Shooting At Synagogue in San Diego, Very Early Breaking Reports

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Sounds like a minor incident, in terms of casualty count. 4 injuries, no fatalities.

Forgive me if my words sounded as if I was trivializing this incident - that was not my intention. I apologize for my insensitivity.

No, Jews are not above judgment. Judaism is a religion of morality, and it allows Jews to condemn evil behavior by a Jew. If I have a criticism of Lansky, Madoff, or Netanyahu, then it is for failing to meet the high ethical standards of Judaism. But don't ask me to defend John Dillinger or the Barrow-Parker gang, either -- let alone the worst gangsters of all time. The Sicilian Mafia and the Russian Mafiya can't match the evil of the worst criminal syndicate of all time, the German Nazi Party.    

Don't do this. It's well-intended, but a double standard too. Judge them not on the basis of the standards of (your idea of) Judaism, but on the basis of the standards that you would use for everyone.

Ummm do you know DavidB?

No group has done more harm in the last thousand years to Jews than White Christians. Even the current Christian support of Israel is warped. Read up on why exactly many Christians in America want Israel to "succeed" and you'd be shocked. It's all part of a warped end of days, second coming, apocalyptic fantasy. Many American Christians don't care about Israel or Jewish people at all.

So can we please stop reacting to constant attacks and instead start conducting defensive offense operations against these monsters.

What are you gonna do about it Mr. Tough Guy? You gonna hunt some ‘Not-sees because of that Tarantino movie?

I don't know why you would roll your eyes at that. He specifically said "last thousand years," and I know you have a basic grasp of European history.

It's the attack on Evangelicals that bothers me. That is a really frustratingly tired stereotype that is more often than not employed as a cudgel.

 I never said Evangelicals, but you know the truth deep down, so you jumped the gun. And the reason I didn't say Evangelical is because there is awful anti-antisemitism in Roman Catholicism, Orthodox Catholicism, Protestantism(just read the filth Martin Luther the founder of Protestantism wrote about Jewish people) and yes "born again" Evangelicalism too. Robert Jeffress the man Trump selected to speak at the National Prayer Breakfast said "you can't be saved being a Jew". Just imagine if somebody on the left said this.

Umm....what is so controversial about that? You can't be saved if you don't accept Christ as Lord and Messiah. You can't be saved if you're Jewish. Or Muslim. Or agnostic. Or flying spaghetti monster.

That's like, you know, the core tenant of Christianity?
