[...] They were elements of disorder and subversion. On the morrow of each conflict I gave the categorical order to confiscate the largest possible number of weapons of every sort and kind. This confiscation, which continues with the utmost energy, has given satisfactory results.” ~ Benito Mussolini (1883-1945) Italian dictator during WW2, founder of Italian Fascism, 'Il Duce'Source: Speech delivered by Prime Minister Benito Mussolini before the Italian Senate, June 8, 1923.
