“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.

Brazil Government Doubles Down on Pro-Gun Stance After School Shooting

by Doris Wise Montrose on March 30, 2019

“The logic of the left is always the same: If a crazy guy uses guns to kill people, the solution is to take guns away from people who have nothing to do with what happened,” said Rogério Mendonça, deputy leader of the governing bloc in the lower house of Congress. “Now imagine if a decent person had been armed at that school. They could have stopped the attack from ending in the bloody way it did.”

SÃO PAULO—When a gunman slaughtered 16 schoolchildren in Scotland in 1996, Britain effectively banned handguns. Australia, Canada, and Germany also tightened gun controls in response to their own brutal school massacres over recent decades. New Zealand is vowing tougher measures, too, in response to this week’s massacre in two Christchurch mosques.

But as Brazil reels from one of its worst-ever school shootings, the response from President Jair Bolsonaro’s right-wing administration and his supporters this week has been the opposite: What Brazil needs, they say, is more guns.

In a Columbine-style massacre near São Paulo on Wednesday, two young men killed eight people, mostly students at their former school, shocking a nation already accustomed to endemic and barbaric violence.
