Even The Times of Israel is reporting how Jewish gun owners, firearms instructors and security professionals in the Big Apple are witnessing a major surge in demand for firearms training, and applications for concealed carry permits. Anti-Semitic rhetoric has led to increased violence against Jews across the United States.
The alarm is sounding, and Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO) is paying attention. JPFO says it is hardly surprising that, when faced with the kind of social threat facing them, New York City’s Jewish residents are falling back on the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment as a preventive measure.
A separate New York Post report revealed the Democratic Socialists of America agenda they want Mamdani to follow, and it is pure anti-Israel, and thus New York Jews feel threatened. The Times of Israel noted how more than 1,000 rabbis and cantors from across the U.S. signed a letter opposing Mamdani and “the political normalization of anti-Zionism.” The same report revealed how New York Police licensing data shows a 14-percent increase in carry permit applications after Mamdani won the Democratic primary.
