In the late 1930s, the German gov, told the people there was so much crime, and that it was done mainly with stolen guns! This, they said, made it necessary to make an armory in the local police stations of each town to store the people's firarms, so the criminals couldn't steal them. When the owner wanted to go hunting, all he had to do was check his old shotgun out, and go get some ducks for the table, clean his gun and bring it back to the police armory, for safe keeping! In less than one year, when they were sure they had all the honest people's guns, the locked the armory, and told the owners that their guns would not be available any longer, because crime was still rising, and because of that, they had decided only the police, and the army were allowed to have firearms.
Then the book burnings started, and within another year, the Jews, and all relegions that were not Hitler's religion, would be enemies of the state, and forced to live where they were told. Their property was seized, and they were first moved into the slums of the cities, then to work farms, and factories, and finally to concentration camps, and the crematoriums!
Gun regulations,like regesteration, other than for "CONVICTED" criminals, and unstable individuals, will always lead to oppression of the masses.
The only reason the 2nd amendment was placed in the bill of rights, was to keep our OWN government honest, not to fight a foreign enemy! An armed citizenry is hard to oppress!
The second amendment is the only thing that is totally different about the USA, from other countries, and sets us apart from the imperialest regimes! I, for one, would like to keep it that way!
