Armed and Dangerous in New

Armed and Dangerous in New York - Citing the inability of the NYPD to protect Jewish institutions from the terrorist attacks the FBI says are possible, a Jewish defense group in Brooklyn has vowed to mount armed patrols in the streets of New York.

Citing their Second Amendment right to self-defense, a NYC rabbi has vowed to put 50 armed men on on the street against the threat that terrorists might use fuel tanker trucks for attacks on synagogues and Jewish schools.

Of course, many New Yorkers are idiots: "We don't need vigilantes like him coming into our neighborhoods," said one very complacent New Yorker.

And - this is almost funny - as I listened to NPR's take on this story, I thought "They're going to mention that this rabbi once supported Meir Kahane". And, within seconds, they did. As if that alters someone's right to defend oneself.

Yet another sign - either of the apocalypse or that the US is swinging to the right: New York Jews touting the Second Amendment.
