Jewish plutocrats Michael Bloomberg and Diane Feinstein want to disarm the American public for the benefit of the gang bangers and home invaders, while they hide behind their own armed bodyguards and tell the rest of us how to live our lives.

"The honest definition of "gun control" is actually "victim disarmament", because the person with the gun will always control the person without the gun... Our Jewish tradition tells us that righteous self-defense is not only permissible but an obligation: 'If a murderer comes for you, strike him down first'... Mayor Bloomberg, have you studied Jewish history? Are you aware that the Nazis disarmed Jews prior to Kristallnacht* and that those same Nazi gun laws are the foundation of the U.S. Gun Control Act of 1968?"

Here's a short video report about a black criminal in Georgia who broke into a woman's home, threatening her and her two young children. He found them hiding in the attic. Fortunately, she had a pistol and he didn't. She shot him several times, but he managed to escape anyway. The story would have ended much differently if she had been disarmed as the "liberals" intend.

Too bad she only had an old-fashioned revolver, and not a Glock semi-auto with 15 rounds in the clip. Otherwise, there would now be one less career "perpetrator" living at taxpayer expense, waiting for another chance to rob, rape, and murder.

In Chicago, a city with strict "gun control" laws, another white victim of the criminal underclass was not so lucky. Two black gangsters came to rob his muffler shop and shot him in the back. They escaped, and he died on the way to the hospital. He was disarmed and had no defense, because he was a law-abiding citizen.

American founder Thomas Paine described this utopian fallacy two centuries ago:

"The supposed quietude of a good man allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms -- like laws -- discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world, as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside... Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them...."

Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it. "Horrid mischief" is evidently what Diane Feinstein and her fellow plunderers have in mind.

"Three million Germans were imprisoned for political reasons [by the National Socialists] between 1933 and 1945, and tens of thousands were executed... A well-meaning liberal republic enacted a gun control law that was highly useful to the dictatorship that followed, which consolidated its power by massive search and seizure operations against political opponents...disarming anyone the police deemed 'dangerous' and exempting members of the party that controlled the state."

-- Stephen Halbrook

"And how we burned in the [Soviet forced labor] camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?... We didn't love freedom enough. And even more - we had no awareness of the real situation.... We submitted with pleasure! We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward."

"Genrikh Yagoda, the greatest Jewish murderer of the 20th Century, [was] the GPU's deputy commander and the founder and commander of the NKVD. Yagoda diligently implemented Stalin's collectivization orders and is responsible for the deaths of at least 10 million people. His Jewish deputies established and managed the Gulag system."
