A Brief History
of Gun Control 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, one 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. It has now been 12 months since gun
owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal
firearms to be destroyed by their own Government, a program costing Australia
taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results are now in: ¨
Australia-wide,
homicides are up 3.2 percent. ¨
Australia-wide,
assaults are up 8.6 percent. ¨
Australia-wide,
armed robberies are up 44 percent! ¨
In
the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. While
law-abiding citizens turned in their guns, the criminals did not; so only criminals
still possess guns! ¨
While
figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery
with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since
criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed. ¨
There
has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly. Australian
politicians are at a loss to explain to the public how safety has decreased, after
such a monumental effort and expense was expended in successfully ridding
Australian society of guns. The Australian experience and the other
historical facts above prove it. 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 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 World War II the Japanese
decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED! 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!!!
It’s a no brainer! Don’t let our government waste millions of our
tax dollars in an effort to make all law abiding citizens an easy target. Just think how powerful our government
is getting! They think these other countries just didn’t do it right. Learn from history!
