Promoted from the Comments – A History of the Results of Gun Control

by

Fairly new Grokster Ray Cardello had a post ‘The Left Only Sees Gun Control.’ “Over the weekend, we saw Biden resort to his old claim that the Second Amendment is not absolute. That is his interpretation and certainly not shared by many.

“He uses the example that you could not buy a canon at the time of writing the Bill of Rights. That is his assumption and not based on fact. For some unknown reason, Biden is going after 9mm handguns while Kamala Harris wants a ban on assault weapons. There is no connection between 9mm handguns and mass shootings and no such category as assault weapons. How can you defend either of these arguments?

How serious can Democrats claim to be on solving mass shootings when they have no interest in discussing options. There is no securing schools, discussion on mental health issues, or consideration of Red Flag issues. Just take away legal guns from law-abiding citizens.”

If you amy time surfing the ‘Net or watching the Left-leaning “news/opinion” shows on MSNBC, CNN, or the like, they’re all clamoring to confiscate ALL guns.  You don’t “need” them in our civilized society.  We have “evolved” past such things, they say.

They also have trouble separating inanimate objects from those mental cases and retards (there, THAT will set some Wokesters off!) that have no regard for human life other than their own urges, thoughts, and feelings. These shooters are ONLY about one thing – themselves.

And I blame the Left for changing OUR Culture such as our societal norms allow this to happen.  I grew up when a lot of high school kids had their hunting rifles in their pickups from either before school or after school hunts – we didn’t HAVE this problem.  The Left has destroyed the idea of Respect for others and has replaced it with the notion that others HAVE to respect ME!

The results speak for themselves.

Anyways, new Commenter Marina Vaslovik has a great recounting of times and countries where the Elite of that country decided to disarm that I’ve decided needs to be on the front page:

Are you considering backing gun control laws? Do you think that because you may not own a gun, the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment don’t matter?

CONSIDER:
In 1929 the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, approximately 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915-1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, 13 million Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, the mentally ill, and others, who were unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million “educated” people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

That places total victims who lost their lives because of gun control at approximately 56 million in the last century. Since we should learn from the mistakes of history, the next time someone talks in favor of gun control, find out which group of citizens they wish to have exterminated.

And here is the idea that the Left in the US WON’T accept: it can happen here in the US.  They refuse to acknowledge that history can and does repeat itself.  Since they don’t accept that America is an “Exceptional Country” on its founding merits, they have changed those merits to THEIR merits.

All bets are now off – destroy the foundational ideas laid down by the Sociological and Political Geniuses that YOU aren’t and you will wind up with the chaos you seek.

Problem is, there are a lot of us who are fighting, still, for our founding ideas:
