Is Dr. Piazza for real?

[MP301]

1) I agree. Advertising the presence of guns is a very bad idea.

2) Front Sight has excellent training.

3) Front Sight's business model appears fatally flawed (multi-level marketing of sorts)

4) Havoc: Does your license plate say "Right 2 Keep And Bear Arms", or is it "Right 2 Kill ABBA"?

Just curious.

I used to think the marketing was flawed because I didnt like it. However, for having flawed marketing, that sucker (FS) is sure getting bigger and bigger. Something like 820 students at classes a couple weeks ago? That is incredible.

So, since its in MY best interests that FS stays healthy and growing because I plan on squeezing every last bit i can out of my Lifetime membership..I guess Ill ignore the marketing

My alarms have four legs and tails. Once they are done barking they'll eat the burglar.



That said, while his school seems to be delivering high quality training, Piazza himself comes off as more loopy with each passing day. His "performance" at the CRPA annual dinner was (according to those there) downright assinine.

I agree. The problem with people with large enough ego to pull off something like FS successfully, is that they tend to step on their own dick once in a while. He is prone to the occasional screw up, but he seems to learn from his mistakes so that the next screw up is something different!

I completely seperate the two...FS and Piazza...because for one thing, he is never at the school. The folks he has running things are great and know what they are doing.

I think anyone who uses the excuse that they dont like Piazza as a reason not to go are only hurting themselves. Obviously as many people are going to classes, the few hold outs are not going to make or break the place....

The whole point of the alarm sign is to alert would-be burglers that when they break into your home the cops get an automated call-out and they'll wake up the whole neighborhood. The gun sign just alerts that that you have cool stuff to steal and to wait until you're gone and don't forget the tools, they may have a safe to crack.

I think putting both signs up is a better deterrent than either one alone.

I am not sure if I would put a sign up saying this house has guns but I would and did invest in an alarm/siren that sounds like the local fire department is next door. It will iritate my neighbors enough to bring out their guns and the cops. Forget that silent alarm crap because good thieves are gone long before the cops arrive. Also if the robber is dumb enough to stay inside by the time he come out to armed neighbors and cops he is deaf anyway and might get shot because he could not read lips. PS- if I am home the dog is trained to wake me up and get behind me so it does not get shot. The dog isn't stupid.
