A Little Gun History
This is in honor of the men and women who have served this country only to come back and find out what a mess we’ve made of it with our complacency.
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control.. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, 1 million educated people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million.
You won’t see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information. Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans, before it’s too late! The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson: With guns, we are citizens. Without them, we are subjects.
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew
most Americans were ARMED!The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental.
Switzerland issues every household a gun! Switzerland’s government trains every adult they issue a rifle. Switzerland has the lowest gun related crime rate of any civilized country in the world!!!
Don’t let our government waste millions of our tax dollars in an effort to make all law abiding citizens an easy target. I’m a firm believer of the 2nd Amendment. Just think about how powerful our government is getting. They think the countries listed here failed because they just didn’t do it right.
Learn from history. Support your Second Amendment rights.

Once again, I’ve miss stopping by and reading your blogs. Great post! A great reminder!
@bluedreamer85 - Gee Thanks! Yannow, there’s an RSS feed on the blog. Maybe you should drop it in Google Reader or something.
Because you stopped by, I saw your photos. You should do photoshoots more often and then come leave me comments so I will go look at your new photos.
And yes, I think that this is a very powerful message that needs to be spread. I also liked the clip. I think Nugent’s right on.
LOL haha…thanks…I don’t like using RSS feeders. As of right now i have Google Reader but rarely use it…
regarding the photo shoots…lol that was a one time thing for my friends art show..i doubt id do a retake again..
@bluedreamer85 - I could alternatively meet you in a hotel room if that is what it would take to see you naked.
@ProfessorTom - LOL….oh dear… behave now…
@bluedreamer85 - What’d I say?
Gun control – that’s like aiming, right?
@JJ_Ames - Did I post the protest stuff under the instructional video title again?
Amen. I couldn’t have said it better myself.
I wish more Americans were aware of the cold hard facts – the crime statistics – of what happens when there is gun control. It sure ain’t pretty. Sad thing is it should be common sense. Apparently our politicians lost that long ago…
@firetyger - The Second Amendment was put in there so that we the governed could keep the government in check.
Amen.
@ProfessorTom – So true, but little known. Unfortunately. And my idea of gun control means “hitting your target”.
@alampi - That’s what jj-ames said.
good post..
@tialoca_talks - Thanks.
thanks … and amen hallelujah!
You can’t argue with Uncle Ted!
@windupherskirt - It is my pleasure to be your humble servant.
@Irish_Russian - Nor would I want to. I think he’d think my arguments were an attack on his person and then I’d be so much residue on the environment.
@ProfessorTom - i’m glad to have discovered you …
@windupherskirt - I’m glad you found me too. And while it is true that I do have a reputation of being a dirty old man and your Xanga name amuses me, muchly, I won’t make lite of that fact.
Your naked lady flag body painting is fucking great.
Also, this post is informative. Seems like the type of stuff you’d find in a pamphlet.
Some sourcing would have been nice, though. But I totally rec’d!

@treelights - Your naked lady flag body painting is fucking great.
I know! It’s saucy, just like the principles that this nation was founded on.
Also, this post is informative. Seems like the type of stuff you’d find in a pamphlet.
It was one of those chain emails going around.
Some sourcing would have been nice, though.
Sometimes, it’s the thought that counts. Besides, if I had done all the work for you, you wouldn’t have anything to research.
