The simple fact that most Jews support "gun control", and Bloomberg is one of the group. One would think that if there was ANY national heritage that would understand the need for the Second Amendment, it would be Jews....but apparently not. The JPFO is an exception. And, of course, any Jew living in Israel.
Unfortunately, the state of Israel is just as anti-private gun ownership as any social democracy in Europe. Gun collecting is illegal, and only retiring IDF officers are permitted to purchase their sidearm.
Any Israeli seen toting a weapon is an IDF soldier or reservist carrying their issued weapon. Includes those armed bikini girls on the Haifa beach.
You’d think that Jews, of all people, would have enshrined the right to bear arms and the right to self defense, after the horror of the Holocaust and the presence of murderous Muslims in their very midst.
I seriously doubt the Torah informs Bloomberg’s thinking. His Jewish heritage is irrelevant. I’ll grant that he’s not the Trotskyist Sanders is but he is an incredibly arrogant elitist hypocritical authoritarian.
