Free course will be offered once each month
The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office will provide free active-shooter defense training beginning next month. The course will be presented by deputies who have been certified as instructors in Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events, a curriculum developed by Texas State University that has become a national standard.
Since January, Putnam deputies have trained more than 1,000 people at schools, businesses and civic organizations. Beginning Oct. 11, the three-hour course will be offered to the public at 6 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month at the Putnam County Bureau of Emergency Services, 112 Old Route 6, Carmel.
This really scares me, as does all of the White House and the folks who must now consider defense through shooting. This sounds and feels like the rise of fascism in the U.S.
