“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.

Poland is Wisely Training the Next Generation to Defend Their Homeland

by Doris Wise Montrose on January 15, 2025

While much of Europe continues to shy away from firearms, Poland has taken a bold step forward, implementing mandatory firearms training for school students in response to growing concerns over Russia’s aggression. According to reports from Express U.S., the Polish Ministry of Education and Science launched the program to equip young people with the skills and mindset necessary to defend their country–all lessons even our own country should heed.

The initiative began in the 2023-2024 school year, following a transitional period after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The Ministry declared that “current challenges and threats require supplementing the goals of education” with state defense training, shooting skills and preparedness for hostilities. The training starts in primary schools, focusing on safe weapon handling, and progresses to secondary schools, where students learn the basics of shooting through practical exercises using air guns, replicas and laser systems.

While students aren’t training with live ammunition, the importance of the program isn’t lost on those involved.
