A lesson on gun control....
I Thought you might appreciate this . . .
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 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 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 them of this history
lesson.
With guns, we are 'citizens'. Without them, we are 'subjects'.
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they
knew most Americans were ARMED!
If you value your freedom, Please spread this anti-gun control message
to all of your friends.

I can't imagine not having my Sig P226 or Remington 870. Damn, I wish I could own a AR-15 and AK-47, but damn assault rifle law!
They do sell Cali compliant AR-15s with solid mounted 10-round receivers, but who wants that?

Ha!! My gun safe in buried into the foundation wall of my house.
They will have quite a struggle getting my weapons.
I carry mine everywhere but work, and where the WA State RCW's doesn't allow. After all MOST gun owners are outstanding citizens.
Public execution of criminals would be a good deterent for crime.
In order for it to really work you would have to line up the lawyers that defend these piles of trash first.

Yes, I hate the gun law here in California. Considering we have Republican Governor and heavy military population (especially here in San Diego), we are stuck with these crappy gun laws!
