And more lunacy from Ben Carson, Clown Prince of the Republican moronocracy:

"I think the likelihood of Hitler being able to accomplish his goals would have been greatly diminished if the people had been armed," Carson said. "I'm telling you there is a reason these dictatorial people take guns first."

The comments drew a swift response from the Anti-Defamation League. "Ben Carson has a right to his views on gun control, but the notion that Hitler's gun-control policy contributed to the Holocaust is historically inaccurate," said Jonathan Greenblatt, National Director of the organization".

[NOTE: Hitler actually relaxed controls on firearms.]
