Gun Applications in Israel Double

I now blog at Million Dollar Web Ad. I am working for The Video Website Group part time and starting a second part time job in a few weeks. I am getting crushed by my debt and my new blog is my attempt to get out from under it all. I'm hoping to make a million dollars off my new blog! so keep in touch!

Amidst increasing violence in Israel, the number of applications are doubling as private citizens are feeling unsafe, I wonder why?! Up from 100, appeals in “People who don’t meet the criteria and are denied the permit appeal the decision citing personal safety reasons. They claim that with the rise in violence they don’t feel safe,” said Yaakov Amit, head of the Interior Ministry’s Firearms Division. “We also attribute the rise to the effect of the Dromi Law.”

From YNET:

Interior Ministry says recent surge in violence has it receiving twice as many requests for firearms permits. Number of appeals over denied requests nearly triples; those ineligible for gun license opt for tear gas, knives.

The recent increase in violence in Israel’s streets has resulted in the number of gun permit applications doubling, the Interior Ministry said Sunday.

According to the ministry’s data, some 200 to 250 appeals are now being filed every month over permit requests which were denied, compared to about 100 in previous years.

“There is a notable increase in the number of appeals filed by people whose request to carry a firearm was denied,” Yaakov Amit, head of the Interior Ministry’s Firearms Division, told Ynet.

These people value their lives, families, and property and want to protect them from the constant violence they are surrounded by. Hopefully this will deter more attacks on the people of Israel.
