How about a a quick history lesson. A 1928 law that pre-dated the Nazi regime required people to seek state permission to buy or own a weapon and local police could revoke that permission at any time. In 1931, the law was amended to require people seeking that permission to prove they needed a weapon. In 1938, during Nazi rule, the law was changed so it was harder for Roma people to have guns and easier for Nazis to carry them. A separate decree in 1938 forbade Jews from having guns. All that said, most historians agree that the supposed Hitler quote used in a previous post is a fabrication.
