“Laziness and cowardice are the reasons so great a portion of mankind remains under lifelong tutelage, and why it is so easy for others to set themselves up as their ‘guardians’ It is so easy remain a child” ~ Immanuel Kant.
Last week at a bus stop in Jerusalem, without warning, two Palestinian terrorists shot into a crowd of innocent commuters, murdering at least six and wounding at least twice that number.
Precipitous terrorist incidents like this in Israel are hardly unusual, much less unprecedented, but a curious aspect to this event is that an Israeli soldier (unclear if he was in uniform or not), with the aid of at least one armed Israeli citizen (non-police, non-military), who happened to be at the scene, immediately and effectively returned fire, instantly killing both terrorists on the spot! [DRT]
Had that soldier and his armed-citizen confederates not been armed, alert, and had not reacted so unhesitatingly and with such precision, the death toll of innocents would have surely been much higher.
Over here, of course, members of our “unarmed forces” could never have been such heroes, since DOD (even under the DJT Administration) is still so afraid of guns that its members are never armed, even when on-base and on-watch, even in fact when operating in areas of active hostility, much less when off-watch in the domestic domain.
A few American citizens do routinely go armed. Still, Democrat mayors and governors have arbitrarily manufactured so many “no guns allowed zones” (like bus stops), that legally going armed is nearly impossible for most citizens. That is, of course, their cynical intent!
So, when a similar terrorist attack occurs over here, there will likely be no such capable rescuers around. When there are soldiers present, they’ll be unarmed and thus pathetically gunned down along with the rest of the unarmed victims. In fact, there is a better-than-even chance that even off-watch police officers at the scene will also be unarmed, by choice!
With our world so unstable right now, it is indeed amazing that many Americans are still naive, unaware, unalert, and so utterly defenseless.

There are 3 kinds of people in the world. Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs. The Wolves, a relatively small group, prey on the Sheep, a relatively large group. The Sheepdogs, a very small group, protect the sheep from the Wolves. Decide which group you want to be in.

The PLO can only kill when their targets trust them. And allows them close into their midst.
The conversation under BolsheviksLoveCensorship departs from the topic of how we, in the United States, are not ready to defend ourselves in every day situations. We are here, and they are there. We need to do the right things over here or suffer consequences. I am going to carry and respond to situations here when needed.

“When Peace comes we will perhaps in time forgive the Arabs for killing our Sons,
But it will be harder for us to forgive them for having forced us to kill their Sons.
Peace will come when the Arabs love their children more than they hate us.”

Small story compared to the countless children that IDF snipers shoot in the head. Then there’s the story that somehow CNN actually ran about the israeli bulldozer operator who admitted to dozing people still alive. Anyway thanks for the reminder about how evil israel is.
