If you're in favor of gun control, you oughta look up to people like Hitler and Stalin cause they definitely believed in gun control.

Bottom line, the government ultimately wants a population that is disarmed. And it has nothing to do with keeping people safe (as is often the garb) and everything to do with enhancing their power. An armed population is more independent and less inclined to look to government for subsistence and are less likely to offer up any kind of resistance to their authority. ALL OF THE DICTATORS in the past understood this and you think our governments don't understand this? Or perhaps you think our situation is different to other countries and our leaders want our guns because they genuinely care about our safety? If you believe that, I have some beach property to sell you in Montana.
