Synagogues with Designated Shooter Programs?
As the Jewish High Holy Days approach, there have been some stories about synagogues proactively training with guns for defensive purposes.
Perhaps the most outspoken has been Rabbi Gary Moscowitz. Here is a link to the story at the NY Post, “Go ahead, make my high holiday” .
The story’s focus on extremist Muslims is justified, there is a genuine threat there (here is a current example and the impetus for Moscowitz), but, do any of us really believe this is limited solely to Jewish synagogues or to Muslim attackers?
