Sure, Hitler.
That is funny. Let's keep everyone stupid, and let them have guns, and then we'll have full control of the world!
Don't tell me some skull-drudgery about how egalitarian Hitler was; he thought strict governmental controls on guns and massive propaganda programs, some of which were passed off as education in the kindergardens, would result in his Aryan Utopia. And most anti-gun types, either knowingly but ignoring the facts (not a first) or unwittingly, support a governmental policy that Hitler practiced. Delete the Second Amendment and what stops Big Brother from taking away other freedoms? Nothing; their is no rational reason for a government to maintain civil liberties once the citizen's right to rebel is removed.
Keep people stupid, hardly. If anything, the US needs a major education reform. But nobody is really serious about making real changes, because nobody knows what is even wrong in the first place. I honestly thing that the Brits, Germans and the Japanese have a better lay-out, separate the college-bound kids from the ones who would be better served with some sort of vocational training and educate along those two tracts. But we don't do that here and for no good reason. Watch, some hollow-head is going to defend the failing state of affairs with cries of "more money." That's the last thing you do; when you have an open, bleeding wound, the last thing you give the patient is blood thiners. If you do, they'll bleed out faster and die. If you simply throw money at a problem, it only creates more mess to clean up. While I'm on the rant, Keysian Economics do not work in times when the economy is relatively stable, all this pointless deficit spending must stop because their is no need for it. But the mass of sheeple don't see, the entrenched buereaucrats in DC refuse to see the truth that stares them square in the face, the Politicians are clueless about what exactly the problem is and those who see the bleedin' forest for the bleedin' trees are marked as some sort of fringe lunatic.
