“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.

NYT ‘Sugarcoats’ on Hunter Biden as New Secret Service Gun FOIA Comes Up Empty

by Doris Wise Montrose on January 22, 2023

‘You have to wonder what excuses The Times would strain to come up with if it was discovered Hunter owned “assault weapons.”’

U.S.A. – -(Ammoland.com)- “The Gray Lady’s Hunter whitewash: How the New York Times sugarcoated the Bidens’ dodgy business deals, shared bank accounts and whistleblowers in its 5,300-word ‘investigation’ into the troubled First Son,” a Friday Daily Mail headline reads. “We examine what the ‘paper of record’ got wrong, the shady dealings it minimized and things it missed completely.”

The Times “missing” anything is giving it the benefit of a doubt it hardly deserves after decades of subversion. Most notably exemplified by its promulgation of Walter Duranty, “Stalin’s apologist,” who did his own “sugarcoating” of Soviet-engineered famine in Ukraine and Great Purge show trials, the propaganda giant has been a consistent omitter of inconvenient truths, a cheerleader for communism, and a huge demander of citizen disarmament.

That makes the apologia on guns proffered by The Times in its Hunter Biden puff piece all the more hypocritical, especially when considering the implications.

ATF does NOT make gun laws. ATF is charged with only enforcement of federal gun laws.
