The Road to Tyranny Starts with Gun Control

The recent International Holocaust Remembrance Day is a reminder that the road to tyranny, oppression and genocide starts with gun control and confiscation. Examples of this abound in the 20th century from communism/socialism, fascism and totalitarianism which led to over 70 million deaths.

For those who think this can’t happen again, an investigative group has filmed paid organizers working for the Bernie Sanders campaign extolling communism, the Soviet Union, gulags, re-education camps for those who don’t agree with them, violence and destruction.

Many young people supporting the Sanders campaign did not grow up during the Cold War and were never taught the horrors of life under communism and thus they are making the mistake of not learning from history.

All the while, Democrats are going to extreme measures in their desire to control or confiscate guns and thus disarm American citizens.

“All too many of the great tragedies of history–Stalin’s atrocities, the killing fields of Cambodia, the Holocaust, to name a few–were perpetrated by armed troops against unarmed populations.” — Silveira v. Lockyer 2003

“The simple truth–born of experience–is that tyranny thrives best where government need not fear the wrath of an armed people.” —Judge Kozinski in Silveira v. Lockyer

“The propensity for governments to disarm their populations to pave the way for tyranny is, unfortunately, well known today and was well know to the Framers. During the course of the 20th century, the human race saw disarmament translate into no simple tyrannical governments but outright genocide, time and time again.” –-Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership amicus brief for DC v Heller
