“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.

Gov. Ned Lamont unveils legislative proposals on gun violence

by Doris Wise Montrose on January 29, 2023

Democratic governors always go to more and more restrictions on law-abiding responsible gun owners and never so much as mention criminals.

WATERBURY, Conn. (WTNH) — Gov. Ned. Lamont (D-Conn.) unveiled legislative proposals to eliminate gun violence in Connecticut at a press conference Monday morning at the Waterbury Police Department.

Surrounded by lawmakers, members of law enforcement, state representatives, and mayors of Waterbury, New Haven, and Bridgeport, the governor rolled out what he said would be the first in a series of proposals.

The first proposal includes the following:

Spending an additional $2.5 million on community violence intervention programs;
Banning the open carry of guns in public while continuing to allow concealed carry permits in specific locations;
Limiting handgun purchases to one per month to discourage straw purchases; and
Toughening the state’s ban on so-called ghost guns, which do not have serial numbers and make them nearly impossible to track.

Many could well have been avoided or mitigated, had the perpetrators known their intended victims were equipped with a rifle and twenty bullets apiece, as the Militia Act required here. ...
