Depending on where you live, if you pay taxes you probably already have, millions of them, for atrocities on a scale that make Kristallnacht look tame.
Millions is a exaggerating
https://www.quora.com/How-many-guns-does-the-US-military-own says around 3 per military member (this is just handheld firearms). That puts it at well over 3 million with more than a million military members.
olewhalehunter said "millions" in the context of a singular "you", which is the exaggeration. Of course, collectively, all the US tax payers have paid for millions of weapons.
As a Jew, I agree.
