“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.

“Every Communist must grasp the truth, ‘Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun,’”

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- “China can offer lessons to US in protecting human rights,” Global Times admonishes. “The US will have to adopt gun control in the future… Gun ownership in China is strictly regulated, which helps reduce gun-related crimes and deaths.”

Editorialist Yu Ning is right about that strict regulation. Oh, did I say “editorialist”? I should have said “propagandist.” Global Times is an arm of the People’s Daily, and exists to promote the communist Chinese “perspective” on “international issues.” So in many ways, it’s not all that unlike CNN or MSNBC.

Or The New York Times. “The newspaper of record” showed its solidarity with the sentiment echoing “U.S. Gun Violence Draws Scorn in China as a Human Rights Issue,” and actually went a step further in a recent editorial of its own, a follow-up to an earlier call to “Repeal the Second Amendment.
