“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.

ACTIVE SHOOTER: Connecticut Business Prepares People For The Unthinkable

by Jews Can Shoot on July 30, 2017

SOUTHINGTON, Conn. — The state’s high-capacity ammunition magazine law did nothing to prevent Greg Cheverier from pumping 30 rounds into a classroom full of adults in less than 30 seconds.

The video, shot from the perspective of one of Cheverier’s “victims,” doesn’t lie:

Fortunately for the class — which included a New Boston Post reporter — Cheverier’s magazines contained blanks.

“Thirty seconds?” King 33 founder Chris Fields said in faux exasperation as soon as his colleague’s mock-massacre concluded. “You shoot slow.”

Fields founded King 33, located in an old Pratt & Whitney airplane parts warehouse, in late 2012. The facility, devoted to teaching and training how to respond to active shooter situations, is the first of its kind in the state.

Chalk it up to the mysteries of coincidence that Fields, a U.S. Army Special Forces veteran, opened the Aircraft Road facility in Southington right around the same time a deranged active shooter snuffed out the lives of 20 children and six adults at an elementary school in Sandy Hook, just a little more than 30 miles away.
