“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.

Questions over new handgun carry law from safety experts

by Jews Can Shoot on June 26, 2019

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — It’s a law that was supposed to go into effect in just one week, changing what it takes to carry a concealed gun in Tennessee, but as the state worked out the program’s details, the bill’s start date was eventually moved to January of 2020.

The new law would remove the requirement for an eight-hour in-person class to get a concealed carry handgun permit — leaving that requirement in place only for a new “enhanced” handgun permit, meaning someone could carry a concealed weapon after taking an online course for as little as two hours.

Art Cason with Royal Range says he’s worried some may get approved without understanding the criminal and civil consequences behind carrying a gun.
