Since most civilized countries have various levels of gun control, if the gun fetishists are correct then why aren't most countries run by fascist dictators? Why aren't we seeing an England and Australia run by mini hits? Or Canada? Or Japan? etc, etc.,
(I know the hitler took their guns story is fake anyway, but the though process that goes into this crap...)

(14,400 posts)that the only thing they can think about is the worst possible scenario. "We have guns now...no Hitler therefore if we lose our guns HITLER...it's the only scenario that makes sense!!!"
The paranoid fucks are even dumber in that there hasn't been a concrete effort by anybody to actually instill any kind of confiscation of weapons from even the most paranoid of the loony shits.
