The elderly and people with physical disabilities tend to be victimized by criminals much more frequently than other groups of people. Their need for self defense training is strong, but unfortunately, many folks are not strong enough physically to stick with serious marital arts training. Many folks try to train in self defense classes and then re-injure themselves. I know. I have been there myself. What is the solution? It is certainly not to remain vulnerable to criminal attack! If an able bodied, physically strong, criminal attacker launches an attack on an elderly or physically disabled person, the marked disparity of force in the attacker's favor puts the target of the attack at a grave disadvantage. This is opportunistic criminal victimization. In order to even the odds and avoid being victimized, if the potential victim cannot retreat, he or she needs an effective force multiplier that he or she can operate. That would be a firearm. However, the reality is that a handgun or any other firearm is not a magic talisman. If you are not proficient with it, it is nothing but an expensive piece of metal or plastic that could be used against you! Unfortunately, few defensive handgun instructors have special expertise in training the elderly and physically disabled. We do. I, Dr. Bruce Eimer, licensed psychologist and NRA Certified Handgun Instructor, specialize in just that. I myself cope with multiple physical disabilities and despite this, I am an avid shooter and concealed carry practitioner. I am the Editor of the Armed Senior Citizen Column in Concealed Carry Magazine.
