YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAs the epidemic of gun violence continues to sweep the nation, threatening our schools, public spaces, & houses of worship, many Americans sadly live in fear that they or their loved ones may fall victim to the next, inevitable mass shooting. The debate over the 2nd Amendment & gun control is fierce, with Constitutionalists & reformers locked in a stalemate over how to keep their constituents safe, while those very same constituents continue to pay the ultimate price.
One of the many groups that has seen disproportionate violence & hate levied against them recently is the Jewish community. Whether it manifests as a hostage situation, as we saw in a Texas synagogue in early 2022, or tragically, as a mass casualty event like the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh, the constant threat of violence is coming to a head. Enter Rabbi Raziel Cohen, a Hasidic Jew who has made it his life's mission to make sure that both his neighbors & his own community have the tools & knowledge to defend themselves if the worst were to happen. Despite the controversy surrounding his stance on expressing the Constitution's 2nd Amendment right at places of worship -- from both skeptical, religious Jews & gun control activists alike -- clergy & laymen from all faiths have flocked to his active shooter courses & requested his security consultation services. For better or for worse, Rabbi Cohen has made a name for himself as The Tactical Rabbi. This is his story.
