“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.

The Left’s Mission to Keep Schools Soft Targets

by Doris Wise Montrose on February 15, 2026

Repealing the federal school gun‑free zones law isn’t a priority for most Republican legislators because it’s not broadly popular with voters (especially parents), it’s politically sensitive, it has limited legislative support, and it doesn’t clearly win many votes.
Apparently, keeping schools ‘gun-free’ is just too controversial to mess with.

There’s clearly an ideological conflict between those who want to afford people the ability to defend themselves in public by banning gun-free zones and those who, regardless of the number of killings that occur in gun-free zones, want to keep people disarmed to prove their political point.

Thomas is a devoted father, lawful gun owner, and well-respected member of his community. Every morning, as he drives his daughter to school, his anxiety level reaches its pinnacle. The school is a gun-free zone, and he knows that if danger were to strike, there would be no one inside able to protect his daughter. The thought weighs on him heavily, a constant shadow over the simple act of dropping her off at school.

Every day, he tries to push the fear aside, as he walks her to the door unarmed. But the anxiety never fully leaves him. Thomas believes in responsibility, in lawfulness, and in the value of life. He also believes the current gun free school zones policies unnecessarily put his daughter at risk.

SUPPORT THE WORK OF JEWS CAN SHOOT

Antisemitism is increasing. So are efforts to restrict fundamental rights. Are you paying attention to how—and why?

Antisemitic incidents are rising across political and ideological lines. The resulting violence is no longer sporadic or abstract; it is a recurring reality confronting Jewish communities with growing frequency.

At the same time, attempts to limit the right to keep and bear arms continue unabated. These efforts are not confined to moments of crisis or tied to any single administration. They represent a long-term, coordinated push that advances regardless of who holds power.

Jews Can Shoot operates where these two trends intersect.

I document and analyze antisemitism and gun control together, over time and in context. Too often, these issues are reported in isolation—treated as disconnected events rather than parts of a broader pattern. Our work focuses on continuity, not headlines.

History is instructive. Measures first justified as “necessary” for Jews have a way of becoming precedents applied far more broadly. Cultural narratives, legal arguments, and policy frameworks rarely stop with their initial targets.

The weekly newsletter provides readers with accurate, well-sourced information to help identify these patterns as they emerge—not after they are entrenched.

This work requires consistent research, monitoring, and editorial effort.

If you value informed vigilance over complacency, I ask for your support.

A one-time or monthly contribution helps ensure that this radar stays on—and independent.

Don’t be a spectator to your own disarmament.
