Alon Stivi on Active Shooter Survival Measures
Internationally respected counterterrorism/security expert Alon Stivi writes:
As part of my continuous efforts in making our community more resilient and better prepared to manage acts of human aggression, I have decided to publicly release a portion of my recorded teaching and share my knowledge on how to survive an Active Shooter/Terrorist attack in a confined space with freedom loving people everywhere.

The lesson is called the Last Resort Active Shooter Survival and I encourage you to pass the YouTube video link to anyone you feel may face a violent criminal or a terrorist someday.
