David David David I don’t know what to think of you. If all of the 40 year old Jewish men were armed, now THAT would have been a different story
Would you apply the same logic to DACA dreamers?
I need to amend this post with additional information. Wapo reported yesterday that there were a number of memorabilia that the shooter had, and the iron cross was only one of them. Apparently the shooter was working on personal identity issues - pretty much like every teenager - and focused on specific symbols, including the hammer and sickle from the Soviet Union (representing rebellion), Nazi Germany's iron cross (representing bravery), the Japanese Empire's rising sun for kamikazi tactics, the Knights' Templar "Baphomet" for evil and the Cthulhu for power. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...4a123c359ab_story.html?utm_term=.f64775d35388
Interesting that none of what he apparently valued comes from basic US or Christian decency, despite his having been raised in the US and at least somewhat active in his church.
No
That seems arbitrary. The German police were acting in accordance with law and policy under the Nazi party.
I'm trying to understand why you answered no to my question above. I assumed it had to do with the legality of the government's actions. But maybe there's some other reason you support armed resistance by German Jews but not US immigrants.
Let me cut to the chase. I don't buy the argument that we need an armed citizenry to guard against government tyranny. I'm a gun owner. But the gun culture in this country is out of control, to the point it appears willing to live with the ongoing residual damage of lives lost and blame the victims for not arming themselves.
I just don’t understand why you’re not upset over the opiate epidemic, That kills 147 people a day?
Nice deflection and dodge. Your boy has made nazis, bigots, racists, and dumb people all the rage. He stirs hatred, exclusion, calls nazis good people and leads the charge,,,and you say "its all of us" & yet I have never witnessed chants of " hang her" and so forth as your boy gleefully claps and cheers it on, own what is yours . You know your partyof personal responsibility ans all.
This is the argument that just makes me shake my head and want to cry and I hear it over and over. Are we really not smart enough to distinguish between the uses of a car and the uses of a gun? Are we really not smart enough to understand that it is much more difficult to get a licenense, pass a test, and have to renew it every year? Most gun control advocates would be thrilled with that. Stop making the freaking stupid car argument.
Let me know next time a keg of beer causes a mass murder. These silly cliches are so frustratingly old , worn out, and tired.
Your wish is my command, Carrollton Kentucky school bus crash 24 children and 3 adults died at the hands of a drunk driver going the wrong way on Interstate 71!
And if you hadn't typed that last line we could have had a reasonable discussion about licensing all fire arms at the local level (as in having been trained and tested prior to ownership (with the right to concealed carry thrown in).
The fact that you think everyone who doesn't agree with you is "stupid" is why no one trusts your ilk and don't even bother attempting to compromise with you on a national level.
My guess is that he has watched way too many action movies and thinks that if the middle aged Jews and their children had handguns and rifles they could have fought back the German army/Gesatpo/SS and their measly planes/bombs/military brigades.
I have heard the same argument from other “protect ourselves against the government types” and it is so far beyond delusional that it boggles the mind.
I said the car argument is stupid, and I’d guess you know that. I didn’t say you were stupid. Difference.
A quick YouTube search.... this speech is longer but at minute 29:40 she begins talking about gun control in Austria by the Nazi’s...if you get time listen to her entire speech. I am aware this was her experience but wow. She speaks about healthcare and has some issues with Obama...
Ok...you got me. If only she and all her neighbors had weapons the Nazi army would have fled in fear. You have done an excellent job proving your point.
Why fight back then is your defense? Just accept your fate is your position? People of Flight 93 would disagree with you....
Some say Let’s Roll.... you say Let’s Roll Over.....different kinds of people
By the way, I was asked a question about what German immigrants said that about guns. I posted one video...there are plenty more interviews with others. I know there is an intellectual debate (like most things) about this subject. I tend to listen intently to first hand experiences....something about classroom experience pales in comparison
Now that’s a dumb comment. Drunk drivers cause thousands. Of course you know that. Nobody talks about banning alcohol. They just talk about drinking and driving responsibility......
I’m sure if you try real hard you can see the relevance. The same relevance applies to the use of alcohol and guns. It is really very straight forward.
Your analogy, like your "logic", is so off base it makes me wonder if you write for the Onion.
You are actually comparing the very, very brave few people that defended themselves against horrible terrorists, in an enclosed environment on a plane, vs. people that would have had to repel the German Army?
