Defense Against Lone Wolves: What Police Need to Know About Domestic Terrorism OHP
PROUDLY SPONSORED BY THE OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL.
This course is CLEET certified for 16 hours of credit.
TOPIC: Domestic terror attacks are increasing in frequency and lethality. Here in the West, attacks
in Europe and America are happening so fast it’s hard for security professionals to keep up.
When an attack hits home, it's not the CIA or FBI who are first on the scene, it's the local police.
They are on the front lines saving lives, protecting the scene and securing evidence.
However, the police are also becoming targets as well. With the increase of IED’s, Active Shooter
engagements, and ambush attacks from jihadists and other leftist groups, it’s never been a more
dangerous time to be a police officer.
There’s a misconception that nothing can be done to prevent these attacks, but that’s wrong. The
fact is that local authorities are in a better position to intercept and thwart these domestic attacks
than their federal counterparts. But it takes knowledge. And it takes training.
The best way to prevent an attack is to intercept it before it happens. You can't do that if you don't know what you're looking for.
