"Cambodia established gun control in 1956. >From 1975 to 1977, one million 'educated' people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated." Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: approximately 56 million. The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, ask them "Who do YOU want to round up and exterminate?" With guns, we are citizens. Without them, we are subjects. Why would we regress to the oppression and slavery that our forefathers fought to get out from under? Why can't humans LEARN, from the past? Why do humans tend for extremism and not moderation? Send this out to ten people and you will be protecting yourself and others. Ignore this and do nothing.... and in the possible near future you will be rounded up and exterminated.
