“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.

Nevada Gun-Free Zone Shooting: ‘Run, Hide, Fight’…With What?

by Doris Wise Montrose on December 17, 2023

Advice to University of Nevada students to ‘Run. Hide. Fight” makes no sense if state law prohibits weapons on college campuses

As details emerge about Wednesday’s deadly triple shooting at the University of Nevada campus in Las Vegas, the Washington Post is reporting that the university sent out an alert urging everyone to “evacuate to a safe place. RUN-HIDE-FIGHT.”

But a look at Nevada statute regarding the possession of dangerous weapons on property belonging to the State System of Higher Education reveals that firearms, dirks, daggers, switchblades, blackjacks, billy clubs, metal (brass) knuckles, or even a pneumatic gun are all prohibited.

So what, exactly, were people on campus expected to “fight” with?

There have been efforts in many states to allow lawful concealed carry on college campuses when students or staff are licensed to carry. College administrators are typically against the idea.

"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 or mitigated, had the perpetrators known their intended victims were equipped with a rifle and twenty bullets apiece, as the Militia Act required here. ... If a few hundred Jewish fighters in the Warsaw Ghetto could hold off the Wehrmacht for almost a month with only a handful of weapons, six million Jews armed with rifles could not so easily have been herded into cattle cars." — Silveira v Lockyer, (9th Cir. 2003) (Kozinski, J. dissenting.)
