"Until we see a major movement on the left to amend the Constitution and repeal the Second Amendment, we should assume these political voices aren’t actually serious about the gun bans for which they advocate. And if the left does start an honest movement to repeal and replace the Second Amendment; well, this is still America. Good luck with that!"
Mr. DeVito waited until his last 3 sentences to make His point, but He finally did. The 2nd protects American's right "To Keep and Bear...", The only way that will change is a Constitutional Convention. Until that time, any Gun control legislation is UnConstitutional, and should, and is being turned back by the American Judicial system one case at a time. Do not be confused by the Left's rhetoric, the Courts are not adding or implementing Rights when they shoot down a gun control law, they are merely upholding the wording and meaning of the 2nd Amendment.
I had been thinking on this topic this morning, as I was reading the daily news, and am glad to have found this article, Opinion piece.

MSG Stan Hutchison - You tell me where I go wrong.
1) The Weimar Republic was in power in Germany BEFORE the Nazis came to power.
2) Under the Weimar Republic,
-There were strict firearm control laws.
-Very few Germans owned firearms.
-Those that did own firearms, were required to register them with the government.
-Many of the most common calibers of rifles, shotguns and pistols were required to be kept in police armories or sporting clubs.
-Firearms stored in those armories and sporting clubs could not be signed out without prior authorization. Records of sign-in and sign-out were kept.
3) When the Nazis came to power, the loosening of the firearms regulations applied ONLY to members of the military and the NAZI party.
4) The firearm registries were used to disarm those Germans who were not members of the military or the Nazi party, particularly political opponents. Armed Jews, homosexuals, communists, Slavic minorities and gypsies were not present and well-organized in large enough numbers to pose more than a symbolic threat when the Nazi's came to power.
If I'm not wrong, what is your point?
The 2nd Amendment does not exist to protect us from the government we have now, unless and until that government, or ANY OTHER force becomes an enemy of the free state. Had the population of pre-Nazi Germany been armed and their rights protected by something akin to the 2nd amendment, perhaps the Nazi takeover and thus WWII would have been still born. But we will never know, will we?

Maj John Bell - I can agree with your supposition, though there was not enough opposition to the Nazis to prevent them doing as they wished. Most Germans at the time were more concerned with their own private lives, the economy, and political stability, and would not have envisioned what the Nazis would do.
The Jews were less than 0.75% of the German population, an insufficient number to have withstood the Nazis even with firearms.
My point on this is all the propaganda using the Nazis as a reason for an armed population is misleading at a minimum.
