“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.

Pistol Packing Pedagogues

by Doris Wise Montrose on September 15, 2024

Thirty-two states now allow teachers to possess a firearm on their campuses. More importantly, the Gun-Free School Zones Act must be repealed.

In April, Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a bill into law that allows teachers to carry guns on school grounds. If an educator wants to participate in the program, he or she must go through a permit process that includes emergency medical and communication training, as well as quarterly firearm and annual “live scenario” training. The legislation applies to private and public K-12 schools and colleges.

Also, in April, Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signed a law allowing teacher carry. Armed teachers and staff will be required to undergo 40 hours of training and then be allowed to carry handguns in their classrooms. The legislation also requires criminal and mental health background checks and a psychological examination.

Additionally, a concealed carry bill for teachers is in the works in West Virginia. House Bill 4299 would allow teachers who have concealed carry permits to keep a concealed gun at school. The proposed law also requires them to get training from law enforcement.
