Why do some feel the need to have communist gun control laws?

Question

If a burglar broke into my house, should I then support the government in banning guns?

Answer 1

All would be Dictators start their rise to Control by disarming the People. Then, only his private army would have guns.
The 2nd amendment to the U. S. Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, can not be changed by stupid Liberals passing a Law.

Answer 2

actually i am american and i live in a gun controlled country, denmark. There are 1- 3 murders a year and that is without guns. I feel totally safe and not as a prisoner as i did in the states to the guns and people who own guns, not knowing if the next place i walk into i will be killed. And not to mention the fact that in denmark we are way more free then in america, and that is in every aspect of life. Now denmark is a small country, but it is compared to houston texas. It has the same population and there are still way more murders there than here. So if you have never been out of the states or lived in another country you have no basis for comparision. It's a shame that 32 lives were worth on 572 dollars. And yes guns do kill people, without the guns at least the victim has a fighting chance to stand up for themselves and not be such a coward like the person using the gun.

Britain's becoming more and more like a dictatorship since 1997. Labour ignore what hte people want, introduce surveillance everywhere, tell people how to live and opress ethnic minorities, picking on the Muslims (just as the Nazis did to the Jews, neither group was able to fight back).
And when Japan banned guns it was ruled by warlords, first the Samurai then an autocracy under the Meiji emperor.
Not all communist countries banned guns, under Lenin Russians could own whatever weapon they wanted.
Gun control came with Stalin (more of a fascist than a communist), he disarmed his subjects so they couldn't resist his purges and genocide. Hitler and Mussolini also banned guns, so gun control isn't socialist but even worse: FASCIST.

Answer 4

Communism is an economic system where the state owns all means of production. It doesn't work, but it is not a government in the sense you are using the word.

The totalitarian governments that normally head countries with communism as the prevailing economic system must render the populace incapable of any form of violent resistance that exceeds trowing rocks. Socialism is almost as bad, the government may not be totalitarian but the hand of the government is very heavy and your privacy is nil. Therefore the location and confiscation of all privately owned firearms is an absolute must in order to institute either economic system.

The liberal factions of our government want nothing more than to institute a form of socialism closely resembling communism and in order to do so they must have an unarmed populace.

Thomas Jefferson once said something to this effect. An armed man is a citizen, an unarmed man is a subject and I chose to add my own closing remark, a disarmed man is a prisoner.

The USA has armed men and we are considered citizens, Britain has unarmed men and they are subjects. And if you recall the Berlin wall you can complete the comparison.

Unfortunately there are people in the US who believe the police protect them. All the police can do is gather the bodies and hope they don't have to confront a perpetrator. If you are forbidden from protecting yourself, you are completely defenseless. BTW, the Supreme Court held that a citizen could not sue the police for any degree of negligence regardless of how blatant it might be.

Cheers.

Answer 5

People seem to forget that although killing peole is against the law, people still do it. Stealing, robbing and raping is against the law, but people still do it. Rules only work for the people willing to follow them. Take guns away from the people willing to follow the rules and only those who won't follow the rules will have them. If a single student, teacher, or janitor at Virginia Tech had been carrying a gun, many more might have survived. If the professor that used his body to shield his students had been carring a pistol, he could have saved his life, those of his students, and those killed after he died.

Why do our laws protect the criminal by denying the obedient citizen the right to defend themselves? That twisted young man attacked a school because he knew he was perfectly safe doing so. Only he was going to be armed. It's been proven repeatedly - there's no safer place for a killer to pull off a massacre than at a school or church.

Defend your rights - go get a concealed weapons permit.

Answer 6

No. Gun control laws don't work because of: The only people a gun control law would restrain are those who are likely to obey laws (ie. the good citizen.) a criminal can just get a gun illegally. All a gun control law does is tells a criminal that the criminal can be confident in mugging this upright-looking citizen, because that citizen will not have a gun. and even if gun control did work because we had a gigantic Gestapo/1984 secret police storming every home in America using it, criminals could just use other weapons.

Answer 7

Very good question!!! I think some high up Liberal has a plan TOTAL CONTROL OF THE POPULATION they would like to take our guns away like Hitler,King George and Stalin so if they did actually get power their would be no revolt against there ways!!! Look at Rosie she wants all guns gone BUT HER BODY GUARDS CARRY GUNS!!

Answer 8

Ya know, Canada has some pretty easy going gun laws, and yet you don't see them slaughtering each other like in the US. Why is that?

Answer 9

It makes it easier for the government to control everything without fear of an uprising or assassination attempts. The sheeple are much easier to oppress.

Answer 10

You would have liked Germany in the mid 30's huh
