know Tim personally, have
    had him train my own Front Sight instructors, and I
    have ALL of his materials in my at home training
    library!

    The fact that he has made his best package of at home
    instructional DVD's available for you is nothing short
    of astounding!

    Get it here: https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    (I actually told Tim he is foolish to do this because
    he is giving away all his best, most efficient training
    material for next to nothing... And after you receive
    his most deadly, easiest to learn and quickest
    incapacitation techniques on DVD's to use and train
    with at home, there would be no reason for you to
    attend his live seminars, but he wouldn't listen to
    me...)

    Honestly, you probably couldn't get into his courses
    anyway because he is spending much of his time these
    days overseas, training military and special operations
    forces in the techniques required to incapacitate an
    opponent with your bare hands in less than five
    seconds, no matter how much bigger or stronger he is
    than you and whether he has a weapon or not!

    I'm not blowing smoke. Again, this is serious stuff.
    EVERYONE, no matter what your age or physical condition
    can very quickly learn and use Tim Larkin's Target
    Focus Training techniques.

    So here is your chance. Don't blow it because I doubt
    Tim will ever do this again and you won't ever see me
    endorsing another trainer to my list of subscribers.

    Take advantage of Tim Larkin's (At Home) Target Focus
    Training DVD Package by going here:

    https://m260.infusionsoft.com/go/FS/FS/

    You will be glad you did and you will be as equally
    impressed with Tim Larkin as I am.

    Again, I want YOU to take advantage of this offer and
    then share the DVD's with your immediate family so they
    too can command their immediate environment even if
    they do not have their gun with them.

    Well, I have now seen something worse than the Extenze infomercials.

    This guy is scum and needs to be shamed out of business. First for hype and scare tactics but ultimately for using the death of an officer to promote his business.

    Will be sending my email shortly.

    That's why I posted them so that people can see the 'televangalist" promoting style. I have more, but got tired of finding them in my trash bin. There are a few more that are worthy of posting. I have no idea how I got on the list...

    My email (thanks to GSG for the framework)

    Dear Dirtbag,

    I'd use "sir" but clearly you don't qualify.

    I find your use of a video that shows a man's death as a marketing campaign ghoulish and mercenary in the extreme.

    I'm one that won't be using your school and I will vigorously encourage others to avoid you as well.

    Your actions are beyond understanding and are blatantly self-serving.

    You have done the law-abiding gun community a great disservice.

    You should be ashamed of yourself.

    I call on you to cease and desist this detestable marketing ploy immediately and to publish a written apology to Deputy Dinkheller's family and associates.

    Sincerely,

    We'll never know why.

    When we were shown this video, the instructor told us that after the fact the suspect was asked about the encounter. He apparently told the investigators that had the deputy shown a greater use of force at the beginning, he never would have shot him. Personally, I think that the suspect is full of crap. He is just trying to blame the victim here.

    However, a good number of officer deaths start out as physical assaults. So, officers need to be prepared to use a greater amount of force (one level above) than that which is being used against them.

    Though discussion is about the reprehensible use of said video, it should be noted that the deputy had been recently reprimanded for excessive use of force.

    They showed this video a few years ago in one of my update classes at the academy. We have to go once a year for 2 days. A little background about this video and why it was made public. The Deputy was reprimanded a few weeks before this incident because he drew his weapon at a minority and had a complaint lodged against him. When this incident occurred, he hesitated and paid the ultimate price. Several LEOs from that SO were forced to retire after the shooting. You can always put the gun away after you pull it out. That's much better than not using it and getting killed or hesitating because you are thinking about getting in trouble because you are on probation.

    Front Sight uses a marketing technique that boasts that they can teach you to shoot better than most law enforcement in this country. They are banking on the idea that some police don't really care about the tactical angle of the job or that very large PDs have officers that never shot a gun until they entered the police academy.

    Front Sight also produced a tv show that put two of their students up against two LEOs or former military. They would use their style of shooting and training that the students were familiar with and let the cops follow directions. The cops did win most of the time.

    My friend swears on Front Sight and is a life member. When he came back from a class, he was telling me about the instruction and he touched on the fact that they had to do it their way and they would be reprimanded if they performed a drill using a different technique.

    I would only take a class there if I could go for free ONLY to see what they have up their sleeve. After this little scheme, I may not.

    I received a reply (presumably from ****o but probably a lackey) I won't go into it here but suffice to say he isn't burdened by honor, decency nor a conscience. In fact the tone I would describe as smug.
