A lady in our town survived the Holocaust in Belgium. She often spoke to students how the invading Nazis cut all lines of communications, then used a small contingent to conquer town after town. The citizens had no guns and were literally in the dark about what was going on until the war was over.

That is the point of keeping them unarmed , and helpless. So that the terrorists, whoever they happen to be, will have the edge. And the sheep bought into it lock, stock, and barrelhead.

Don’t believe it? Listen to the Liberal “guns are bad and the police will protect us crowd”.>

The legally armed are a threat not only to the terrorists but to the unaccountable irresponsible criminal government
