We live in America. We have the right to keep and bear arms – without restrictions – regardless of the massive efforts by our government to disarm every one of us. So far not successfully. So the answer is to use our Second Amendment rights and be armed. Well armed. Even if it is NY. The terrorists are following the law. Judaism mandates you to protect yourself and that doesn’t mean staying inside forever.
Remember the Koreans in Los Angeles during the Rodney King riots. They protected their lives and their property with firearms.
A day after Jewish college kids found it necessary to barricade themselves inside a library in the center of Greenwich Village while a mob of repugnant terrorist lovers banged on the locked doors trying to get at them, the message is being broadcast that, on this Sabbath, Jews in Brooklyn had better remain at home.
Stay inside.
Lock the doors.
A pro-Palestinian protest is scheduled for 3 p.m. Saturday in front of the Brooklyn Museum.
That’s a mile from 770 Eastern Parkway, the headquarters of the largest ultra-Orthodox sect in the world, the Lubavitch Hasidim.
Roughly 20,000 observant Jews live around 770, in the neighborhood called Crown Heights.
“Jews should definitely avoid the area,” an ultra-Orthodox news site called COLlive.com said a “security source” had advised them and the Shmira, the local Jewish self-defense association.
