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 [Hitlol's], actually had tougher gun laws than the [Notsy] 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 [Hitlol] 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 [notsy] 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. |

| I am not saying that Lack of Gun control leads to dictatorship in developed countries, but even THAT would be a more fact based argument. |

| I could see why Hitlol wanted to give the guns to the people. It's a good protection against foreign invasion. (but apparently not good enough) |

| The vast majority of the population have access to guns was obviously not enough to prevent a tyrannical government, here. |

"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. Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let's not have any native militia or native police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order throughout the occupied Russian territories, and a system of military strong-points must be evolved to cover the entire occupied country." --Adolf Hitl0r
I am sure that quote tells you the direct opposite. |

A normal person would take any advice hitlol gives with a grain of salt.
A Libertarian would not. |

| He took them away from the people that conspired against him! Hitl0r was loved so they didn't want to get rid of him only the Jewish people did. |

Were they the Weimer regime's tools when they had no guns? |

"How exactly are a are a couple 100,000 jews going to defend themselves when the entire country has guns?" There were more than 100,000 Jews in Germany |

Israel must die for betraying the arabs!
Also what I am saying is there would have been a uprising if they had guns. |

"Israel survived off of billions of funding for conventional warfare the arabs were not prepared for." How many countries was it against some small country that received some money? |
