A Rural Jewish View of Home Protection




By Jeffery Spiegelman, 31st March 2013

How long does it take for the police to get to your door? It is a
fair question. When I ask some of my friends who live in urban
areas or suburbia, I often get a response like, "Well, I live a
little further away from a station, so it takes as long as 10
minutes." Hmmm, not bad.

How about the rest of us? There are a great many who do not live
in areas that have municipal police protection. How long does it
take for the state or county police to respond to an emergency in
areas like that? Areas that have increasingly become the target of
home invasions because of this lack of police patrol? Areas that
often have to pay the same amount of state and county taxes for
fewer benefits from the state and county? I live in an area like
that. I would be happy if the state police, who do an outstanding
job with limited resources, could make it in 20 minutes. In
reality it usually means a little longer.

It takes an intruder 6-10 seconds to kick in my door and make it to
my bedroom. That is a gap of around 19:54 minutes of potential
life-altering, or ending, horror. Try it on your house. Stand
outside and time how long it would take to break a window, unlock a
door, and run to your master bedroom. Then stand there for the
rest of the 20 minutes it would take for the police to arrive,
assuming whoever was inside had the time to call 9-1-1. This is
one of the many reasons I fight to defend the rights of firearms
owners.

The 2nd Amendment of the United States says that a person has the
right to arm themselves against the predations of a tyrannical
government. My home state of Delaware takes that one step further
by saying, "A person has the right to keep and bear arms for the
defense of self, family, home and State, and for hunting and
recreational use." Art. I, § 20 (enacted 1987). Police carry
semi-automatic firearms with large capacity magazines because they
may need to defend themselves from multiple attackers. Home owners
in my state, especially in rural areas, are often finding
themselves in the same situation. For a little extra firepower in
case they are dealing with a more serious threat, the police turn
to tactical rifles or shotguns. Home owners in my state,
especially in rural areas, often are increasingly faced with a very
similar threat.

As a Jewish man who lives in a rural area, I am often at odds with
my urban and suburban Jewish friends and family who often see their
world as representative of the country as a whole. They often
believe that the gun restrictions that have been placed on some of
America's biggest (and, ironically, most dangerous) cities must be
applied universally. These places have police and fire protection
that is, in comparison, nearly instantaneous. These friends and
family often say that I am pro-gun because I simply cannot
understand their "plight" when it comes to firearms in the
inner-cities. I think it is the opposite. I think they cannot see
the need for my rights in my rural home.

"… their real goal isn't disarming the criminals but disarming
everyone they view as potential political opposition
[http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=FRSjS&m=JrylNx6dhVZn_P&b=tWOQsUFoT3fqKt0bZ5UiFQ].
Some segments of gun control are aimed at producing a local
electoral majority, the prime example being the Colorado bills that
would cause enough pro-gun people to move out of the state to
ensure a long-term Democrat majority. Others are aimed at disarming
the "most probably enemy" population groups, and both political
parties are guilty of that to some extent, though the Democratic
party does it far more."
