Following the massacre at synagogue in Pittsburgh last week, there have been reports of many Jews expressing interest in getting weapons training and licenses to protect against another tragedy.
Now, a gun store in Colorado is offering synagogues way to defend themselves, for free.
KOAA reports Mel Bernstein, owner of Dragon Arms just outside Colorado Spring, is offering to give rabbis a free AR-15 or a handgun. He’ll also include training and ammunition.
Bernstein made the comparison of an active shooting to a fire. He said if a fire broke out, you’d reach for a fire extinguisher to keep people safe, and by his reasoning, you should be able to reach for a weapon during an active shooting.
