[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its controversial because it isn't true.   Minority populations and one minority population in particular could not defend themselves against the Nazi's because of the fascist, nationalist, jingoist sentiment of the majority population in that time and place.  Whole countries with whole armies couldn't defend themselves against it and were taken over.  Armed Jews would not have solved the problem that was Nazism.  A completely ridiculous thing to have said and an entirely warped way to try to oppose gun control.  [/quote]

But one country did defend themselves, and the other countries as well, namely America.  And they brought guns. [/quote]

This seems to be an academic exercise only and I think there are more susbstantial grounds to oppose BC. Having said that though, the path to genocide is paved by this:
1) hate of a minority
2) fear of those who are different than you
3) an economic crisis or war that promotes fear and sense of massive loss of sense of security on part of most of the population
3) demogoguery that exploits 1, 2.3 above

Lastly, the steps leading to the establishment of the dealth camps that killed 6 million jews started with the publication of Mein Kamf in ( 1929 ?) , accellerated wit Hitler's election to the chancellory of Germany despite having written his plans in Mein Kamf, and then his progressive take over of one country after the next, Crystalnacht happened as well and the armed population of America, sat there and watched and DID NOTHING . We did nothing in 1939, nothing in 1940 even though it was well known.

We entered the death camps in 1944 as the Germans retreated so having the guns didn't change a thing

We lacked moral courgae then and we lack it now .

The proof : we wont stand up to the gun lobby and ban these weapons[/quote]

Why would we arm people who scream death to America and who attacked us multiple times on our own land?[/quote]

If you want to keep on touting the 2nd Amendment as a universal right then you have no choice but to allow American Muslims to keep and bear arms too.  [/quote]

Citizens, yes. Agreed.[/quote]
