Remember when Progressive Moonbats said that we need sensible gun control just like Hitlers?

I don't understand how they can call Trump Hitler, then turn around and literally push for Nazi policies using Nazi tactics comparable to the "Red Guard" and "Hitler Youth". Like nobody was gonna notice?
Yes it ruins the narrative when facts are brought into play...

Godwined and it's too early to drink!
You know that's completely inaccurate right? Jews were restricted before the Nazis came on the scene to start with, and the Nazis actually loosened restrictions after they came to power, making the law apply only to handguns. Then there's the fact that arming Germany's several thousand Jews (less than 1% of the population) really would have been like farting in a hurricane as far as preventing the Holocaust. There is, BTW, no evidence or historical record of the Kristallnacht rampage that says they didn't shoot back.This article appeared today and that is why I am posting it in current events, especially with the open push by anti gunners to attack the 2nd Amendment, semi automatic pistols, rifles and shotguns as well as the back door bans using 10 bullet magazine limits to ban most semi automatic pistols...
This is how the nazis came for guns...using gun registration...and the ability to intimidate and silence their victims was the goal.....
When the Nazis Came for the Guns
By the time the Nazi Party launched a concerted nationwide attack upon the Jews, there was nothing the Jews could do. The time for defending themselves had long since passed.
Helga's father certainly couldn't fight back. A year before, they had come for his guns. Since he had been a German officer in the Kaiser's army in the Great War, the Nazis assumed, erroneously, it turned out, that he had at least kept his sidearm. They relented on his traditional officer's sword, reasoning that it was no match for bullets anyway.
The Nazis had in their possession a national registry of gun-owners. When they came to power in 1933, they knew exactly who had what kind of gun and how many. And they didn't even have to compile the registry themselves. A few years earlier, the Interior Minister of the German Weimar government had started the gun ownership registry as a way of keeping tabs on extremist groups in Germany, such as the communists...and the Nazis. The national registry was thorough, precise, and extensive. But not public. The Weimar interior minister was wary of it falling into the wrong hands, like those of the Nazi extremists he warned of.
Shortly afterward, with the Nazis finally coming to power, he and his staff either neglected to destroy the list or ran out of time. So in one of their first acts after Hitler was elected to govern Germany – yes, he really was elected by the German people – the Nazis quickly went about confiscating the guns through the German gun-owner registry.
The gun confiscation was highly selective. The Nazis allowed their loyal minions to keep their guns and even encouraged them to get more. Those Germans deemed suspect, or declared enemies of the state, had their guns confiscated. After the Nazis disarmed the rival communists, they targeted the Jews. Within a year they had visited the homes and shops of every Jewish gun owner in Germany and taken away their guns.
The Nazis were nervous about any of their real or imagined domestic enemies shooting back at them. They were especially nervous about the Jews, paranoid to the point where even after they confiscated the guns of all the registered Jewish gun-owners, they still went after the Jewish war veterans. This is why they ended up at Helga's home in Wesel in 1937.
Thus, when the Kristallnacht rampage happened a year later, the Jews didn't shoot a single bullet in self-defense because they didn't have any guns to shoot with. The Nazis had made sure of it.
Of the 30,000 defenseless Jewish men rounded up that night, only a few survived to the end of the war. How many would have lived had they been armed when the Nazis came for them? We can never know. Yet we can a least surmise that it would have been more than a few, probably many more.
Why not the vinegar is cheap?Yes it ruins the narrative when facts are brought into play...
The facts as you've presented them:

So, every time gun registration has been implemented, it has led to wholesale confiscation of guns?
Notice the "every time" there.....
Simple yes or no will do.
The law was not enacted until 1938..This article appeared today and that is why I am posting it in current events, especially with the open push by anti gunners to attack the 2nd Amendment, semi automatic pistols, rifles and shotguns as well as the back door bans using 10 bullet magazine limits to ban most semi automatic pistols...

thanks for the article and is it off topic to mention that in Venezuela currently that Maduro has made it illegal for starving Venezuelans to buy guns and ammunition according to what i have heard and read without really paying attention to details . And Maduro has made sure that he has armed his Militia . Not trying to change topics so just asking what i think is a related question 2AGuy ,
The guns were confiscated due to the terms of the treaty of Versailles..Afterwards they abandoned the ban and went for strike gun licensing in 1928..The law was not enacted until 1938..This article appeared today and that is why I am posting it in current events, especially with the open push by anti gunners to attack the 2nd Amendment, semi automatic pistols, rifles and shotguns as well as the back door bans using 10 bullet magazine limits to ban most semi automatic pistols...

Gun registration happened in the 1920s....when everyone followed the same argument anti gunners are making today....and then, when the nazis had the power, they used the lists to disarm Jews and political enemies..
