some gun history

Postby Nathandavis101 » Sat Jan 20, 2007 2:30 pm

this was email to me yesterday about the history of gun control


Gun History

Whether you agree or
not, it's an interesting lesson in history.
Something to think about...

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 ounded 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 (yes, 44
percent)!
In the state
of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now
up 300
percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in,
the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their 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 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 American evening news or hear our
president,governors or other politicians disseminating this
information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save
lives and property and, yes,
gun-control laws 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'.

I agree with what you say. It is a nice write-up, thank you for putting the time into that so we can read it. It is amazing how gun-control effected Australia, yet expected. I believe the same will happen in the US.
