The German National Socialists disarmed the populace, and that is why no effective resistance arose in Germany. Under the Nazis, certain citizens were thought not to need guns to protect themselves, and hunting and sport shooting were not legitimate needs according to the government. The Nazis used the gun registry of the former Weimar Republic to keep firearms from disfavored groups. Halbrook showed in “Gun Control in the Third Reich: Disarming the Jews and ‘Enemies of the State,’” that turns out to be very much like the sort of conditions Justice Stevens wants to impose on the United States. Imagine too that you lived under the kind of regime the Nazis imposed.Contrast that with the outcome if the driver should find you unarmed. Imagine how you could stop this attack with a handgun.
