It is interesting to me that since last night when I posted it how few people actually read the linked article and only read the subject line. I took the subject line from Foxnews as their teaser to their story. That being said, a question was asked as to why so many I presume American Jews seem to anti gun. I will attempt to answer.
I believe that the thought of the Anti-Gun Jew being the majority of American Jews is really a myth anymore, propagated by some stereo types from the early part of the last century. At the Early part of the last century a very large percentage of the American Jewish population was comprised of European immigrants living in and around NYC. As we know NYC passed the Sullivan act in order to keep arms out of the hands of the various new immigrant groups. They were generally poor and could not afford a permit, along with the Irish, the Italians, etc. They brought with them the philosophy that had helped them survive in Europe, that is be in offensive and try to get along without bringing attention to yourself. To this end you remained unarmed. When one is unarmed you sure hope everyone around you is too. This sort of lead to a belief of non violence on the domestic side of things. You really hoped as I said before that no one would try to do you harm and relied on the neighborhood cop that knew everyone in the area and really did care about protecting folks. In many senses the bulk of the Jewish folks in the US were unaffected by the events in Europe in the Mid 20th Century. They therefore carried on this philosophy and tried to pass it to their children. The rise of neo nazi hate groups later in the century changed this to a degree as well as Jewish folks moving out of the major eastern cities and throughout the country where firearms use was more common. I would venture that today the anti gun percentage of the Jewish population is relatively small but quite vocal in their views. They still cling to that early NYC philosophy. The majority of Jewish folks I believe to be pro gun. I live in an area that is about 50% Jewish here in our suburban paradise. I would venture that most of the Jewish people I know have at least one firearm, and that includes people who are probably quite liberal in all of their other political views. They have seen through Israel's emergence that strength and preparedness for the unthinkable is better than blind hope that being unthreatening will deter some future tyrant. Unfortunately, some in an older generation still adhere to the earlier ideal. It would be wonderful if people did not need weapons for defense, but that is simply not true. The younger generation influenced in part by those who survived the European experience know this. Unfortunately the wealthy and now powerful may not as they were not exposed to this. The later immigrants being poor were not of the same social class and did not associate in the same circles. Same however can be said of most of the other 20th century immigrant groups that gathered in cities in the late 19th and earlier 20th centuries. Their experiences are similar, and so are their support of these issues of collectivism vs individualism. They are not bad people, just products of their experience. This collective experience v individual experience over generations has a great impact on the overall psyche of an area. When my family came to Ohio in the late 18th century there were few roads, no cops and a Sheriff was a few hours away by fast horse. This brings the need for self reliance that is passed down through the generations. I venture that many other families had a similar experience. I contrast that with the Jewish portion of my family that came through NY to Cleveland ie one urban center to another. Had it not been for the rise in crime in the 20th century, they would have seen no reason to arm for self defense. As it happens they did. I venture that now I know very few Jewish folks who don't own at least one firearm. It may be a hunting or skeet gun, a pistol for defense, or a .22 for plinking. It might even be an SUR or a whole bunch of everything. I would venture that those who base some anti Jewish sentiment on anti gun leanings are barking up the wrong dog. Anti Gunners come in every flavor, that certain members of one group seem more vocal about it is, well common throughout many segments of society. The myth however runs deep while the reality is usually far less insidious. |

Quoted: So what? There are a lot of people that are really antigun and are not jewish at all. And the argumentations you listed and they use to make their (silly) antigun statements are the same one used by any other antigun people. When someone is shortminded, there is no difference if it is jewish, muslim, christian, baptist or whatsoever... it's just shortminded! View Quote The difference is that those in leadership positions like feinstein, schumer, many rabbis, and the ADL, use the "never forget" and "nazi" images of gun owners to get their followers to push for increasing gun control. |

You are looking for Jews with guns?

