U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)- The Jews For The Preservation of Firearms Ownership organization just released the following opinion piece outlining the dangers of recent political power-moves by anti-gun politicians and their ilk. While a bit over-the-top, it definitely outlines some great points, and showcases many of the reasons Americans should remain vigilant defending their rights. Check it out below.
Officials lack legitimate powers; Why isn’t public already armed?
Where is any delegated authority to deny people their gun rights?
HINT: There isn’t any. Officials are committing crimes by discriminating.
NJ has already capitulated–they know how wrong they are, and subject to repercussionsWhile gun-rights groups like the NRA and the Second Amendment Foundation properly attacked New Jersey and other “officials” for illegally and unconstitutionally demanding the closure of free gun and ammunition stores, the big picture is missing:
• The public should already be fully armed and trained for catastrophes
• People should have sufficient ammo and enough gun knowledge before disaster strikes
The very notion that “officials” claim the power to close free-market stores, especially constitutionally protected ones in times of great need, is abhorrent to our system of governance and economics. Officials who issue such edicts deserve to be brought up on charges. They cause harm and have usurped powers they have not been delegated, like British tyrants we rebelled against centuries ago. Their motto seems to be, “We’re back.”
JPFO stands guard against such abuse and the sleep the public has fallen into, even from our own supposed rights supporters. Yes, it’s a good thing groups like SAF are suing NJ and CA in their government-run courts. But it should not be necessary. And if those state run-and-paid-for courts side with their bureaucrats, what’s your next step? Meekly comply? Write off your fundamental rights? JPFO says: Never Again! Now that police are falling to this plague, heed our words. Join with JPFO now, for all the right reasons, and fight the good fight.
Anti-gun-rights groups have also filed briefs, which JPFO will summarize in a bulletin in the near future. Concerned that the U.S. Supreme Court will overturn New York’s draconian ban on gun rights, so-called “gun-control” groups have actually pressed city police to loosen their restrictions, to make the case moot, and keep it out of the High Court. One Pulse For America, headed by former Star Trek actor George Takei is among those seeking to scuttle the case by asking police to eliminate the need to get a carry permit to take a household firearm out of the city, a ploy that failed.

Jim, JPFO isn’t being “over the top”; they’re being brutally honest. Americans have become so accustomed to weasel words and ‘measured responses’ coming from the NRA sewer, it’s almost as if everyone’s balls dropped off. Kudos to JPFO for nailing it!! Every state needs an ACTIVE civil defense corps. In old times it was called THE MILITIA. Stop wringing your hands over commietards’ bashing the word “militia”; embrace it, be proud of it, make it synonymous with A FORCE FOR GOOD. If more citizens would be prepared for emergencies of all kinds, train with others for those emergencies, and turn… Read more »
you said: “While a bit over-the-top” Not at all over the top. This is spot on. The very INTENT of that pesky Second Article of Ammendment is that the common people, armd, skilled, trained, capable, coordinated, would be THE bulwark of “the security of a free state”. Don’t forget.. the Jewish people have come through some times very similar to our war to kick out the tyrants about 225 years ago. In the AAR (after action report) once LaFayette loaded his troops up and shoved off for Merrie Auld England for the (almost) last time, the Patrios understood what it… Read more »
How do you spell “D-U-M-B”? [IMHO] try the DEMOCRAT members of the NJ Legislature who AGGRESSIVELY sponsor and support “gun control” and are of the Jewish faith. And in case you’re thinking about bringing up the Nazi experience, DON’T; it REALLY pisses their DUMB asses off.
Lot of us Jews who are vocally on the front lines of the 2A battle and even more of us who are silently arming up and training our friends and family. Despite what the press would have you believe, its a rather significant error to assume that Jews can be unanimous… about anything.
JPFO is one of the better civil rights organizations. Been meaning to join, even though I’m not Jewish. Given history, I am amazed that any Jews agree with gun control, yet it seems many do. This organization is a great counter example, and works to reach out to and educate that community. I believe many Jews support gun control because they don’t see it as applying to them – because they don’t understand that the second applies to them. OTOH – When Trump joked about remaining in office forever, I halfway expected leftists to change their stance on the second… Read more »
