They’re preparing for a Mamdani administration lox, stock and barrel.
Jewish New Yorkers are arming themselves before an anti-Israel “mayor who despises us” takes the helm of New York City, several told The Post this week.
They want to “have a say in our protection and not have to rely on others,” one said.
The morning after mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s victory, firearms instructors and gun shop owners were flooded with urgent pleas. “It’s getting busy because of him,” said longtime gun safety instructor Lance Dashefsky. …
“I always ask people in class why they want a gun,” said Dashefsky. “And now the answer is Mamdani.”
Brooklyn firearms instructor Ross Den said anyone who was ever on the fence about getting a concealed carry weapon, is no longer.
That kosher cohort includes Jewish doctors, lawyers, plumbers and even rabbis, he continued.
“There are plenty of rabbis who carry – shul is where the greatest threat is,” said Den, adding “People are beginning to wake up and are now realizing they have to defend themselves and not rely on the cavalry to come save them.”

I thought carry was basically impossible in NYC.
I did too. I wonder what the process is.
Brooklyn is not NYC
NYC is Manhattan
Media does not know geography

Ok “greater nyc” made carry near impossible.
The whole area.
Well they didn’t allow guns in Warsaw in 1943.
I thought Brooklyn was one of the five buroughs that together make up NYC. Do they have completely separate local governments?

...Michael Bergida, 30, recently opened Samson Armory, a gun shop in Marine Park, Brooklyn - the first new gun store in the borough in more than 50 years. The Orthodox Jewish owner said business has surged since Mamdani’s election victory, with everyone from elderly community members to Rabbis seeking firearms and training.
“We’re probably the only gun store to have a minyan,” Bergida told the New York Post, referring to the prayer quorum required in Judaism. He said many of his customers express anxiety over the incoming administration, predicting “chaos” and claiming the NYPD is understaffed. “People are freaking out over Mamdani - anyone who has Judeo-Christian values,” he said, adding that he primarily serves Jewish clients...
you learn something new every day. I’ve always thought all 5 Burroughs were part of NYC.
It is. The only local government role that is Borough specific is Borough president which is a fairly weak role https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_of_New_York_City#Borough_presidents

maybe these new firearm owners will become new 2nd Amendment rights voters ...

Good but Mo’s meditating murderers have no uniforms, lie and will kill you and yours by any means necessary. If they die for the cause they are martyrs. They have billions of allies and billions of dollars to implement their purpose. Keep your head on a swivel. That’s no way to live. Especially in America.
JPFO is a Good starting point,
But these Folks are Way behind
The Curve. This Mamdani is Mayor and
All hell breaks loose,I Don’t get it.
.
Get some Range Time NooBs.
Not the Orthodox.
Using a firearm for self-defense in NYC? Guess who gets prosecuted. Somebody is in for a very rude awakening.
I understand financial difficulty or physical impairment, but anyone else who was an adult in 2020, especially those who live in American cities, has no excuse.
