Im pretty sure Europe at that time was more concerned with keeping their butt in the corner than rounding up global support for the extermination that was happening in Germany. The Jews, regardless of whether or not they were armed, wouldnt have lost one iota of victim status as their entire race was targeted based on nothing more than blind discrimination and hate. How would fighting back make them any less of a victim?

How does this have anything to do with the validity of being able to fight certain death giventhe chance to do so with a firearm? Do you think the Jews facing the gas chamber/group furnace cared about their popularity in Europe?

Give me one example of gov't led, systematic genocide against a different, specific race where said gov't had no gun control laws. Noone is trying to revise history, people are pointing out that the universally recognized man of upmost evil in human history pioneered gun control.
