Thoughts on guns
***Begin Quote***
“Because firearms are often used in crime, it is incumbent on gun manufacturers to constantly evaluate the risks to public health and safety of the products they design,” the organization says. “The industry must stop supplying the market with guns which are attractive to criminals and which have no legitimate civilian use.”
*** end quote ***
MY RESPONSE:
Excuse me. “… which have no legitimate civilian use.”
The Dead Old White Guys wanted you to have a gun so that you could exercise the ultimate restraint on the Government thugs.
Sorry to be crass, blunt, or just down right hard. But, liberals, such as yourself, seem to forget history. You need that “V8 thunk”.
A Jew being marched to the gas chamber. Cambodia’s killing fields. Stalin’s purges of the farmers. Mao leaping forward of the bodies of those who got in the way. Rawanda, Somalia, … and on and on!
When the populace is disarmed; genocide follows.
So imagine 1930’s Germany, with the first armed Jew in his apartment being extracted by a Nazi storm trooper, he gets only the first one coming in the door. He and his family are killed, but they were dead anyway. BUT, who’s going to be the first storm trooper through the next door. If every Jewish family had a gun and used it, the Nazi’s would have rapidly run out of storm troopers.
That’s what the Dead Old White Guys were trying to give posterity. The ultimate check on government!
“legitimate civilian use” is anything you can use to kill that government thug coming to take you to the death camps.
Don’t say it can’t happen here. It has. Look at the miniaturization of police, the Waco disaster, Ruby Ridge, the Japanese Internment, and on and on.
I really hope you never have the experience of being on the wrong side of this example. I may be, but “… when they pry it from my cold dead hand!”

>the Jews did not know that Hitler had in mind their extermination
Well, I respectfully disagree.
I have spoken personally to survivors. Some who escaped the camps. Some who sent children overseas before things got impossible. Among the intellectual elite for sure and many others, they knew. But they had already been disarmed by the gun control laws. Many Jews did fight, but most were not capable having been disarmed.
It’s a lesson to us all.
Gun control laws in the US originated in South. The KKK didn’t want to face an armed equal.
We have to learn the lessons of history. Lest the same fate befall us. The gooferment is already too strong and too well armed.
Thanks for the opportunity to spout off.

Actually, the Jews did not know that Hitler had in mind their extermination when he first took them into custody, which is why more did not resist. Moreover, if you read your history, you will discover that Hitler did not go after the Jew first. He first incarcerated Communists, Socialists, and Liberals. So with that in mind, your argument should be that the Communists and Socialists should have made sure that they were well armed when the Nazis came for them. Indeed, the Communist peasants were well armed in Vietnam when American imperialists tried to impose their will on Vietnam.
