Yes, the genocide, concentration camps, invasion of other countries, and gun registration and confiscation all go hand in hand. You do not have to be conservative to be the victim of tyrants.

Here we go with the 'German Weapons Law (Waffengesetz) of March 18, 1938'.:
Yes, it was a revised version of the 1928 law. Post WW-I law made it nearly impossible for private citizens to own a gun. Such strict restrictions were mandated by the Treaty of Versailles. The 1928 law made it possible own guns, but only with a hard-to-get permit and only for persons of "undoubted reliability". Gypsies etc people were not allowed to own them. The Nazi law in 1938 did the exact opposite of what you have been told. It loosened the 1928 law by leaps and bounds by deregulating rifles and shotguns and it made getting licenses for other weapons much easier. In this sense the NRA goals are more in line with the Nazi goals than with the anti-gunners.

Yes, I am a NRA member.

Me too and I am a member.

There are many at home here that would take every gun out of the hands of a citizen. Guns do cause crime . Criminals (they purchase Black Market Arms)cause crimes and put American Law abiding citizens at risk. .
