I hope you will post references to back up your theory, as I did for mine. And congratulations for using Godwin's Law as a "substitute race card" when all else was failing.

Ha!
majictoy, you wanted links to help your understanding of Hitler's rise to power, these too are from wikipedia. The event I was thinking of was the
Beer Hall Putsch - which, though it failed in the short term (sending Hitler to prison) it managed very well to display his later methods, which after forming part of the coalition government, he unleashed on the
Night of The Long Knives (Where despite the name, the para-militaries involved, predominately used guns) to effectively sieze control of power, destroy his dissenters and successfully intimidate any remaining political opponents into silence.
But as willravel said - please don't threadjack - your points were slapped down because they were poorly formed (there was no gun-control in place, so the Jews were able to arm themselves anyway) and factually incorrect, not to mention irrelevant to the conversation in hand.
