“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.

First Test of Canada’s Gun ‘Buyback’ Scheme Looks Like a Resounding Failure

by Doris Wise Montrose on November 30, 2025

In early October, Canada’s Liberal government kicked off it’s long-delayed compensated confiscation efforts with a test run in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.

The goal of the “buyback” effort is to take thousands of lawfully purchased semi-automatic firearms from their rightful owners. While the Liberal government has called the scheme “voluntary,” anyone caught possessing one of the banned firearms after the government’s amnesty period expires risks criminal charges.

Because of Canada’s restrictive gun laws, the government had a list of about 200 “assault weapons” in the Cape Breton area, as well as the names of their owners. One official expressed confidence before the pilot program began that “the 200 will be collected through the pilot,” but if not, “then we will have to discuss with the people who were contacted to understand better what is their intention to comply with the law before the end of the amnesty order.”

Well, it looks like they’ve got a lot of discussions to schedule, because according to one local official the government didn’t come close to getting 200 firearms.
