The INRP method students remember
Every question in the course comes back to four checks: Imminent, Not lawful (the other person’s force is unlawful), Reasonable belief, Proportional response. If one is missing, force is not justified. Students learn to say it out loud and apply it to a scenario they have never seen.
Who it is for
- Illinois concealed carry and firearms instructors who want a clean use-of-force block
- Range and club trainers adding a law-and-decision-making evening class
- Church security and workplace safety trainers who need a plain-language legal foundation
