“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.

Avoiding Guns in Presidential Debates Won’t Last Forever

by Doris Wise Montrose on July 6, 2024

No matter who the Democrat candidate turns out to be, Trump needs to learn to talk 2A, and it’s up to “Gun Owners for Trump” to demand his ear.

Aside from a brief retort about Hunter Biden being a felon, Thursday’s much-watched presidential debate on CNN between Donald Trump and Joe Biden avoided the one subject that both candidates and the establishment news media have made great political hay over, guns. That makes fair the question “Why?”

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms thinks it knows. Per founder Alan Gottlieb, referencing questions it had challenged the moderators to ask, “The simple fact is that if the man we saw on stage had been asked to explain his campaign against guns, he would have been shooting blanks.” Perhaps, but that’s not the only consideration.

The race here is for “independents,” voters who haven’t made up their minds, that is, the least qualified to have a say in things. If a voter doesn’t know by now that this is a binary existential equation, and if they’re that unfixed in their principles to where either is acceptable, an accurate term for that is “citizenship malpractice.” And to corroborate that, their right to keep and bear arms doesn’t even register as a priority.

It’s time to fight back. It’s time for Jews to protect themselves.
