Those people who favor gun control should read this and tell me where this info is untrue!

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 Australiataxpayers 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 (yes, 44 percent)! In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. Note that whilethe law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!It will never happen here? I bet the Aussies said that too!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 how public safety has decreased, after such 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. Take note my fellow Americans, before it ' s too late! The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind him of this history lesson. With Guns...........We Are 'Citizens'. Without Them........We Are 'Subjects'. During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED ! Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack on Pearl Harbor had attended Harvard U 1919-1921 & was Naval Attaché to the U. S. 1925-28. Most of our Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor & our Army had been deprived of funding & was ill prepared to defend the country. It was reported that when asked why Japan did not follow up the Pearl Harbor attack with an invasion of the U . S. Mainland, his reply was that he had lived in the U . S. & knew that almost all households had guns. If you value your freedom, Please spread this anti-gun control message to all your friends! The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing. |

SUPRIZE SUPRIZE.. THE GUN DONT KILL.. THE IDIOT BEHIND IT DOES. AND SORRY BUT ONLY A HUMAN IS CAPABLE OF FIRING A WEAPON. SO EITHER SOMEONE WAS NOT RESPONCIBLE OR... ANOTHER PERSON WAS INTENTIONALLY SHOOTING IT.
AND YES MOMINBOLT.. I TOTALLY AGREE.
GREAT !!!!!!-------Criminals will not abide the law!!! What makes people think they will abide gun control????GO NRA !!!!! 
Those who do not know their history are doomed to repeat it.
Great post!!
It would be nice if the people who continue to post the article about australian gun laws get their facts right.
Check out snopes.com if you want the real information.
No high school or college masacres. No masacres at shopping centers or places of work since the gun buy back. What do you need a semi-automatic or a pump action shot gun for anyway?????
Victoria has a bad case of cops getting over zealous and shooting and killing people when arresting them.
I am not saying that there aren't people who illegally have guns but it is a far safer country when it comes to guns than the US.
Great Post! United we stand divided we fall. Defenceless we are all a possible victim!
Amen! And some want to take our guns away already! I will give up my gun when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers!!! Bump!
