"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world"
– Nelson Mandela
At first glance, it might seem incredibly odd for us to start our first blog with this quote. Integrated Defense Group is a supplier of Defensive Training and Equipment. Specifically relating to firearms and other weapons, and our first foot forward is a quote that Dirty Harry would vigorously disagree with? Either we’re feeling very lucky… or there is a good reason for you to bear with us and continue reading…
IDG lives in the world of personal defense. Like any other (normal) human being, we would love to live in a society where bad people and things don’t exist. But we choose to live in the real world, the world where no moral crusade will ever eliminate all evil. Where no movement for justice will eradicate all reasons for fear. While we support those individuals that work to make the world a better and safer place, and while we truly want them to succeed, we believe our skills and effort can be better used to affect the world and the good people in it by educating and training them to defend themselves and those closest to them against the evils of this world.
So that’s what we’re going to do! We will continue providing our training classes to arm people with lifesaving education. We will fill our students armory with knowledge and skills that can keep them safe until the world is a fear free place. Against the say so of Dirty Harry, a 44 Magnum isn’t the most powerful piece of your arsenal, but education certainly can and should be.
Sincerely,
Your Friends at Integrated Defense Group
