Original Note:
The tweet implies a false claim alleging gun ownership was restricted to pave the way for the Holocaust. The historical facts on the record contradict this false statement of fact. The German Weapons Act of 1938 deregulated long guns & ammunition & sales of rifles & shotguns. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_control_in_Germany#The_1938_German_Weapons_Act
