Beverly Hills residents arming themselves after murder, violence

I ve always been anti-gun, said Debbie Mizrahie of Beverly Hills. But I am right now in the process of getting myself shooting lessons because I now understand that there may be a need for me to know how to defend myself and my family. We re living in fear.

During Black Lives Matter protests last year, Mizrahie told The Post, her neighbor s home was firebombed with Molotov cocktails.

My kids were outside and they saw a huge explosion, she said. [The neighbor s] backyard went up in smoke. Trees burned down & But it s only gotten worse. Beverly Hills has been targeted.

Mizrahie, a 40-something mother of two teenagers, isn t alone. Ever since the protests last year descended into riots and lootings, a growing number of Beverly Hills residents have been buying weapons.
