Not so fast

Many of the things you are proposing is the same things enacted under Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and Pol Pot to disarm the millions of people they slaughtered and starved to death.
It is curious that in such a lengthy, pasty post you could not provide evidence for your concluding assertion.
I know a little bit about Pol Pot. Could you elucidate the policies with which he disarmed the (presumably) well-armed Cambodian people?
Also, I don't recall that most of the people who died at the hands of Stalin, Hitler, or Mao were ever armed.
Could you tell me more about that, too?

Your historical evidence is a link to a video?
