Ignatius Piazza is the founder and director of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, America's largest firearms training school. Eliminate your preconceived ideas of what Front Sight is, it's not your average gun school. Front Sight is a full experience - a resort town in the making located near Las Vegas, Nevada, complete with firing ranges, an armory, church, school and convenience store. Front Sight is the nation's most successful gun training school. Ignatius Piazza and his cadre of trainers deliver firearms training to more students annually than all other major shooting schools in the nation combined. Ignatius Piazza is clearly in a position to know something about guns and gun training, then. One wouldn't refute his knowledge or expertise as far as the subject of firearms is concerned. So when Ignatius Piazza turns his attention to the U.S. Supreme Court and the case that is up to be ruled on shortly, America should follow suit and likewise pay close attention to the U.S. Supreme Court and our Second Amendment rights which are up for debate by the court.

The case that Ignatius Piazza is so interested in that the U.S. Supreme Court is ruling on is a case concerning Second Amendment rights for all Americans, and is therefore of utmost importance. The U.S. Supreme Court will soon be ruling on whether or not the District of Columbia handgun ban is constitutional, and whether a local government can restrict a citizen from possessing a firearm, as is clearly allowed for in the Second Amendment. The District of Columbia has had a handgun ban in effect for several decades, the particulars of which prevent a citizen of the district to possess a firearm anywhere, and any and all shotguns and rifles must be rendered inoperable in private residences.

The matter which Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight consider so important about this case is that the District of Columbia claimed it had the right to restrict citizens from possessing firearms in their own homes. According to the law, handguns were illegal, even in the privacy of one's own home. While Ignatius Piazza can occasionally see the reasoning behind some gun laws when a citizen is in public, according to him, no government has the right to tell an individual how he may or may not defend his own home.

To listen to Ignatius Piazza, Front Sight or any of their many students, one would get the impression that guns are more than just a weapon - they're a tool. And just like any other tool, they can be used properly or improperly. And just like a car or a set of knives, says Ignatius Piazza, they can be extremely dangerous if the user is not trained. Front Sight alters the hackneyed phrase and says that guns don't kill people, people without gun training kill people.

The leaders of the firearms training world, Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight are looking to the U.S. Supreme Court as it makes one of the most significant decisions concerning the Second Amendment in decades. Gun training, say Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight, is what will keep America safe. Ownership of firearms and firearms training is absolutely necessary, and the U.S. Supreme Court had better understand that.
