Ukrainian Association of Weapon Owners ^

If you want to be on this right wing, monarchy, paleolibertarianism and nationalism ping list, but are not, please let me know. If you are on it and want to be off, also let me know. This ping list is not used for Catholic-Protestant debates.

Ownership of guns in Ukraine: 6.6 per 100 people.
Ownership of guns in USA: 101 per 100 people.

I don't know how things will turn out for Ukraine, but in the US, when the flag goes up, I think we'll do OK.

The problem is each side sees the other side as “the criminal elements.” And, from each perspective, they’re right. This statement, unless there’s something I don’t understand that’s implied, says nothing.

I hope they got a lot of weapons and ammo into civilian hands when they their brief experiment with freedom. Maybe, they can preserve it.

Snipers taking out snipers...

Maybe, they can preserve it.

Live free or die!

A collection of videos, that purports to prove the use of live ammunition by the government forces:

I reproduce the photos directly:

Kalashnikov automatic rifles


Yellow armband are worn by the militia (i.e. government forces) and by hired "Titushki"


The titushki bandits with Internal Affairs Ministry bandits


Armed bandit with the yellow band, caught on car camera

Food for thought.

Ukraine has conscription, so most adult males have at least a degree of military training and experience, and its not like guns are hard to get hold of in Eastern Europe...

As usual, excellent photo reporting by Bilozerska:

Do you think they put a golf course in the new bunker under the White House?

Soros v. Putin. Difficult choice. And in the top picture, the only weapon I see being actually used is the Molotov.

Another, with artistic flair

This man is identified as a mathematician, fellow of Ukrainian Academy of sciences, with his son. Not exactly unemployed hooligans.

[annalex]

At least three are Kalashnikov rifles in #9 top, folding metal butt.

The choice is no longer about Soros, and probably never has been.

When I was a kid in 1st grade at St. Joesphat’s in Phila. they made us learn ukrainian for some reason. To this day I know not why.

Live free or die!