Amazing how Scarecrow is so quick to defend muslims, making sure no one suggests that they are ALL terrorists.
And when called an anti-semite, he claims to not be anti-jew, but anti-ISRAEL. Then he posts this: [b]"Whait until you hear the story about Jews with planes!"[/b] [img]www.roderuscustom.tzo.com/cgi-bin/ib3/iB_html/uploads/post-6-41448-LIBERTy.jpg [/img] Quite a liar. So quick to associate ALL jews with a single act. Not a surprise to anyone who's read his inane posts. |

I've asked this question before, but haven't ever gotten a response from any of the "Israel (or Jews) is responsible for the sinking of the USS Liberty, therefor the Arabs are wonderful" crowd. Maybe this time.
Scarecow, I can understand a US citizen being upset about the Liberty sinking. I was upset about it. But I was even more upset about the bombing of the Marine HQ in Lebanon some years later. Why more? Because more Americans died. I was upset about the bombings of US Embassies in Africa by Muslim extremists. Now you're a Canadian, so I'm a little puzzled about why you are so upset about the Liberty. Be that as it may, why are you not upset, or at least not upset enough to print a fancy poster, about the Arab atrocities against Americans? Is it somehow OK with you when Arabs kill Americans? Give me a reasoned and reasonable answer, and I'll give it some thought. Ignore the question, or give me a smartass answer, and I'll start printing up the troll logo every time you post. |

Quoted: Let me at least have a stab at answering 1 Patriot's questions about why so many Jews are anti gun. Those of us who are Jews who do own guns have probably had to contend with this more than anyone, because just about all of us have had Jewish friends or relatives act like we were wierdos for being gun owners. Most American Jews have ancestry in Eastern Europe, or Germany, where (in earlier times) Jews were forbidden to own guns. The only gun a Jew in that environment ever saw was in the hands of the authorities, who were using them to harass the Jews in the ghetto. To some extent that, I think, colored the basic perception. You know, gun = something bad for a Jew. Secondly, game hunting is a no no for observant Jews. All meat has to be ritually slaughtered, which you can't do with hunted game, so there goes another reason to own a gun. Now, this is changing. Every year I encounter more and more Jews who either own a gun, or are considering getting one. The number of Jewish members on this site is, I think, a real indicator of that change. My hunch is that 20 years ago you would have had less than 1/2 the Jewish posters that we have now. I'd have been here, because 20 years ago I was an AR15 owner[:D]. Heck I'd have been on an M1 (rifle and carbine) site 40 years ago; but 40 years ago my best childhood buddy and I were the only two Jews I knew that owned guns. No, I hate the Feinsteins and Schumers. But I also hate the Conyers's and the McCains as well, for the same reasons everyone else on this board does. View Quote That explains it a little better to me. Shamayim, I wish you, and the other jews with guns, were more of a missionary for RKBA to your fellow Jews. Bill |

We try, heliflyer, we try. Well, I've got at least one of them semi converted; my wife. Even tho raised in Israel, she made it very clear that she was marrying me in spite of the fact that I was a gun owner, not because of it. It shortly got even harder for her, when I took a position as securuty officer/armorer at a federal agency and she had to watch me putting on a 9mm every day.
Things have changed for her ever since 1) she became a mother 5 years ago, and 2) 9/11 happened. She's begun to realize that it's a violent world sometimes, and decent people need to be ready and able to protect themselves and their families. She hasn't quite gotten to learning to shoot herself (and I don't push it), but she's raised no objections to my teaching our 5 year old how to shoot when he's a bit older. That's kind of what I see happening in other parts of the Jewish community. I certainly hope it continues. |

Actually, all Jews own guns. It's a secret, don't tell anyone. Seriously, Shamayim hit the nail on the head. My parents survived the Holocaust and my Dad had me shooting at 8 years old. Tomorrow afternoon my 2 oldest, 12 and 10 will begin NRA training. In our community there are at least as many conservative Jews as Dems, and maybe more. Half of the Jews I know are armed. There is a large community of Jews from Israel and South Africa here who all had military service at one time or another. Most of them own guns.

Unfortunaley there are anti-gunners in every ethnic and religeous group. Lets not single out the Jewish people on this site. They are here because they believe in the Right to bear arms and the constitution. I am ashamed of the anti-gun Italian politicians. They make my blood boil. All progunners, whether Jewish, black, hispanic, catholic or other wise, must stick together for our cause. All of US as one voice will drive those commie anti-gunners out of office, and back to the rocks that they crawled out from under. God-bless AMERICA!

