Just this article I counted around 44 Million. You can argue about the numbers, but the point here is that disarmed citizens are vulnerable, and that there are many historical examples of disarmed citizens being killed and oppressed by their own government. The excuse given by authorities that they need to take guns away from citizens in order to lower crime rates is not supported by facts. Even if a government does not turn on its own citizens after disarming them, people are less safe – because unarmed citizens are easy targets to criminals. Over and over again, it has been clearly shown that taking guns away from citizens does not lead to a decrease in crime but rather a dramatic increase
Germany 1938, 13 million killed.
China 1935 over 20 million killed,
Russia 1929 Stalin: If the opposition disarms, well and good. If it refuses to disarm, we shall disarm it ourselves," he once said. 6-7 MILLION KILLED. Many starved to death.
Cambodia-1956 over 1 million killed.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, leaving a populace unable to defend itself against the Gestapo and SS. Hundreds of thousands died as a result.

Anyone truly interested in preventing mass murder should not be a supporter of gun control.
