"You think you christians are hated and targeted? I wouldn't think twice about carrying to synogouge.
Trust me, the only thing better in the minds of these terrorists than killing americans is killing jewish ones."
I am Jewish, and I ALWAYS carry my .45 with me to services. You are 100% correct that killing lots of Jews is Job 1 for most of the terrorist arsewholes out there, and it is well known that on any given Saturday a bunch of us will be in a synogogue - one need not be a rocket scientist to figure this one out. Thankfully, I am not the only one, as we have several others who also carry, including an ex-Israeli special forces vet and the Rabbi (though he won't carry on Saturdays or other holidays when carrying things is considered to be "work" and thus forbidden, but note that if there is a threat to life one can break this rule). I, personally, consider that merely being a Jew in this day and age involves having your life at risk, so I don't hesitate to carry - and doing so on Saturdays and holidays is especially critical since some others won't do this, leaving us under-gunned.
We do have police outside the synogogue on many occasions, but not all, but in any case I don't like to rely on others for my protection or that of my wife and kids. Anyhow, determined terrorists that want to kill several dozen or more Jews will surely have the means of dealing with 2 police officers first. I guarantee that they won't accomplish their goal for free.
