Islamic Invasion Has Europeans Lamenting Lack Of Right To Bear Arms
Bearing Arms ^ | 10/27/2015 | Bob Owens

A World Net Daily article (is) claiming that fearful Europeans are making a run on their local gun stores in response to the flood of young, mostly male Muslim “refugees” that are flooding into Europe in what many see as nothing more or less than an invasion.

A Czech TV report confirms that long guns – shotguns and rifles – have been flying off the shelves in Austria, and Austrians who haven’t already purchased a gun may not have a chance to get one for some time. They’re all sold out.

And those arming themselves are primarily women.

“If anyone wants to buy a long gun in Austria right now, too bad for them,” the Czech newscaster says. “All of them are currently sold out.”

“We cannot complain about lack of demand,” Stephen Mayer, a gun merchant, told Trioler Tageszeitung.

He claims the stock has been sold out for the last three weeks and that demand is being fueled by fears generated by social changes.

“People want to protect themselves,” Mayer said. “Nonetheless, the most common purchasers of arms are primarily Austrian women.”

They are also buying pepper sprays, which Mayer said are in big demand among those who can’t get a gun.

Alan Gottlieb, executive vice president of the Second Amendment Foundation, said he recently returned from a gun rights event in Europe, where he sensed a change in attitude toward firearms.

“I just returned from a gun rights meeting in Belgium, and I can attest that all over Europe people now want the means to defend themselves,” Gottlieb told WND. “Self-defense is no longer a dirty word.

Thanks for letting me know. I remember her signing up and I read through her posts, but didn't see what you're referring to, so it or those posts must have been deleted.

Otherwise, I thought she contributed to our understanding and sounded "normal" to me.

As a general rule, people here seem to like it when someone wants to fight the evil that has the world by the short hairs and lament that the Euros don't seem to want to join that fight.

Then, when one does and she posts here, she gets the troll zot.

Thanks for the follow-up explanation. I'll watch my step.

Not to mention 350,000 or so Americans dying in Europe (or the Mediterranean theater) in the 20th century, plus the War of 1812 (one of the theaters of the Napoleonic Wars), and the British and French meddling in the US Civil War.
