“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.

Below the Radar: Jaime’s Law Returns

by Doris Wise Montrose on November 27, 2021

“They won’t come with gun bans, they will just come up with all sorts of bureaucratic hoops to jump through to exercise your Second Amendment rights.”

United States – -(AmmoLand.com)- When I warned loyal Ammoland readers that anti-Second Amendment extremists would not give up, even after Second Amendment supporters favorable Supreme Court rulings, I noted there were many legislative avenues they would try short of banning guns. One such avenue was re-introduced recently.

Jaime’s Law, which is named for Jaime Guttenberg, who was killed in the Parkland shooting, is formally known as HR 2715 in the House of Representatives and S 1237 in the Senate, would require background checks for ammunition if enacted. The sponsors of this legislation, Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), are no friends of the Second Amendment. The legislation was introduced in the last Congress and went nowhere.

If the last name Guttenberg sounds familiar, it’s because Jaime’s father has been attacking Second Amendment supporters for their refusal to accept the injustice of being punished for horrific crimes and acts of madness, including what happened at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School, that we did not commit. In this case, the Parkland shooting could have been prevented had the Bumbling Cowards of Broward County shown the bare minimum of competence and courage.
