“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.

Seattle Passes ‘Gun Violence’ Tax — Gun Sales Plummet, Violent Crime Rate Soars

by Jews Can Shoot on June 20, 2017

The city of Seattle, Washington, passed a controversial “gun violence” tax on the sale of all firearms and ammunition in 2015. Critics argued that violent crime would increase, and gun dealers would either close up shop or move out of city limits.

Proponents of the law, which went into effect on January 1, 2016, argued that neither would happen and the law would generate from $300,000 to $500,000 on an annual basis, which, in 2016, was earmarked to “fund a study of gunshot victims, including medical and behavioral interventions.”

The critics were right.

As reported by The Seattle Times, gun shop owners began leaving the city after the law passed.

The last large gun dealer left in Seattle told Fox News Politics that storewide sales at his Outdoor Emporium are down 20 percent, while gun sales have declined 60%. “I’ve had to lay off employees because of this,” he said, “it’s hurting us, it’s hurting our employees.”
