This weekend was a devastating one in Omaha. Investigators are calling it a “very violent and deadly weekend.” At least four people were shot and two men died yesterday. This didn’t happen in one big shooting fiasco; there were a number of shootings throughout the day. The first to die was twenty year old Justin Gaines. Witnesses say he was shot as many as eight times. The other man was thirty eight year old Larcell Starks, who was shot and killed an hour and forty minutes after Gaines. The Omaha shootings are a shock to many people, because the neighborhood and surrounding areas have been known to be peaceful and quiet. It just enforces the fact that you just never know. (more…)

Omaha Shootings Shock Residents
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009Ensure Your Safety With Front Sight
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009In New Orleans, a seventy six year old man was killed. Henry Barber was stabbed to death inside his apartment, and was found twenty four to forty eight hours after he was murdered. At this point, no suspect has been identified. Many times, elderly people are targeted for break ins and murders because they are supposedly more feeble and easier to overtake than, say, a strong thirty four year old man. Dr. Ignatius Piazza wants to show you how to not let age or strength stand in the way of your safety. His gun training school, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, trains people from all over the nation, young and young at heart, strong and not so strong, men and women, even physically disabled people how to safely and correctly use a gun for self defense. After your first self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight, you will be able to handle any attack, even if your attacker is twice your size and half your age. Do not let the idea that it is “too late to start gun training” get inside your head! It is never too late to learn how to protect yourself! (more…)
Front Sight – For When Criminals Don’t Get Caught
Monday, November 16th, 2009September 1995. A woman’s body was found, wrapped in a sleeping bag, killed by a gunshot to the head. October 1995. Another murder, this time the woman was found just outside of a state Forest. Neither of the women were ever identified – and police seem to think that the two murders are somehow linked, because the women appear to be related. Investigators have not stopped trying to solve this mystery, but like a scary novel turned real life, nothing else has come of it. Has the killer struck again? No one really knows, because no one knows who the killer is. It’s been fourteen years. That person could be the person standing behind you in the grocery store line. It could be your new next door neighbor that seems so friendly. Who knows? Prepare for the uncertainty in life with self defense training and gun training from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. (more…)
Gun Training – Stay Safe – Anytime, Anywhere
Sunday, November 15th, 2009Brian Dugan is a man who faces the death penalty. Back in 1983 he murdered a ten year old named Jeanine Nicarico. He broke into her home while she was home sick from school by kicking in the door, kidnapped her, raped her and then beat her to death. This crime happened in 1983… but he wasn’t arrested until 1985, when he abducted and murdered a seven year old girl. He tried to plead guilty to a few other attacks that happened in the 1980s to save a couple of other guys that were given the death sentence because of Nicarico’s murder. Basically what he and his attorney are trying to show the judge and the public is that even though Dugan has an extensive history of violent crimes, sexual assault and murder, his “taking the place” of the other men deems him worthy of not getting the death penalty, because this shows “integrity.” Really?

Front Sight Keeps Your Neighborhood Safe
Saturday, November 14th, 2009In Springfield, Massachusetts, people are starting to get the hang of hearing random gunshots. The recent Springfield shootings have not been a surprise to residents. A citizen even said “When you live around here in the neighborhood you hear it a lot. A lot of stuff happens around here. You just get used to it after a while.” Apparently this week brought about the second fatal shooting in less than a month. Police have even taken extra measures to help protect the town, but citizens admit that whether or not the police get involved, violence and shooting is still going to happen, because, as some say, “people don’t care about the police.” It is sad that these people feel like gun violence is just something that they need to accept and get used to. What happens if someone with a gun approaches you? Is it okay to just be “used to it” and accept the fact that it is your turn to get shot? No! Protect yourself with gun training from Front Sight Firearms Training Institute! (more…)
Front Sight Helps You Keep Your Right
Monday, November 9th, 2009Supporters of gun control seem to think that if the availability of guns is reduced, so will school shootings, and our kids and teens will be safer. If guns are banned, young people won’t be able to get their hands on them! Right? Let’s rethink this for a minute and then consider why gun training is a better solution than gun control. (more…)
The First Time is the Charm with Front Sight!
Monday, November 9th, 2009The third time is the charm… or so many people hope. You see, there is this guy who has been given the death sentence. For the third time. Von Clark Davis shot and killed his girlfriend, Suzette Butler, in 1983. He was given the death penalty in 1984 but it was relieved. I don’t really know why she got in a relationship with him in the first place, especially without a self defense training or gun training background, because he was on parole during their time together… he had originally been charged for stabbing and killing his wife. Seems like a catch to me! Anyhow, Davis seems to be immune to hear that he is being sentenced to die, because every time it happens, something comes up and his sentence is released. And once again, it looks as if he is going to fight for his life. His lawyer asked for a sentence of thirty years to life. What does this mean to us? It means that if he is given a lesser sentence than the death penalty, technically, he could be up for parole again in a matter of years. Back on the streets. Back to our women. Don’t turn your back.

Help End Spousal Abuse – Front Sight Needs YOU
Sunday, November 8th, 2009America bids a melancholy farewell to the beautiful former swimsuit model, Jasmine Fiore. Her body was recently found in Orange County, naked in a dumpster, with all of her teeth and fingers missing. She appeared to be strangled. Do you know how she was identified? The model’s breast implants had serial numbers on them! To me, that is just a sad and humiliating thing. Not only did the killer brutally murder her, but he tried to conceal her identity by taking her teeth and fingers. Her murderer is suspected to be her husband, reality TV contestant Ryan Jenkins, whose suicidal body was found shortly after Fiore’s death. He is known from his appearance on VH1′s “Megan Wants a Millionaire”… but one look at his past gives off the idea that this guy was a shady character. He was charged a couple months ago with battery because he hit Fiore. Before that, he was diagnosed with a sex addiction and charged with domestic violence and assault. Gross. We need to protect ourselves from guys like this! (more…)
Gun Training Prevents Negligent Homicide
Sunday, November 8th, 2009Yet another story that demonstrates the importance of gun training. Once again, guns in trained hands offer superior protection when it comes to self defense, but guns are serious weapons. If you do not have the proper training, you could end up like nineteen year old Hector Quintero. In Galt, California, Quintero shot and killed nineteen year old Gerardo Briseno, allegedly accidentally. Investigators say that Briseno’s death could be due to Quintero mishandling the gun or not knowing how to use a gun correctly. Now, as a result, Quitnero faces negligent homicide charges. (more…)
