he rest of the world has murdered hundreds of millions of people...in modern times......not the dark ages.......
More people were murdered in the six years between 1939-1945....12 million innocent men, women and children, than 82 years of criminals murdering criminals with guns in the United states...about 812,000.
Japan murdered 3 million innocent men, women and children, China 70 million, Russia 25 million..
Gunny you list all these things, and never mention the Genocide of Native Americans in the United States or slavery.
Okay, news flash. Human being treat eachother pretty shabbily, and when governments pander to the worst in us, there's not much you can do about it.
Idiots with guns are not going to prevent government from acting badly... Germans owned lots of guns before WWII. Not a one of them rushed out and stopped the Nazis from carting off their Jewish neighbors. It was more like, "Can I have his stuff?"
Having guns in this country didn't stop the government from carting off hundreds of thousands of Japanese Americans, either. (Yes, yes, you'll point out that FDR ordered that, while ignoring that Republicans like Earl Warren were completely on board. You are so fucking predictable that we can anticipate your sad arguments.
Here's the thing. Most people won't go out there and put their neck out for anyone. Period. Full stop.
