Mamdani: NYC Jews are arming up
American Thinker ^ | 22 Nov, 2025 | Mike McDaniel

NYC Jews are learning government won't protect them.

Throughout America, gun owners and others who recognize the importance of the Bill of Rights have celebrated Trump II. He’s the first POTUS in memory who has taken active steps to preserve the Second Amendment and American’s other rights. He’s directed the DOJ to actively uphold the Second Amendment, and while their efforts haven’t yet been perfect, they’re finally in line with the Constitution.

The day after Mamdani’s election, interest in concealed carry permits dramatically increased. Of course, NYC does everything it can to avoid obeying the Supreme Court’s Heller and Bruen decisions which made it more than clear Americans have the individual right to carry weapons in common use with them in public. New York tried, and failed, to declare the entire state a sensitive place where guns could be banned, and they continue to make getting a permit as difficult and expensive as possible.

Licenses can take between six months and a year to get in NYC, and only after completing a mandatory state concealed-carry class that includes 16 hours of classroom study and two hours of live fire training.

“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

Maybe the kapos will finally use them against their tormentors but I doubt it. They will follow orders. Kapos, after all.

Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

“Mamdani could be a great salesman.”
Obama was.

They should have learned after the Holocaust, after the multiple attacks by Hamas on Israel, and the attacks at synagogues in this country.

Well tough luck, remember you’re living in NEW YORK.

Concealed carry is prohibited, even with a license, in many “sensitive locations” such as schools, government buildings, public transportation, Times Square, houses of worship, large entertainment venues, hospitals, and public parks.

These areas are often clearly marked by official signage and are subject to active enforcement.

New York City applies additional restrictions and does not recognize permits from other states or counties in most circumstances.

Expressing interest in concealed carry won’t amount to anything unless the law is changed.

Jews in NYC are going to need all the weapons they can get for self protection. Muslims are going to attacked them as never before.
