“Nearly everyone I know here in FL has a gun”

You need to upgrade your circle of friends. Most everyone I know has at least six.

I have been to a few gun shows and there is one thing I noticed in the picture in the article. Most of the shoppers are looking at the weapons with their hands firmly held behind them. I know that when I was looking closely at the weapons I did the same. Didn’t want anyone thinking I was going for their guns.

If I wanted to handle the weapon, I asked first, and only touched after they gave a positive reply. Momma didn’t raise any idiots.

“I’ve known otherwise flaming liberals who were more pro-gun than some of the so-called “golfers with guns” I’ve run into.”

ditto here in colorado ... it’s a strange phenomenon ...

This is interesting, as the Broward County only voted 34% for Trump.

I think roughly 8-10% of Broward is Jewish

When I lived in miami 1980s North Miami Beach and Miami Beach and south Miami and Kendall were heavily Jewish

Jewish attitude in south Florida is likely like Jewish attitudes towards guns in any urban area where they congregate

Only 10% own guns ....that may have crept up a hair to maybe 15%

It would appear only one in four share our views on guns at most

They are overwhelmingly an urban people and the Talmud has a lot of anti hunting writings per what I’ve read in Jewish publications

Progressive ideology is obviously pro gun control

It’s a perfect storm of many factors

I have a Jewish man of 60 years age in my extended family realm from Boca one county north of Broward and he is virulently pro gun confiscation

He lives in fear of Christian conservatives with guns cranking up the cattle cars any day

Especially southerners ..

It’s ridiculous but ingrained....he’s a third generation Russian secular Jew from Forest Hills originally

There is not one group on earth today that should be more in favor of gun rights than Jews but they just don’t as a majority get it

Israelis do but even they don’t grant personal gun rights like we do which is again very hard to grasp why

What if the hagannah and ergun had been unarmed?

It’s a dead horse

If i had a dollar for every time I’ve argued this topic with a liberal Jewish friend and failed to change their mind Jim’s freepathonn would jump ten points

I grew up with Deep South Jews and they are just like we are

Own guns and hunt and love trump

It’s a regional culture thing too

Goldmans, Schwartz, shornick, shulmeister, Zimmerman, Jewish but act like any other white southerner politically and culturally

Northern Jewish Freepers don’t understand it really
