You are wrong about Nazi's opposing traditional morals.

The Nazis openly supported illegitimacy and encouraged "Aryan" women to reproduce "Aryan" children despite their marital status. If you were familiar with the Lebensborn you wouldn't make such comments.

the so-called, rank and file Nazi was disgusted by the permissive sexual breakdown during the '20s in their culture and voted for the party in opposition to the liberal culture of the time

The party opposed to the permissive sexual breakdown of Germany in the 1920s was the Catholic Centre Party, not the Nazis.

The Nazi voter was voting for a leftist program of guaranteed employment and opposition to the "Jewish" free enterprise system of the Allies.

Anyone whose prime concern was sexual morality voted Centre.

BTW, there was free enterprise in Germany during the war.

A cartel competing for a limited number of licenses in industries that are mandatorily unionized by government fiat is not "free enterprise."

I mean, be serious.

We shouldn't lump all of those of certain traits into the Nazi bin because you may be called one next, and the Nazi's were and are too important an historical fact to not examine exclusively.

The Nazis were leftists. I did not claim that all leftists were Nazis - Nazis were simply a subset of the left, not the entirety thereof.

And I get called a Nazi all the time by idiots who think that a right to smoke crack emanates from the penumbras of the US Constitution. They also have no understanding of who the Nazis were.

Nazis were the complete opposite of American conservatives.

The only possible superficial point of contact was that Nazis claimed to be patriotic - but in reality, they placed loyalty to their Darwinist concept of race over loyalty to their country and (especially) its (Jewish) citizens.

[Final Authority]

Didn't many voters of the Nazi party vote to prevent the intrusion of the communist party?

The fact that the Catholic party opposed the permissive sexual breakdown, as no doubt they did, did not exclude the Nazi's from also opposing it.

The fact is, and we can agree on this, as was the intent of the question at the outset, and the intent of my posting this thread, who desires gun confiscation? Leftists only? Or, those who wish to impose a tyranny on the governed while preventing them from redressing it?

As I wrote earlier, and we may disagree on some understanding of what we believe to be facts, but the issue of invoking Nazi's (as it seems always to bring out self proclaimed experts) wasn't intended to make a case for something, but to make one think about the issue and to consider all of the possibilities, and to prevent conceptualizing simple solutions to difficult problems that we may regret.
