“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.

Should citizen militias prep for post-election mayhem?

by Doris Wise Montrose on September 17, 2020

Not out of the realm of reality considering what we’re seeing across the country.

Last week in this space, I illustrated how liberalism has been nothing more than the soft-socialist wedge radical leftists have used over the last several decades to incrementally advance a megalithic socialist state. Further, that our 50 years of employing tolerance, fair play, guarded rhetoric and capitulating to liberal demands have given rise to the radical factions that are spearheading the budding communist revolution we see taking place around us, the most notable example being the violent demonstrations that are taking place in many of our cities.

Early on in the process, I pointed out the imperative for President Donald Trump handling this unpleasantness with extreme caution, lest his action or inaction be interpreted as tacit support for racism and police brutality against black Americans (the pretext being used to justify the rioting).

Recently, the failure of Democratic governors, mayors and other officials to act against rioters in these beleaguered localities prompted conservative commentator and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza to address the issue in starkly sobering fashion. In an interview earlier this week, D’Souza said that ongoing rioting could lead to the rise of citizen militias if societal tensions are not quickly deescalated.
