Today was Hitler’s birthday. He killed millions of people, after he disarmed them using gun registration records – like those which Cuomo and Holder are gathering illegally.
On Nov. 8, The New York Times reported from Berlin, “Berlin Police Head Announces ‘Disarming’ of Jews,” explaining: “The Berlin Police President, Count Wolf Heinrich von Helldorf, announced that as a result of a police activity in the last few weeks the entire Jewish population of Berlin had been ‘disarmed’ with the confiscation of 2,569 hand weapons, 1,702 firearms and 20,000 rounds of ammunition. Any Jews still found in possession of weapons without valid licenses are threatened with the severest punishment.”
On the evening of Nov. 9, Adolph Hitler, Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels and other Nazi chiefs planned the attack. Orders went out to Nazi security forces: “All Jewish stores are to be destroyed immediately . Jewish synagogues are to be set on fire . The Führer wishes that the police does not intervene. All Jews are to be disarmed. In the event of resistance they are to be shot immediately.”
All hell broke loose on Nov. 10: “Nazis Smash, Loot and Burn Jewish Shops and Temples,” a headline read. “One of the first legal measures issued was an order by Heinrich Himmler, commander of all German police, forbidding Jews to possess any weapons whatever and imposing a penalty of twenty years confinement in a concentration camp upon every Jew found in possession of a weapon hereafter.”4 Thousands of Jews were taken away.
Searches of Jewish homes were calculated to seize firearms and assets and to arrest adult males. The American Consulate in Stuttgart was flooded with Jews begging for visas: “Men in whose homes old, rusty revolvers had been found during the last few days cried aloud that they did not dare ever again return to their places of residence or business. In fact, it was a mass of seething, panic-stricken humanity.”5
Himmler, head of the Nazi terror police, would become an architect of the Holocaust, which consumed 6 million Jews. It was self-evident that the Jews must be disarmed before the extermination could begin.
Finding out which Jews had firearms was not too difficult. The liberal Weimar Republic passed a Firearm Law in 1928 requiring extensive police records on gun owners. Hitler signed a further gun control law in early 1938.
Other European countries also had laws requiring police records to be kept on persons who possessed firearms. When the Nazis took over Czechoslovakia and Poland in 1939, it was a simple matter to identify gun owners. Many of them disappeared in the middle of the night along with political opponents.
Needless to say, the National Socialist Party of Germany (NAZI) did not give up their weapons. This is the ammo they used to gun down civilians. Note the swastika stamped on the shell.
Don’t bother remembering Hitler’s birthday, though; his birth is not worth celebrating, and that would be a real waste of your brain.
Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.
It is an eerie repeat of history, the confiscation of weapons. However, it would seem that 90% of the population have no dog in this fight, have never owned guns or have any desire to do so.
Half of American households own legal guns. The 90% number is the usual Obama BS.
Why do you think politicians listen to the NRA?
So my notion that only 10% of people have a dog in the fight is quite far off. That is what I get for living in a liberal enclave where no one would dare go near a gun, except the criminals.
If the pretrib interpretation of the Ezekiel 38 war (Russia, Iran, Libya & pals vs. Israel) is valid, wouldn’t it require the absence of the global cop? I mean, those turkeys wouldn’t budge if there was a chance of nuclear bliss being showered on them, and it would if a multi-million man army made a move on Israel. So, the norteamericanos must be gelded, and likely the Israelis also ditch the nukes that they don’t have, and remove that pesky antiterror fence and all the other stuff they use to prevent their neighbours swamping them with peace, love & joy. You’re going to have a hard time in the near future, and all these little nibbles at the edge of the 2nd A. (I mean the BoR 2nd A., not Biden) just aren’t going to get the job done. Expect something Spectacular.
