"She is Jewish..."


This is maybe unrelated, but I have always wondered why Jews, especially those "raised in the most Jewish community in the US" could ever POSSIBLY be liberal? And how they could be against gun ownership? If I or some of my relatives had gone through what the Jews went through, I'd be THE most conservative, gun defending Jewess that ever lived!

Maybe I just don't understand...

Because everything crammed into our lame little brains, both Jews and Christians in liberal schools, was built on the assumption that liberals were anti-fascist and therefore pro-Jewish and that conservatives were secret NAZIs (notice guys, no apostrophe?). I grew up. She didn't.

I love her dearly, as a fond part of my childhood, and wish her no harm. In fact I want to help her. I don't want to defeat her. I want to SAVE her. Folks here are a big part of that noble quest.

Thank you all.
