“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.”

Daniel Greenfield / Sultan Knish blog

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.

So You Want To Have A Conversation About Gun Control?

by Jews Can Shoot on February 21, 2018

Let me share my background.

I have 25 years of Expert Marksman ratings from the US Army and US Air Force, with rifle. I also qualified with Pistol more than once, and scored Expert with that as well.

I have shot the M16, M16A1, M16A2, M4, M4A1, M15 (old USAF revolver).

I have shot the M60 General Purpose Machine Gun, the M2 Machine Gun (Browning .50 caliber).

I have shooting trophies from the US Army.

I have served as an armorer–issuing and maintaining weapons.

I have served on the range as a line safety NCO, ammunition point NCO, range NCO, and primary marksmanship instructor.

I’ve served as a weapons courier (responsible for transporting weapons) and as an armed courier (transporting other items while armed).

None of those actions are particularly impressive. They’re only intended to show that I’m professionally qualified with weapons in the military.

As a civilian, I have beta-tested and reviewed firearms and accessories for manufacturers, furnishing promotional reviews, and feedback when the weapon did not perform as stated. I’ve even received firearms as gifts both as payment after the fact, and just because they think I’m an awesome writer.
