I firmly believe that James
Madison, the Father of the Bill of Rights, along with the
rest of the Founding Fathers inserted the last
four words into the 2nd Amendment for a purpose. As your Ohio
Senator, I will not support any further such infringements. I
will pledge to fight to retain and restore the rights of law
abiding gun owners for the purpose of collecting, sport targets, hunting,
and self defense. |

In Germany, they came
first for the communists, and I didn't speak up
because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the
Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists but I didn't
speak up because I was not a trade unionist. Then
they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up
because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me,
and by that time nobody was left to speak up. -
Martin Niemoeller, Dachau, 1944

| According to a recent report for
Congress on foreign country gun laws states, "From
available statistics, among the [27] countries surveyed,
it is difficult to find a correlation between the
existence of strict firearms regulations and a lower
incidence of gun-related crimes. In Canada a dramatic
increase in the percentage of handguns used in all
homicides was reported during a period in which handguns
were most strictly regulated. And in strictly regulated
Germany, gun-related crime is much higher than in
countries such as Switzerland and Israel, that have
simpler and/or less restrictive legislation." (Library
of Congress, "Firearms Regulations in Various Foreign
Countries, May 1998") |
Violent Crime |
| Three out of four
violent crimes committed in the U.S. do not involve
firearms. Since 1991, the number of privately owned
firearms in the U.S. has increased between 65-70
million, and the nation's murder rate has decreased 43%.

After invading, Nazis used pre-war lists of gun
owners to confiscate firearms and many gun owners simply
disappeared. Following confiscation, the Nazis were free
to wreak their evil on the disarmed populace, such as on
these helpless Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto. |
History shows that after Hitler obtained control of Socialistic Germany,
he not only had Jews killed, but
his own soldiers, homosexuals, and any other group that
he became intolerant to or paranoid of.

 The
Right To Keep and Bear Arms...The True Face of Gun Control
The Mass Extermination of Humans in the 20th Century
and even Today
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to
1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend
themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
 In
1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From
1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to
defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. By
1987 that figure had risen to 61,911,000.
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952
10,076,000 political dissidents, unable to defend
themselves, were rounded up and exterminated in
Kuomintang China, and by 1987 another 35,236,000
exterminations were carried out under the Communists.
Germany established gun control1
in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, 13 million Jews and
others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded
up and exterminated.
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to
1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, without the means to defend
themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to
1979 under General Idi Amin Dada, 300,000 Christians and
political rivals of Amin2,
unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and
exterminated.
Cambodia established gun control in 1956. Between 1975
and 19793, 2,035,000 "educated"
people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and
exterminated.
In a March 1976 coup in Argentina, a military
junta seized power and went on a campaign to
wipe out left-wing terrorism with terror far worse than
the one they were combating. For seven years thousands
of people, most of them dissidents and innocent
civilians unconnected with terrorism, were arrested and
then vanished without a trace, the Argentinian service
chief's version of Hitler's Nacht und Nebel
directive. After democracy was restored in 1983, a
national commission was appointed to investigate the
fate of "los desaparecidos." That report
revealed the systematic abductions of men women and
children and the methodic use of torture and murder.
Human rights groups say up to 30,000 people4
were killed or "disappeared" as the military waged its
campaign against a disarmed citizenry.
The United Nations imposed gun control after civil
war broke out in Bosnia-Herzegovina in 1992.
Although the town of Srebrenica was a UN-designated
"safe area," in July of 1995 more than 7,000 unarmed
Muslim men and boys were murdered by Serb forces as
the UN forces in the town proved unable or unwilling
to help its Muslim population.
Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the
20th Century because of gun control: at least 56 million5...
that we know about. The places are all too familiar:
Stalin's Russia, Nazi Germany, Communist China, Uganda,
Rwanda, Guatemala, Cambodia, Armenia, The Sudan, Bosnia
and many more.

"There is no doubt in my mind that millions of lives could have
been saved if the people were not 'brainwashed' about gun
ownership and had been well armed. Hitler's thugs and goons were
not very brave when con-fronted by a gun. Gun haters always want
to forget the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, which is a perfect example
of how a ragtag, half starved group of Jews took up 10 handguns
and made asses out of the Nazis."
- Theodore Haas,
survivor of Dachau

First we will kill all the subversives, then we will kill their
collaborators, then their sympathizers, then those who remain
indifferent and finally the indecisive.
