Their efficacy was extremely low with the abscence of firearms; we're also talking about occuppied countries during a war, rather than pre-39 people

They are not fighting the population, they are fighting organized crime

Again, it's apple and oranges

Which I assume is a minority of the population in the slums, right?

Yeah

Yet, they make it too hostile for police to deal with it.

Yeah

You actually can't see the difference?

The point is, the Nazis would have to patrol their cities with military to fight off a significant amount of armed civilians that could potentially shoot them from anywhere.

It's not like the Nazis steqmrolled entire villages because a few people shot at them

I'm not saying the population can outgun the army, but they could certainly make them wary of steamrolling everyone.

No, they would just kill everyone and call it a day

Like

And it's not like that wasn't a huge propoganda coup for the allies when they did it

They did

Lol

They did still

And even with them doing it

The majority of people didn't stand up and fought

I don't think your words are making sense.

yeah

Did the population, under Nazi control, have guns to protect themselves?

I don't think you understand what you arw talking about

this went off the rails quickly

You really giving me shit for being Brazilian

Because you can't make an argument

I'm not. I guess you're too sensitive about it.

You are comparing police action with an authoritarian government

And Implying it's the same thing

I was going to use an European country for that, but they're all pussies now.

Guns don't give you magical powers

Guns won't make you brave

Guns won't make you a warrior

They don't. But they make your oppressor scared of uniting everyone against them.

@DanielKO
It don't mean much when they can kill everyone

The idea that "if they had guns this wouldn't have happened" is just nonsense

If you know you're going to die if they come and take you away, wouldn't rather die trying to kill as many as you could?

@DanielKO
Yeah, how many they killed again?

I think guns would have significantly altered the logistics and efficacy of arresting all the Jews.

How many knew they were going to die and did nothing?

Yes, Hitler could then put more effort into locking down cities for the purges, but how much more expensive would it be?
