"Nothing to Fear"

Nazi PR flack (propaganda minister) Josef Goebbels once said, about gun registration, “If you have nothing to hide, why should you be afraid of gun registration?” I don’t know, let’s see: maybe when the government knows where all the guns are, they can come and take them when they’re ready to “take over,” as the Nazis did?  The “Big Mom” of “Moms Against Guns” quoted Goebbels recently in a Tweet. She didn’t give credit to the originator. Maybe she didn’t want to. But the whole point is that many regimes that later became dictatorships DID use gun registration to know where the guns were so they could later confiscate them. People like this think we don’t remember things like this. And a lot of us DON’T, or never learned it, in school. Frankly, the only time I want to know who owns a gun is after it has been USED by its owner in a crime. Not before. (Bearing Arms)
