  • The Nazi gun control argument is the claim that gun regulations in Nazi Germany helped facilitate the rise of the Nazis and the Holocaust. Historians and fact-checkers have characterized the argument as dubious or false, and point out that Jews were under 1% of the population and that it would be unrealistic for such a small population to defend themselves or overthrow the state even if they were armed. The argument is frequently employed by opponents of gun control in debates on U.S. gun politics, citing security against tyranny. Those against the argument most often call it an example of reductio ad Hitlerum. (en)