Shall we see what it is I actually wrote, rather than re-inventing it and going from there. Yes? Okok. Play nice everyone. Heated debate is fine [red]but let's watch the temptation to slip into racist slurs, ok?[/red] View Quote Readers will note the [b]cautionary[/b] (as opposed to punitive) nature of my comment. I don't insist there has actually been an infraction, but express concern that it is right around the corner. [i]"Rag-head"[/i] is sufficiently broad (covering a wide set of cultures, traditions, and religions which espouse fashions that encourage the use of cloth headdresses from Hindu to Muslim to...) and sufficiently derogatory to be "right on the line if not over" in my book, particularly when married with the suggestion that all (or most) "rag-heads" are terrorists. Racism is a strict no-no and if people can't cope with that, well, there's always full-auto.com or a variety of other fora to explore those aspects of your personality among like-minded (if that's a good word combination) individuals. To quote a marine I knew: "It's out there... but dis ain't it." I realize that there will now be the natural temptation to debate the definition of "rag" of "head" of "rag-head" of "slur" of "slip" of "temptation" of "tendency" of "race" of "racism" and of "ism" and of "is." I know this will include citations to authorities including Webster's, Black's Law Dictionary, the Bible and the Torah and the Koran. In resisting this temptation try to remember that arguing semantics about such things is a slippery-Klinton move ("depends on what the definition of is is") and probably not worthy of an AR15.com member. I'm also quite certain some clever member(s) will wish to ask after the patriotism or humanity of anyone enforcing the conduct codes outlined here in favor of a group of which a small subset might actually include a terrorist or two (though I'll note for the record that none of the boarding area pictures I've seen show the 9/11 murderers wearing any cloth headdresses). This too is the kind of noise that is more worthy of the least attractive qualities of say, John Ashcroft (i.e. "If you don't agree with me you must be a terrorist/inhuman lout/European.") much less the best qualities of the productive AR15.com member (the latter being the first and perhaps last qualities that AR15.com members strive to let show when posting here). Either of these directions is a quick path to a thread lock and a moderator warning- particularly comments about the fact that I'm European (and therefore obvious inhuman/uncaring/a heathen/anti-American). One might, for example, ask snidely, "What does it take to make some people angry?" I will give you a head start for your own personal debate (please conduct it in the privacy of your own home). When I'm paying attention I rarely capitalize "god," I [b]ALWAYS[/b] capitalize American. Really, don't make me into a kindergarten teacher. Please? First off we do keep track of such things and I hate using the red pencil in the attendance book. Second, this thread is important. I'd like it to stay active. Unclear what's acceptable and what isn't? A pretty good gauge will be to ask yourself if Rumsfeld would say it during a press conference or an event where the press is likely to be around. You should assume the press is likely to be around AR15.com. [b]This is because they [red]are.[/b][/red] You're a member of this community. You volunteered to be one.

No. We hold ourselves to a higher standard here because we STAND for something and because we ARE better than those who don't. It takes less than 5 minutes to whip out a bone-headed post. That post might sit in searchable archives not connected with (read: controlled by) AR15.com for months if not YEARS. Hell, in 5 years Hillary might be president and using the word rag in combination with any cranial reference might carry a capital sentence and subject the hardware it was carried on to seizure and forfeiture. Can't see/remember hearing Rumsfeld say something that might be "on the line" ? Probably a bad call then. |

heliflyer,
I'm old enough to know exactly who you're talking about when you refer to "Slapsy Maxie". Even recall seeing him in some movies when I was a kid.[:D] Re Tatjana's moderating suggestions, I'm totally in agreement. We can express our opposition, and even disgust, with the actions of a group of people without getting into the name calling trap. My own belief is that statement using ethnic slur type labels lose their impact. The sad thing for me is that, given the actions of far too many of their own, the term "Arab Muslim" is on its' way to becoming an ethnic insult all by itself. Not "Arab", because many Arabs are Christian or Druse, and these folks do not involve themselves in terror (they are more often the victims themselves), and not "Muslim" by itself, because there are Muslim communities all over the world that aren't involved in the kind of things we're talking about here (Turks, non Taliban Afghans, etc.). Well, y'all have a good one. I'm going to the gun show today, so I'll have fun. Happy weekend to all. |

Wow,
4 pages, 1643 reads, and only 2 comments about the actual subject of this thread. For those who go to the end first, the actual subject of the thread was Richard Reid, the shoe bomber on the American flight from Paris to Miami last Dec. He reasoned that because Jews in Israel have guns he should blow up an American airliner. He of course and thankfully failed due to his own ignorance and stupidity. |
