“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.

Montana Gun Bill Would Allow Concealed Carry at Universities

by Doris Wise Montrose on January 10, 2021

Virginia Tech, where 30 died (the killer died, too, but I’m not including him in this number) was a gun-free zone. Had it not been, the likelihood of this happening would have been slim and none.

HELENA, Mont (AP) — A new bill under consideration in the Montana House would relax restrictions on guns in the state by allowing concealed carrying of firearms on college campuses.

Republicans, who hold majorities in the state House and Senate, have prioritized the measure amid renewed hope it will be signed into law this year with a GOP governor in office for the first time in 16 years.

Numerous bills to relax gun regulations in Montana have been vetoed by Democratic governors in the past decade.

The latest measure would make the state safer by doing away with “gun free zones,” Rep. Barry Usher, a Republican from Billings, argued Wednesday during a hearing on the measure. Usher is chair of the judiciary committee.
