Thanks. I run around with the extremely pro-gun Jewish crowd - I even knew and did work for Aaron Zelman, who founded JPFO. He also despised, and did not want in any way to be associated with, the Schumer-Feinstein anti-gun Jews, just on account of religion. He wanted to be outrageous just to gain public attention for the message that Jews are not uniformly anti-gun.
FWIW, my family (both sides) was extremely victimized by Leftists during the last 100 or so years - first by Russian Leftists (Communists) and later by German Leftists (Nazis). Needless to say, they were far from alone among Jews in both instances. Given that my family’s experience is very far from unique among Jews, it absolutely stuns me that Jews could be Leftists...and I have yet to be able to discover what the mental malfunction is that causes it. I just know that I don’t want to be associated with them in any way...and every time I see or hear a Leftist Jew talking, my skin crawls and my blood boils.
Thanks again for your thoughts.
Friend, co-worker and eventual supervisor Manny Scheer, may he rest in peace, referred to me as a mensch, His and his wife's parents had tatoos. I share your bewilderment over jewish gun control advocacy. Of all people. Shalom.
