Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of Front Sight Firearm Training Institute is honoring an entire classroom of survivors of the Virginia Tech massacre with Legacy Lifetime Memberships, memberships valued at over $8,900, to help ensure such violence and sacrifice never need happen to them or their loved ones ever again.

When Dr. Ignatius Piazza of Front Sight Firearm Training Institute heard of the heroic, life-claiming sacrifice made by Liviu Librescu, a 76-year-old Holocaust survivor who was an engineering and math lecturer at Virginia Tech, he decided he would honor the memory of Librescu and the lives of his students by awarding all of Librescu's students Legacy Lifetime Memberships. These Legacy Memberships are easily valued at nearly $9,000, and for good reason; Front Sight is the finest firearm training facility in the nation, turning out more, better trained graduates than all other schools in the nation combined.

The illustrious Legacy Membership includes a lifetime of training in Empty Hand Defense, Edged Weapons, and Front Sight's most popular Defensive Handgun, Tactical Shotgun, and Practical Rifle courses. Each Legacy Membership also includes four certificates that members can provide to family and friends to attend their first course at Front Sight. Such memberships being awarded to each and every student Professor Librescu saved will amount to tens of thousands of dollars in total.

When asked why he was set on such a large donation, the former chiropractor and founder and director of Front Sight said, "Professor Librescu's actions under fire are inspiring. He gave his life to save his students. I want the Librescu family to know that such valor does not go unrecognized or unrewarded. Front Sight will now look after Professor Librescu's students by providing them with a lifetime of training that far exceeds law enforcement and military standards without any bootcamp mentality or drill instructor attitudes. With Front Sight's training, Professor Librescu may rest in peace, knowing his students will have the mindset and ability to protect themselves, their loved ones, and their peers for the rest of their lives. They will never have to run in fear again. His legacy as a professor and protector will live on with each of his students."

And what a legacy it will be: these students, each of whom was forced to flee the scene of a horrific, terrifying scene because of the insanity of one psych-drugged, deranged man, will, upon training at Front Sight, be able to detect, prevent and handle any such situations again. It is largely known that those who know how to handle a gun know how to take responsibility for guns and situations involving them. This writer would trust a police officer with his life in a situation like the one in Virginia; he would trust a Front Sight graduate much more, knowing full well that the training at Front sight far exceeds that of law enforcement and military standards.

Dr. Ignatius Piazza has done America a service. While most of America does nothing more than sit quietly in stunned contemplation of what occurred on that campus a few short days ago, Dr. Piazza and Front Sight Firearms Training Institute offer to those students hurt worst a way to ensure that such an occurrence never happen to them again. He and his staff are offering action. His history of helping others in need as a chiropractor shows in his desire to enable those people who must now be terrified at every turn and twitching at every loud noise to take charge of their lives and take responsibility. We wish to offer those students the best of luck and our heart-felt well wishes and urge them to take Dr. Piazza's offer of this life-changing, lifetime training experience.
