As the Nazi's stormed through Europe and put the continent under the boots of oppression and tyranny they knew they had to control the firearms of the population. Hitler once said:
"The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing."
In order to achieve this the Nazi party implemented a strict gun control policy in 1938. The laws stated that:
- Citizens had to apply for permission to buy a firearm and submit to a back ground check
- Nazis had the power to decide who got a gun and what kind of guns could be owned
- Ammunition would be controlled by the government
- Jews were not allowed to own firearms
- All Jews and other unlicensed owners must turn in their weapons to the Nazis
With previous gun control policies creating national gun registries the Nazis knew who owned guns. Often even if you turned them in to be a law abiding citizen you were arrested on sight for breaking the law!
Does any of this sound familiar?!
It is clear that the first move of the oppressor must be to force or convince gun owners to give up their guns. They come in the disguise of safety and crime prevention but mean only to have a monopoly on power!
We must learn the lessons of the past if we don't want them repeated!

The US still has some of the most liberal gun laws in the entire world. You’re full of crap.
You’re a paranoid moron. There are enough nutballs like you who would go berserk if they tried something like that that it ain’t gonna happen. Why don’t you try worrying about something more important like species extinction or obesity or something. Retard.
Anon: Our gun laws are liberal because the Constitution made them that way. Ever since the 1930′s though the Federal and state governments have instituted more strict gun control polices taking away our freedoms. The Founding Fathers knew an armed populace was essential to guaranteeing our rights. Yet the gun laws are becoming more and more restrictive. If we don’t stand up and stop the government from doing whatever it pleases our gun laws will be just like everyone else’s.
Rof: I’m sorry you feel as though you can’t intelligently express your opinions without insults or by bringing up a valid point. The media and government want you to be distracted with stuff like “species extinction” and “obesity” so you don’t stop and see that they are taking away your Constitutional rights.
Think about it for a second. You claim they can’t ever take away gun rights because “nutballs” like me will freak out. Well if they slowly but surely limit guns and ammo in this country there won’t be many “nutballs” left.
This is America and everyone has a right to their opinions. Lucky for you my opinion will keep you free.
