I saw a movie about govenments and weaponless people
Schindler’s List.
Makes you wonder how things might have progressed if the people were armed... specifically the Jews. At least they would be able to fight and probably die instead of being marched into the gas chambers. Better to die than to be herded like cattle. Added bonus — fewer German solders to fight the war, too.
The problem is that the gun grab progresses slowly and it happens almost imperceptibly. Then, at the very end, confiscation... after registration. At that point, few people have guns and the citizens have been conditioned and so it is easy.
