Maybe he should start there?
The country that disarmed the Jews in the 1930’s has thoughts on gun ownership relating to freedom.
It’s a bad opinion and you’re finding out why.

At least he knows what he’s in for:
Because of this tweet I will get a lot of bad comments again
— Sidney W.🇩🇪🇺🇲🇺🇦 (@wahlstedt007) May 22, 2022
And, as a German, he should know that the word that describes our dunking is schadenfreude, the “pleasure derived by someone from another person’s misfortune.”
