Would it? I've already said It wouldn't have stopped the Holocaust, but that doesn't mean it would have been the same. Things might have been different if Germany had started slaughtering Jews in the streets in 1933. More might have been motivated to try to get out early. The US might not have turned away ship loads of Jewish refugees and sent them back to Europe to die. More could have lived. Less could have died. We don't know if it would have been the same or not.

Small yes, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a good thing for the thousands that did live due to the actions of armed partizans.
Quote:And then proceeded to massacre populations themselves
I never claimed the Russians were saints. Only that they stopped the Germans. Even then not without a good deal of help. It seems a pretty safe bet it would have been the same and the partisan impact was minimal this sounds like grasping .

If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.

We've already got waiting periods and accredited safety course requirements, as well as private sale restrictions, they're just not uniform, or uniformly enforced.

I was unaware of that. I've been under the impression that you could walk into a WalMart, put down your money and walk out with a shotgun. No?

Depends on the state. Also depends on whether or not you have a criminal record... and even if you don't have a criminal record sometimes you are given a waiting period. I get delayed every time I buy a firearm, even though I have friends who have walked in and instantly bought one.

Boru You CANNOT just walk into Walmart - or any other FFL dealer - simply pay cash and walk out with a gun IN ANY STATE.
You MUST fill out a 4473 and pass a NICS check. In some states a concealed pistol permit, which has a more extensive background check than NICS, substitutes as the NICS check.
If your NICS check commes back negative - you aint getting a gun.
0
If your NICS check bounces every time - blame computers.
You probably have a fairly common name - and someone with the same name is a criminal.
You can apply for a special ID number through NICS - which you use with future purchases - and the NICS won' t bounce on you anymore.
