Wokeness, Public Safety, BLM, & Antifa with Matt Thornton (Full Series)
Wokeness, Public Safety, BLM, & Antifa with Matt Thornton (Full Series)
According to Matt Thornton, “The only thing that’s ever made the world more peaceful is the ability to engage in violence, to threaten violence, or to protect people from violence.” Thornton explores the topic in his new book and shares a sample of the issues in this video, including the misdirected “defund the police” movement, the effect of ideological media narratives, the suppression of civil discourse, and data about crime, criminals, and police shootings.
Matt Thornton has taught functional martial arts for more than 30 years. He holds a 5th-degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and is the founder of Straight Blast Gym International, training champion MMA fighters and world-class law enforcement instructors. His latest book is The Gift of Violence: Practical Knowledge for Surviving and Thriving in a Dangerous World.
