My logical mind is reeling. Would the Holocaust have happened if Jews were willing and able to arm themselves? Do they really think the extreme Progressives that are taking over the Democrat Party wouldn't turn against them if given the opportunity?

Those protestors in Pittsburgh. One article said that was inspired by a Soros group. It's past time for traditional liberals to do some critical thinking.

Would the Holocaust have happened if Jews were willing and able to arm themselves?

Yes. Would have given the Reich a reason for the slaughter, rebellion. One percent or so of the population can't do much. Being personally armed, could that save the life of youself and you family by enabling flight. Absolutely. And give pause to the man knocking at your door. And in the Weimer days the Nazis weren't the only armed militias. Heck, todays Antifa was the Communist militia post 1932 when the "official" Communist militia was outlawed. The Nazis simply prevailed.
