“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.

California governor Newsom sees the Second Amendment as a “Suicide Pact”

by Doris Wise Montrose on January 29, 2023

Heads up. Newsom is seen among many Democrats as a potential White House hopeful in 2024

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom said the Second Amendment is “becoming a suicide pact” following the massacre that took place in his state over the weekend.

Following the mass shooting in Monterey Park that left at least 11 dead, Newsom offered a fiery reaction during an interview on Monday’s “CBS Evening News.”

“Nothing about this is surprising. Everything about this is infuriating,” Newsom told CBS’ Norah O’Donnell.

As O’Donnell noted, California has the strictest gun laws in the country. Yet Newsom didn’t take aim at his state’s constitution but instead the Bill of Rights.

“I mean, the Second Amendment is becoming a suicide pact,” Newsom said.
