Nu? Did you buy the Beretta? I’ve been a responsible gun owner for forty years, well trained, and an accurate shot. Here in South Florida, I know many Jews who are gun owners and take their responsibility to protect the Kahal seriously. Anti-Semites will be cautious around you, knowing that you will not take any threats lightly. Be sure to frequent a gun range where you can get instruction and become comfortable with your weapon. Do not be afraid. Only a Jew with a gun will protect a Jew without one. Kol Yisrael arevim zeh ka zeh.

This resonated with me and I am not Jewish: "How can so many people justify the actions of Hamas? What is everyone seeing that I can’t see? What the hell is wrong with me?"

I still can't believe the pro Hamas reaction either. I'm very "white" - blond and blue eyed - and I've lived in many parts of the US and no one ever said anything anti-Semitic around me. I'm sure it existed in some places, but in my many different circles of friends and colleagues there was no anti Semitism I knew of. I know it was real in the US in the past, Gentleman's Agreement and such, but that felt as distant as segregation. I'm shocked and devastated to witness this shameful new episode of hate among America's indoctrinated youth. My heart is with Israel and the Jewish people, and I pray every day for the safe return of the hostages and God's comfort to the families of the victims. You are not alone.
