Most of the African countries have little or no gun control. Even more widespread availability of weapons is highly unlikely to have stemmed the genocide their either.
Gyspies, intellectuals, others not sympathetic with the Nazis, etc. As for alighting to guns don't make a difference - that's so wrong I can't even begin to argue that point even on a psychological level.

I'll say this: if the Jews had been armed, the Nazis wouldn't have gotten the thorough ass-kicking received at the hands of The Allied forces - it might have stopped long before the ghettos were established and the ovens turned on.

A threatened man is a very, very powerful force to be reckoned with.
