"Then two bullets."
oh man, I've just scrolled through the comments section of this one:
now I'm dreading what the video itself is gonna be like
```likely not. as the germans could exterminate entire families and villages for every German soldier killed. if for every man you kill we will kill your one family, you lose encouragement o fight.```
fuckin' derp
nevermind this attitude lost the Germans the support of the entire Ukrainian populace
```Yea, why let people even have a sliver of a chance at surviving. It's better just to comply with genocidal dictators.```
Well, at least there are dissenting opinions there
I'd love to know how many of the pro-gun control people are of the NatSoc/AR variety
Having a well armed population will never fend off a well-trained army. Please don't mention Vietnam, okthanxbye.
```Half a million Jews and more political dissidents to the Nazis being armed indiscriminately from the rest of the population would definitely hurt the Nazis. Imagine the SS coming to their houses to take them away and fire fights ensue all over the country between people's old neighbors and co-workers. Instead of having them leave with the police peacefully they'd be seen dragged away with blood or shot in the streets. It would shift the majority of the population's opinion on Hitler from a benevolent nationalist to a ruthless dictator.```
As a dirty foreinger I should do some more research into the American Revolutionary war, just to see how.. asymmetric the warfare actually was
But I think it's probably still a reasonable enough example in of itself, despite many of the officers within the revolutionary army having served with the British empire in the past
I've seen this video before
And a similar discussion happened here already
I have to agree with 3 arrows and the German dude who was here
Guns wouldn't have changed that
Because they voted for Hitler
Plus, It's the 40s information wasn't as spread and it is right now ( even with the current state of things, you still have a lot of uniformed people nowadays, imagine in the 40s and 30s)
I had to explain to my sister that Hitler was voted in
eh
six of one, half dozen of the other
People seem to forget there were two pieces of gun legislation, for starters
I don't know, police doesn't appear as willing to walk into buildings with well armed people and drag them out.
I think Germany already had a gun registry by.. 1928?
@DanielKO
They have the army and the Gestapo for that
It's nice to know which of your potential opponents and dissidents could be armed
Look, if people wanted to fight, they would have done it
Guns wouldn't have changed that
Even if it's the army; would any soldier volunteer to be the first to enter into a building full or Jews fearful for their lives, and packing heat?
There is a few exemples in France and Poland, people without guns that formed a resistance group and fought the Nazis
Guns won't give you a fighting spirit
Either you have it or acquire it
If you don't have it, you don't have it, and guns won't change that
French and Polish resistance were unarmed? Where you getting *that* from?
And an old man can have as much fighting spirit as he wants, it ain't gonna mean shit if he can't fight
@Reaps
At the start, they acquired guns after
Here's a recent example: Brazil has slums, right? Weren't they occupied by the army just recently to reestablish order? How did that work out?
@DanielKO
Wonderfully, violence is dropping
