How to Respond to the Sutherland Springs Massacre

November 6, 2017 by Robert J. Avrech 7 Comments

So far, the dead in the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs massacre number 26, with 20 wounded.

This atrocity will, no doubt, devolve into a debate about gun control. Democrats will label the NRA evil, and the Republicans who support the Second Amendment as a bunch of knuckle draggers. Never mind that it seems it was good man with a gun who put a halt to the killing spree.

Gun debate aside, let me propose a few simple measures that the media should adopt in the wake of a mass killing.

Jews With and Without Guns

October 25, 2017 by Robert J. Avrech Leave a Comment

When Karen and I were in Israel we were comforted by the presence everywhere of Jews with guns. Karen’s brother David, an accomplished lawyer, Rabbi and businessman, carries his Glock nearly everywhere.

David is a good man. Thus, he is a good man with a gun.

The reason he carries a gun—and is licensed to do so in the Jewish state—is because there are millions of bad men and women, IslamoNazis, who seek to kill every Jew in Israel, every Jew on the face of the earth.

The only defense against a bad man with a weapon—any weapon—is a good man with a weapon.

Gun Rights Are Women’s Rights

Evil on the Vegas Strip

And so here we are. Again.

The Las Vegas massacre is not, as the media habitually labels such incidents, a tragedy.

This is an atrocity.

Jew Without a Gun: 25 Years Ago, the LA Riots

April 27, 2017 by Robert J. Avrech 2 Comments

This coming Saturday marks the 25the anniversary of the Los Angeles Riots.

Thus, I am republishing my three-part series about the riots of 1992 in which Karen and I and the children were trapped for several frightening hours. We were unarmed, helpless save for our wits. The police were conspicuously absent and the bad guys—frequently armed with heavy weapons—owned the streets.

It was a defining moment in my life.

I’m reposting this series as a cautionary tale because when IslamoNazis go on murderous rampages the left invariably blames the actions of evil men on hunks of steel, piously calling for ever more gun laws. The ultimate aim, of course, is to disarm law-abiding American citizens through mass gun confiscations.

If the Democrat party’s vision is fulfilled all of America will become defenseless, as were we, a quarter century ago.
