“We can either live in a paranoid politically correct world frantically trying not to offend the Hitlers and Mohammeds, and blaming their victims when they kill, or we can be free men and women who have chosen to take the power to defend our rights into our own hands.

While a thousand organizations use the Holocaust as a platform for speeches about tolerance, Children Of Jewish Holocaust Survivors [Jews Can Shoot] is conducting firearms training… Freedom is not defended with empty idealism easily perverted into appeasement of evil, but with the force of arms.”

All too many of the other great tragedies of history - Stalin's atrocities, the killing fields of Cambodia, the Holocaust, to name but a few - were perpetrated by armed troops against unarmed populations. Many could well have been avoided mitigated, had the perpetrators known their intended victims were equipped with a rifle and twenty bullets apiece... If a few hundred Jewish fighter in the Warsaw Ghetto could hold off the Wehrmacht for almost a month with only a handful weapons, six million Jews armed with rifles could not so easily have been herded into cattle cars.

They seem to think that everyday Americans can’t help stop attacks. But it is getting hard to ignore that

CNN: Do You Think Israeli Citizens Should Be Defending the Streets w/Guns?

by Jews Can Shoot on October 30, 2015

We all knows guns can’t stop violence. Israelis defending themselves with guns beats them having to defend themselves with umbrellas, selfie sticks and nunchucks as has happened during the wave of racist Muslim violence. But armed Israeli civilians hits CNN in two places. There’s the whole “Muslims being prevented from stabbing Israelis” problem. And it

by Jews Can Shoot on October 30, 2015

“We have become like Sodom and Gemorrah,” the judge lamented when referring to the hard kick the Arab woman terrorist received from a Jewish bystander after an attempted stabbing.

Netanyahu’s Call For Civilians To Be Armed Has Saved Lives in Israel

by Jews Can Shoot on October 30, 2015

The current “wave of terror” where Palestinians attack Israeli citizens has taken at least 10 lives, but the death toll might very well have been higher if it wasn’t for armed civilians. Attackers are much more likely to die because civilians have armed themselves in recent weeks. Fatalities among Palestinians more than double that of stabbing
