saw this and wanted to share-
The Jewish people have been historically oppressed and in ancient times, weapons were seen as the great equalizer, just like today. You can't make slaves and lessor citizens out of people who are able to defend themselves.
You can see a glimpse of this in 1 Samuel 13:19-20...
19 Not a blacksmith could be found in the whole land of Israel, because the Philistines had said, "Otherwise the Hebrews will make swords or spears!" 20 So all Israel went down to the Philistines to have their plow points, mattocks, axes and sickles sharpened.
You will note that the Philistines were the evil and oppressive people and refused the Israelites access to weapons. They even banned the ancient version of the gun store to prevent the Israelites from having access to weapons.
Just like the modern version of those who seek to keep weapons away from people; it is for control and enslavement.
