Wow. Use facts and you are a 'fool' according to the virtue signalling Greens. The families of the dead kids are unlikely to have given a damn before it happened to THEIR kids. Humans are like that: not perfect, unlike the Greens' impression of themselves. Did the grieving woman screaming at Trump via the TV camera do the same after all the other shootings? Nope! Whatever laws the Americans come up with, they have to be based on reality and fact, not on emotional, Left wing nonsense politics. We all wish these things didn't happen; but the fact is - very few people, even in America, die by the gun.

Is Mise,

I note the lack original documents in your reference, so we can't be sure one way or the other.

ttbn,

"Claim: “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.”

This is misleading. Jews were prohibited from owning guns and disarmed. Overall, however, gun control laws passed by the Nazis in 1938 actually loosened firearms restrictions that had been in force since the end of World War I.

Gun ownership was banned outright for all German citizens in 1919. A 1928 revision of the law lifted the ban, while still requiring individuals to obtain permits to own, sell, carry, or manufacture firearms. According to Stephen Halbrook, author of Gun Control in the Third Reich: Disarming the Jews and ‘Enemies of the State’ (Independence Institute, 2013), the Nazis used the extant law when they came to power in 1933 to revoke the permits of communists, Jews, and other “undesirables,” and disarm them. The first gun law actually enacted under Nazi rule, the German Weapons Act of 1938, eased some of the permit requirements (those on rifles and ammunition, though not on handguns), and lowered the legal age for the possession of firearms, but also forbade Jews, specifically, from manufacturing or selling arms.

The Regulations Against Jews’ Possession of Weapons, enacted later that year, prohibited Jews from possessing or carrying any kind of weapon at all.

So, while the Nazis ultimately favored loosening gun restrictions on the German population as a whole, the disarmament of Jews and other targeted minority populations was an essential feature of Hitler’s genocidal program, which included the murder of six million Jews (and millions of others deemed unworthy to live under the Third Reich) between 1938 and the end of World War II.

Sorry I couldn't find the original German laws.

Paul,

No one wants to hush anything up, unlike the Greens we don't rush in for a dubious political point or two.

Why didn't you have anything to say about the worst school shootings to date?
I note that Sarah "Sea Patrol" and the boss man didn't mention them either.

One day people might become smart enough to see the massacres in schools are far more to do with the total breakdown of morals and structure caused by putrid secularism. The ones proteting the loudest sre usually the champions of the real cause.

"The Regulations Against Jews’ Possession of Weapons, enacted later that year, prohibited Jews from possessing or carrying any kind of weapon at all."

Now just note that Australia believes in doing the same, except that it does not discriminate.

Emperor,

Trump is talking sense, teachers are there, on the spot, and on the spot first responders need to be armed against an attacker(s).

What provisions are there in Australian schools if the school is attacked?
Apart from ringing '000'.

Dear runner,

The US has the highest number of Christians in the entire world. Look how that is going for them. These mass shooters are overwhelmingly white and from christian backgrounds. What do you think that tells us?
