“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.

SLIPPERY STUFF SOME POLITICIANS SMELL AS BAD AS THEY FEEL

by Doris Wise Montrose on March 15, 2021

Tyranny is the one, only, and sole goal of all the anti-gun efforts and groups on every single gun control legislation.

On an unexpectedly sunny day in a faraway place, four fit, skilled and semi-smart young men decided to augment their combat rations with some fat, tasty-lookin’ fishies stranded in the ebbing elbow of a placid stream. The lads had no hooks and lines, but those seemingly indolent sun-stunned swimmers looked easy enough to grab and toss up on the bank. No problem, right?

An hour later, the United States Marine Corps had been soundly defeated by a couple dozen cousins of your basic down-home catfish.

They were just too slippery, like they’d been coated with SuperLube. The harder we grabbed ’em, the slicker they splooped right outta our hands. We agreed a couple of grenades would have solved the problem, but under the circumstances, that approach was manifestly “inappropriate.”
