French wanted even harsher conditions. The Brits and Americans were less demanding but compromised with the French.

i'm not gonna research that, as far as i remember, the french wanted also an independant state between france and germany.. whatev, that treaty was just basic humiliation, and yes it had a role in WW2, nobody denies that. Now you should understand that 1,7 million french died in that war, without even counting the damage to the land and industries. It's hard after that to just shake hands and forget all about it.
Tecmos: If you agree that a blind man not being able to get a driver's license is not discrimination, you agree him not being able to get an actual firearm isn't either. The moment you recognize that a firearm is not like "a pair of goggles" to use your example, you agree that certain rules apply to that kind of object. Just like there's rules applying to cars, nukes, M1A1 abrams tanks, etc etc.
I get your "hey i'm a law abiding citizen" argument. I get it. Being a law abiding citizen doesn't mean you get to drive a M1A1 tank on the road to work every day, because that right would be considered a liability to the general safety of the public.. which is exactly the same for firearms. Agree with me or not, but the numbers don't lie: the usa is the only country in the western world with so many gun-related homicides !
