  To be fair, the United States just lost a war to a bunch of goat farmers. But I don't think the average American is anywhere near as brave or experienced as your average Taliban insurgent.

  First, not as many people in Germany in 1930's carried guns as a form of self defense. Most gun owners were people who hunted for sport or to sell wild game at market.
  Second, even if every German Jew was armed they still wouldn't have been able to stop the NAZI's. They had the police, military and their own paramilitary forces that were better armed and trained.
  Third, this doesn't strip anyone of any Constitutional rights. >

  They legit rolled over entire standing militaries in short order and these fucking inbred hillbillies practicing on stationary PBR cans here at home think they'd be able to do a goddamn thing to our military if they ever backed a despot. It's not 1776 and any fascist at the helm of U.S. forces wouldn't have them playing with kids gloves like we were in Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq. It'd be scorched Earth.
