“Give us your weapons – Give us your freedom”

This is how I could describe situation in EU these days.

Yes.

Terrorist attacks in Paris on November 13th are a huge tragedy.

Over hundred people killed.

Hundreds of wounded.

Terrorists with AKs and explosives.

The biggest mass murder in Europe since WWII.

This is the thing we cannot take back. But what we can do against those action to repeat again?

Well, that is the question.

But it is the question which everyone is looking for the answer to.

And when people are looking for answers, they first look towards European Parliament (EP) and European Commission (EC). Why? Because we are in the EU!

In situation like this, EP and EC must act. And they must act quickly.

But what can we expect from organizations which can only define “how an average banana has to be shaped, to be sold in EU”? Hell yeah! You cannot expect something reasonable.

So, let me tell you how EC thinks.

“Terrosists have weapons!”

“We will restrict weapons!”

“OK, job done!”

So, you might say that in normal world somebody had to tell:

“Hey! Terrorists have illegal firearms. How can we controll them?”
and someone other:

“Yeah. That is the point. We will activate our secret services and fight against weapon smuglers!”

But we are in EU.

There are no such people.

What will EC do?

On 13th, there were the attacks.

On 18th they have a solution to this problem in form of global restrictions of weapons across the whole EU.

I can only ask myself. “How could they come up with this so fast?”. Then I answer myself too. “Those bastards had it already prepared and only waited for good opportunity to strike!”

I am not a big fan of United States.

Really, I am not.

But some quotes from former American leaders are worth remembering. For example:

“No free man shall be deprived of the use of arms.”

Thomas Jefferson

The EU wants us to give them our weapons. For now they will take only:

– guns which were deactivated from army guns (e.g.: full auto assult rifles). Those cannot shoot any more and if you try to bring them back to life, you will end up in hospital, for sure.

– guns which looks like army guns, or were converted from army guns (semiautomatic rebuilds of army guns like AK 47, SA VZ 58, AR 15)

OK. Some people could give up on their semiautomatic civilian versions of VZ 58 (Czech weapon using the same ammunition as AK 47. Looks a little bit like AK 47, but it is a different system).

Some of us not (including me).

I am the proud owner of a firearm licence and few guns.

Why proud?

It is quite hard to get to firearm licence in our country. AND I think that the right to bear arms is the basic sign of a free country.

Without the option of bearing arms, we would be slaves.

And that it exactly what the EU want us to be!

They know that when they restrict legal firearms, terrorists will always find their way to illegal ones.

And that they  will not hesitate to use them.

What will disarmed, law obeying men do, when the terrorists come to his house with the desire to kill?

He might only say “You cannot do it. It is against the law!”

But that is exactly what terrorists do!!!

They fuck the law!

But, the average person obeys it…

…so we will have a bunch of toothless people against well armed terrorists, who will have illegal firearms.

Thank you!

I want my freedom!

I want to have my guns!

I want to care about my own security!

Especially when the EU cannot secure it.

And no! I do not want to be a slave of the EU!
