Montgomery County's Gun Carrying Ban Raises Concerns Among Jewish Community
Montgomery County, Maryland, has enacted a law banning the carrying of firearms within 100 yards of public assembly places, including synagogues, raising concerns among the local Jewish community. The Silver Spring Jewish Center is suing to block the law, arguing it disarms congregations amid rising antisemitism. The law allows licensed security personnel to carry firearms but prohibits synagogues from maintaining their own volunteer security teams.
