Jews in New York City are understandably reacting to Anti-Israel Zohran Mamdani’s victory.
.
. . . Jewish New Yorkers are arming themselves before an anti-Israel “mayor who despises us” takes the helm of New York City, several told The Post this week.
.
Michael Bergida, who opened a gun shop in Marine Park, Brooklyn, called Samson Armory — a nod to the Biblical Israelite warrior and symbol of sheer strength — said his new business is booming. . . .
.
“The NYPD is all retiring – we have to fight for ourselves. People are freaking out over Mamdani – anyone who has any Christian-Judeo values,” Bergida claimed, adding that he largely works with the Jewish community, who are tougher than bubbe’s brisket.
.
“We have to let everyone know — don’t f–k with the Jews,” Bergida said, claiming that the majority of those with licenses in New York are Members of the Tribe. “Never again.”
.
As an NRA-certified firearms instructor and trainer, this mensch on a mission’s aim is to work with synagogues, “to have active shooter situations and be prepared.
.
“It’s like doomsday prepping – people are loading up ammo,” said Bergida. “I have a passion to prep Jews.” . . .
.
“It’s getting busy because of him,” said longtime gun safety instructor Lance Dashefsky, referring to Mamdani.
.
Conceal carry permit requests rose 14% from 620 in June, when Zo won the Dem primary, to 706 in August, according to the latest NYPD data.
.
Licenses can take between six months and a year to get in NYC, and only after completing a mandatory state concealed-carry class that includes 16 hours of classroom study and two hours of live fire training. . . .
.
“There are plenty of rabbis who carry – shul is where the greatest threat is,” said Den, adding, “People are beginning to wake up and are now realizing they have to defend themselves and not rely on the cavalry to
come save them.” . . ..
