“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.

Wyoming’s gun-free zones repealed as governor lets bill become law

by Doris Wise Montrose on March 3, 2025

CHEYENNE – Many of Wyoming’s gun-free zones will be repealed July 1.

The change comes after public testimony in opposition to the repeal vastly outnumbered that of those supportive of the measure. The push against the measure included a die-in organized by University of Wyoming students in the Capitol Rotunda earlier this week. Students hummed “Amazing Grace” and laid on the floor outside Gov. Mark Gordon’s office.

Gordon penned a letter highly critical of the Wyoming Legislature for its passage of House Bill 172 to accompany his notification the bill would become law without his signature.

“Gun free zones are not repealed — they are now determined exclusively by the legislature,” Gordon wrote.

House Bill 172, “Repeal gun free zones and preemption amendments,” will allow concealed carry in any schools, government buildings and meetings, as well as college and university sporting events that do not serve alcohol.
