...an M240 on the roof would be a great deterrent.

So would a triple ring of claymore mines. Unfortunately we're not allowed to used the best defensive equipment, just barely adequate.

No it's not. Chicago politicians are as a group very much against mere citizens being able to obtain, keep and bear the means of self defense. This most specifically includes the one about to move to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, DC....Racist thugs prefer unarmed victims.

While I'd agree with you about gun rights, I don't think it's an issue here. Middle of the night vandalism would be deterred by the simple presence of a watchman. And these attacks happen in Florida, a long time concealed carry state. And I've no doubt vandalism occurs in Texas. A better deterrent would be serious criminal charges, which won't happen in Chicago. If you recall our Pres to be opposed felony charges for a youth committing his SECOND violent felony, having gotten a pass on the first youthful indescretion.

Relative to arms, a better example would be the violent attacks, which I fear will escalate. Compare the attack on the community center in Seattle, 1 dead Jew, four wounded, a sane Muslim perp who admits it was a crime directed at Jews, and a jury that refused to convict. On anything. To the LA El Al attack. 1 (2?-I think 2nd survived) dead passenger, 1 dead perp. A much better outcome, because armed security was on the scene. And a competent, armed civilian would have sufficed.

Chicago Jews caused this so please exclude me from feeling sorry for them....Vote Democrat, and this is what you get.

You don't have to, and you're not alone, you and others who share your fascist mindset earn my utter contempt.

Why assume that muslims did this? Vandalizing synagogues has been a favorite passtime for some Americans for decades, long before there were any muslims here.

While he would no doubt be in favor of felony charges for an ordinary law-abiding citizen who shot one of these feral youths in self defense. Agree?

So what should we do as a response to these low lifes?

Every Jew, everywhere, should lawfully purchase a firearm, obtain a concealed-carry license, and learn how to use it, and where it's not legal, they should stop opposing decriminalization of armed self-defense.

Feeling a little confident now a Chicago Politician will step in the Oval Office, eh?

I think that's irrelevant.

Well I think it's spot-on. This is just the beginning.

Where is all the anti-Muslim vandalism? What, no bricks thrown through the local Islamic Center saying “Death to Palestine, Free Israel”?

Not that I advocate violence, I just keep hearing that the Jews and Americans are no better than the terrorists.

"fascist mindset earn my utter contempt"

Thank you.  I will gladly accept the label from someone who obviously rejects what Israel stands for.  I only hope Likud, and Bibi Netanyaho wins the upcoming election and will protect Israel instead of giving away land.  Land for peace has not worked but I presume you believe it still might.

It's ironic, American Christians stand with Israel all she stands for, while American Jews do not.

Again, I'll acknowledge your pleasure at the vandalism and firebombing of Synagogues here in Chicago.

As to your characterization of me as just another Jew who rejects Israel, you're not the first idiot I've conversed with on FR. If you're going to make charges like that you have to grow a set and back them up. Factually, not with some one liner like a vandal streaking by in the night.

This isn't about Obama, it's about the acceptance of anti-religious violence as an advocacy device, no different than the gay attacks on Catholics and Mormons. While I perceive it to be more acceptable on the left, it's not a political issue and should be opposed across the board.

Yes, it is all part of the Obamanite attack on non TROP religions. For a few decades, the popular culture has insideously created this situation.

He certainly come from this enviornment, he attended a racist Church for years, and is comfortable associating with racists, Jewhaters and terrorists, it's reasonable to assume he'd oppose, however these Synagogue attacks aren't attributable to Obama, and would have happened had McCain won, or had Obama still been a nondescript State Senator. At this point he's irrelevant to what are criminal, possibly terrorist related, crimes. If he calls the investigation off next week, the Feds are involved, then there's a basis for criticism, but I doubt that will happen. And I know you wouldn't do it, but ignoring or condoning incidents like this as has been done on several threads because Jews voted for Obama doesn't make any friends for the GOP.

Most of the Jews voting for Obama have a type of Stockholm Syndrome, particularly in large urban centers..

Which is completely irrelevant relative to criminal activity and law enforcement. The attempted fire bombing of a Reform Synagogue, probably majority Obama voters, in Chicago New Years weekend is a crime, as are the attacks on the four Orthodox Synagogues/Schools, probably McCain voters, the article is discussing. Same with the disruption of the New York wedding, I haven't a clue if the family and guests were Orthodox, probably McCain, or Reform, probably Obama voters, nor does it matter.

Politicians in general operate under CYA and some flinch at having law enforcement going after those criminal acts mentioned, because it will cost them politically. Look at the anti Catholic actions in SF, Anti LDS actions in LA and elsewhere. In more than a few venues the police were less than ardent in acting. It starts with the politicians refusing to do what is right..
