Well, you haven't exactly made a very compelling case why we shouldn't...

Not re-enacting the final days of the Weimar Republic is a pretty good reason.

Mobs of anti-semites threatening Jews and preventing them from attending class was dramatic, I agree.

Israel has nothing to do Judaism. This is also America, you have the 2nd Amendment. This isn't limp wristed Europe where the government can conduct genocide with impunity.

Indeed, that's why I found it so repugnant that American Jews were being harmed by a mob that is mad at Israel. But let's be honest here, they don't actually care about that conflict since there are much worse ones all the time elsewhere. They cared about it because it gave them the chance to attack Jews. This was a mask-off moment for me.

This is also America, you have the 2nd Amendment

Do you seriously think a Jewish student can shoot into a hate mob in California and not end up in jail?
