Did I say that they should have just rolled over and died? No... but that is still what would have happened in all likelihood.

If they were facing an armed uprising, do you really think the SS would have just gone door-to-door without tanks and larger weapons? You can't change one variable without realizing that others that would change as result. If the Jews were armed, they just would gotten more extreme.

If you think that the Jews stood no chance either way, then why would Hitler impose a gun registry on German citizens?

Probably the same reason the U.S. has innitiated gun control in Iraq. Guns in civilian populations don't always make for peaceful situations. It's a tactical decision... do you diagree with gun control in Iraq? I'm guessing it's not the concept of gun control that bothers you, but where and when?
