That wasn't a free election--what with German troops in the streets, Hitler Youth and Sturmabteilungen present at the polling places and the Gestapo keeping watch. Vincent Sheean, a left-leaning journalist provides a good eyewitness account of this election in his book Not Peace but a Sword (New York: Doubleday, 1939)
Lol. I kept misspelling GUNS and kept typing GUMs. It's pretty funny talking about registering guMs...I made me smile!!
Boil the frog slowly. If martial law and a complete police state are the end game then the powers that be are only going to get one shot at it, and they’re going to do it when they’re ready, and they know they can win.
Ping!
No guarantees in life but death and taxes. Plus if one believes in God, one + God is always a majority.
This is so obvious. Why is it so difficult for so many people to understand!?
Because it is easier to believe the Lies than Truth.
People are lazy and glued to their material stuff and don’t want to chance giving it up. Many people are religionless Christians-—as Pastor Bonhoeffer called the so-called “Christians” in Germany in the 30s
...they “think” they will be “safe” and allow others to lose their liberty-—like the majority of Germans when they caved to Hitler—thinking if they just “do” what he says, they (at least) are safe.
Most people are not students of history and understand even less what philosophy is. They believe Marxists/Nazis/Christians/Muslims all “think” the same and are basically “good”.
Important story.
“In this country all the guns are registered.”
I bet there are many, many millions that no one but the owners knows about!
I have no registered guns.
You're probably right.
Good for you.
It would be interesting to meet your gun dealer. His last name wouldn't be Nitty, would it? :o)
back in the 80’s when Polish jokes were the rage, we had a nurse aid that was a survivor of concentration camp. She still had her number on her forearm and blew up when she came to the nurses station and heard someone tell a polish joke...she said that was how the jews ended up being sent to camps. First you dehumanize a group, for her it was the jews that they made fun of. Then that progressed to dehumanize them...then sent them to camps as being less than human...We all stopped with the jokes about others.
I don’t understand that reference, but I have never purchased a gun from a gun dealer.
bfl
Well, if you never purchased a gun from a gun dealer then you are OUT of the gubbin loop. Good on you.
California is different. Before we married my husband worked in a sporting goods store and had several guns. He taught me to shoot. I liked the sig sauer pistol but my favorite was a nice, small Beretta that fit NICELY into my hand.
The target he set up for me was the face of Osama bin Laden. I got so I could plug a hole very nicely into Osasshole's beard ALMOST every shot!
Undoubtedly true. Don't the major gun makers keep records, though?
What country are you in???
