Do you want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military?

This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future! – Adolph Hitler [1935] The Weapons Act of Nazi Germany
"scorebore" I think the point is so big, you are having trouble seeing it.
"greg r" Thank you thank you thank you
Germans who wish to use firearms should join the SS or the SA – ordinary citizens don’t need guns, as their having guns doesn’t serve the State. – Heinrich Himmler

Law abiding citizens can have all the guns they want. Everyone I know has at least one. If the police show up to take my gun, well, there will be some shooting. It is my right to have one and to defend myself in my home. Badge or no badge, no one will get it without getting shot.

Never! They’d have to take me to jail to get my gun!

Adolf Hitler, Dick Cheney…what’s the difference?

No
Is there an actual point to this question?
EDIT: Ahhh. more conspiracy stuff. I doubt the govt. will take away our right to bare arms. Since the only rights they have taken away are the ones they think will protect us from terrorists

no way!!!

just because it’ll be illegal wont mean it’ll be the way things will be. drugs are illegal and millions of people use and posses them. It’s a nice concept in theory, but so are a lot of things. *sigh* ….. What about people who hunt? That’s a lot of votes against the subject right there.
it wouldnt get my vote. i’m in the military, and i hunt, and i just like guns. I feel safer having my loaded 9mm next to my bed and arsenal of others in the closet

Does not the Bill of Rights guarentee my right to bear arms?

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
Here is a copy of the Second Amendment. I don’t think that it says that you can bear arms as an individual. If you think having a gun is necessary, maybe you need to reevaluate the way that you are living your life.

I as a legal UNREGESTERED gun owner do not belive that the rights of the citizenery of any country are ever going to be protected by the milatary or the police. It is the duty of every citizen to own and know how to use there own wepons.
In the history of the world there are many times that t\it is sited that when the goverment pushes through wepon regestration it is shortly followed by the removel and crimnelation of wepons and there owners.
As long as we the people defend the constitution and the secant amendment we will stay a free country.

Guns are arms, and so are nuclear bombs. I don’t think it’s a good idea for nukes to be easily available, but I don’t care much if people have rifles, pistols and shotguns – if they keep them away from kids. The second highest cause of death in children is guns not responsibly secured. Does this argue for regulation? Probably. Remember, we are one of the few nations in the world that don’t have registration or outright banning of certain weapons.

That’s a bogus quote you have:
"This year* will go down in history! For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration! Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future!" – falsely attributed to Adolf Hitler (1889-1945), "Abschied vom Hessenland!" ["Farewell to Hessia!"], ['Berlin Daily' (Loose English Translation)], April 15th, 1935, Page 3 Article 2, Einleitung Von Eberhard Beckmann [Introduction by Eberhard Beckmann] [This quotation, often seen without any date or citation at all, suffers from several credibility problems, the most significant of which is that the date given (*in alternate versions, the words "This year..." are replaced by "1935...") has no correlation with any legislative effort by the Nazis for gun registration, nor would there have been a need for the Nazis to pass such a law, since gun registration laws passed by the Weimar government (in part to address street violence between Nazis and Communists!) were already in effect. The Nazi Weapons Law (or_Waffengesetz_) which further restricted the possession of militarily useful weapons and forbade trade in weapons without a government-issued license was passed on March 18, 1938. The citation usually given for this quote is a jumbled mess, and has only three major clues from which to work. The first is the date, which does not correspond (even approximately) to a date on which Hitler made a public speech, and a check of the texts of Hitler's speeches does not reveal a quotation resembling this (which is easily understandable when you realize that "Hitler" is commenting on a non-existent law). The second clue is the newspaper reference, which if translated into German resembles the title of a newspaper called _Berliner Tageblatt,_ and a check of the issue for that date reveals that the page and column references given are to the arts and culture page! No Hitler speech appears in the pages of_Berliner Tageblatt_on that date, or dates close to it, because there was no such speech to report. Finally, the citation includes a proper name "Eberhard Beckmann," which is sometimes cited as "by Einleitung Von Eberhard Beckmann," which is an important clue itself, because it reveals that the citation was fabricated by someone who had so little knowledge of the German language that they were unaware that "Einleitung" isn't the fellow's first name! The only "Eberhard Beckmann" which has been uncovered thus far did indeed write introductions, but he was a journalist for a German broadcasting company after WWII, and he wrote several introductions to_photography books,_ one of which was photos of the German state of Hesse (or Hessia), which may be the source of the curious phrase "Abschied vom Hessenland!" which appears in the citation. This quotation, however effective it may be as propaganda, is a fraud.]
The following is valid:
"Der groBte Unsinn, den man in den besetzen Ostgebieten machen konne, sei der, den unterworfenen Volkern Waffen zu geben. Die Geschicte lehre, daB alle Herrenvolker untergegangen seien, nachdem sie den von ihnen unterworfenen Volkern Waffen bewilligt hatten." [The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so.] – Adolf Hitler (1889-1945), April 11, 1942, quoted in _Hitlers Tischegesprache Im Fuhrerhauptquartier 1941-1942,_[Hitler's Table-Talk at the Fuhrer's Headquarters 1941-1942], Dr. Henry Picker, ed. (Athenaum-Verlag, Bonn, 1951) [This quotation also appears in a slightly different (and, I’ve been told, less accurate) English translation in the book_Hitler’s Secret Conversations_(Farrar, Straus and Young, 1953). The original source is notes taken by Hitler associate Martin Bormann, a document called _Bormann-Vermerke.

YES.Lesser crimes in the streets.Nobody can just pull the trigger to anyone.But, the police & military should not use it as a power to arrest individuals even without violations.

Don’t forget the criminals. Do not let the few misguided do-gooders lure you into thinking that you are safer if the public doesn’t own guns (registered and unregistered) for self-defense, protection of property, and to ensure that government does not relinquish our right to bear arms.
