Jews With Guns Walking the Mean Streets of New Haven
This article from the New Haven Independent has the details about yeshiva members forming the Edgewood Park Defense Patrol. Since a previous post about Jews with guns got a warm response, this should also be interesting -- and this is Jewish self-defense right here, not in Israel. Says the article,
"We can fix all the houses up. We can plant trees. But if we cannot walk our streets securely, all our efforts are for naught," [Rabbi Daniel] Greer said. Rather than be victims or depend any longer on the police department, he said, the group is determined to tackle crime head on.
By the by, New Haven is the city that issues ID cards to illegal aliens, if that's relevant to the discussion.
Be sure to read the discussion threat for the story -- it sizzles.

They have every right to keep their neighborhood crime free !
The last time I was in New Haven I was moving out of the place. The day before there was a double shooting three houses a way. This was right near Yale as well.
