“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.

Massachusetts Lawmakers Propose Sweeping Gun Restrictions

by Doris Wise Montrose on July 1, 2023

New Gun Restrictions in Massachusetts Make Europeans Appear to Have a 2nd Amendment.

Gun owners in Massachusetts are suddenly staring disaster in the face, thanks to a new measure now under consideration in the Democrat-led state legislature.

Among other things, HD 4420 would expand the definition of already banned “assault weapons” to include a single cosmetic feature that anti-gun Massachusetts find objectionable but have nothing to do with the “lethality” of a firearm. For rifles, that includes a folding, telescopic, thumbhole or detachable stock; pistol grip; forward grip; a threaded barrel or a barrel shroud. And for pistols, it would put on the ban list any handgun with a threaded barrel.

This bill would also require all lawfully possessed firearms to be registered with the state and would require owners to notify the state if a firearm is modified even in the simplest manner, such as adding optics, replacing a trigger or adding grip panels. The legislation proposes to serialize and register all magazines, a consideration that even Connecticut knew was impossible to implement. This includes mandated reporting to the state of any lost or destroyed magazines.
