You are way off base on that one. There are over 5 million Jews in Israel, slightly more than the Jewish population of the entire United States. The Jewish population of Brooklyn would be a few hundred thousand at most, and, other than the Hasidic enclaves, has been decreasing rapidly since WWII.
They have no problem getting all the protection they need from Mayor Bloomberg who is as Jewish as was the former NY gov.
The fact that Bloomberg is Jewish is not very relevant to Jews in Brooklyn (or anyone anywhere in the US) protecting themselves against criminal elements surrounding them. Ownership of personal firearms has been statistically proven to be a deterrent against violent crime just about everywhere it has been tried. Police can't be everywhere, regardless of whom the mayor or governor happens to be. Of course, when local officials pander to criminal elements for political purposes, the necessity for personal firearms is even more acute.
“There are more Jews in Brooklyn than in Israel.”
Read my posts - it was a figure of speech to underline the fact that we dont need the JDL coming to NY state to train paramilitary units to protect only Jews.
Quite frankly, I am disgusted at the unAmerican stench wafting through these posts ... lets Balkanize the entire country set up with 100 paramilitary units run by 100 entities protecting only their own!?!!?!!
No very Free and not very Republic like.
PS- Send the IDF to set up paramilitary units IN IRAN to help our soldiers at the battle lines...
not back here where they ARE NOT NEEDED.
