gun control...Socialists and nazis are incestuous soulmates... really two sides of the same coin.
Can you identify the equivalent views held by Nazis and Liberals on the social issues?
Wrong. The Nazis didn't take away all guns.
University of Chicago law professor Bernard Harcourt explored this myth in depth in a 2004 article published in the Fordham Law Review. As it turns out, the Weimar Republic, the German government that immediately preceded Hitler’s, actually had tougher gun laws than the Nazi regime. After its defeat in World War I, and agreeing to the harsh surrender terms laid out in the Treaty of Versailles, the German legislature in 1919 passed a law that effectively banned all private firearm possession, leading the government to confiscate guns already in circulation. In 1928, the Reichstag relaxed the regulation a bit, but put in place a strict registration regime that required citizens to acquire separate permits to own guns, sell them or carry them.
The 1938 law signed by Hitler that LaPierre mentions in his book basically does the opposite of what he says it did. “The 1938 revisions completely deregulated the acquisition and transfer of rifles and shotguns, as well as ammunition,” Harcourt wrote. Meanwhile, many more categories of people, including Nazi party members, were exempted from gun ownership regulations altogether, while the legal age of purchase was lowered from 20 to 18, and permit lengths were extended from one year to three years.
The law did prohibit Jews and other persecuted classes from owning guns, but this should not be an indictment of gun control in general. Does the fact that Nazis forced Jews into horrendous ghettos indict urban planning? Should we eliminate all police officers because the Nazis used police officers to oppress and kill the Jews? What about public works — Hitler loved public works projects? Of course not. These are merely implements that can be used for good or ill, much as gun advocates like to argue about guns themselves. If guns don’t kill people, then neither does gun control cause genocide (genocidal regimes cause genocide).
The Hitler gun control lie
They loosened gun laws for nazi party members moron....not Jews or their political enemies......what is it about that that you guys don't understand...oh, that's right, you do....you just choose to lie about it....from your own fucking link....
The law did prohibit Jews and other persecuted classes from owning guns, but this should not be an indictment of gun control in general.
So, only the people who were loyal to the nazi party were allowed to own guns...and the people who were not allowed to own guns were eventually sent to gas chambers.....are you really this dumb....?
Read some actual history, written by actual historians...not Bill O'Reilly or the NRA head.
