“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.”

Daniel Greenfield / Sultan Knish blog

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.

2016 California Legislative Grades

by Jews Can Shoot on October 5, 2016

This year, the Second Amendment has been under constant attack in California. The anti-gun bills that were passed were so horrendous that FPC coined a new term – “Gunpocalypse” – to describe them.

Our grades are based on votes that Assemblymembers and Senators took and the bills that they authored or coauthored. Members were given an A+ if they authored a pro-gun bill and had a perfect voting record. A+ Members earn the distinction of “FPC Defender of Liberty.”

On the flip side, Members were given the ranking of TYRANT if they showed a commitment to civilian disarmament and also authored or supported a “Gunpocalypse” bill, meaning a bill that literally strips guns away from law-abiding individuals.

There are no moderates in the battle for the Second Amendment, as the grades reveal. The majority of legislators either received an A, F, or TYRANT grade on our report card.

It has been an uphill battle so far, but despite the assault on our gun rights we have had success in convincing the Legislature and Governor to kill many of the anti-gun bills. As for the ones that were signed into law, FPC is committed to continue the fight against them.
