In 2022 America needs school cooperation—

Schools Must End Gun-Safety Censorship

Teaching American history without guns is mythology

Guns are good, save lives, preserve peace, schools must teach this

While schools are semi-closed, new curriculum can be developed

Much of our nation has become largely illiterate when it comes to gun use and safety. Total censorship on the subject of guns and their social utility, by the education establishment, has put everyone at risk. It indirectly encourages acting out criminally with firearms. Kids these days think guns simply work, no training required, dangers are unrecognized, muzzle control is... what's that? Why decent people want guns is virtually unknown in the education community. "What's the best kind of personal firearm? Educators can't answer this, yet guns are everywhere. This needs fixing," says Alan Korwin, an award-winning author and long-time consultant to JPFO.

Average school teachers know nothing about guns. They could not safely load (or unload!) one, or safely pick it up, if asked or needed. "Educators" convey this ignorance to students as fear of the subject, avoidance, horror and abstinence. That's not right. Teachers: with guns in virtually half of America's homes, you are remiss in not teaching at least gun safety to your kids, and yourself. Guns won't "go away," by magic or law. Remaining ignorant of such a crucial subject is just wrong.

So many safety programs exist, we are not going to select for you. A web search finds many, and consider this: famed "gun-control groups"—Brady, Moms, Giffords, the Michael Bloomberg armies and "Everytown"—have no programs for gun safety or education. None. They don't even offer the three basic safety rules. It's a knowledge void. We Jews and the firearm advocates in America can help you along, just take the first step—call and say, "I need to know more about this topic."

“Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, http://www.jpfo.org is America’s most aggressive civil-rights organization, dedicated to destroying the notion of 'gun control' as any kind of credible public-policy position. So-called 'gun control' does not control guns and doesn’t control criminal behavior. What it does is disarm the innocent, leaving them helpless in the face of criminals, tyrannical governments and genocide. History repeatedly proves this fact. Founded in 1989 by Aaron Zelman as a response to the Holocaust, JPFO speaks with the moral authority and tenacious commitment of survivors of persecution, and knows that surrendering your personal and family safety to government protection courts disaster. You don’t have to be Jewish to fight by our side, you just have to love liberty.”
