EU Gun Control: After Terrorism And Sex Assaults, European Union Cracks Down On Firearms Ownership

Gun collectors could be forced to apply for a licence and undergo background checks even if they only own deactivated weapons if European Union (EU) officials get their way. Critics have called the proposed legislation "excessive," and have accused the EU of harassing responsible gun owners.

EU officials have deemed the last round of regulations, introduced in 2008, to be inadequate, claiming that they leave Europe "vulnerable to criminal activity." European leaders have agreed, vowing in the wake of the Paris attacks to "rapidly examine" the new proposals with the intention of approving them at a summit in February. The new laws would then come into effect in July, The Local has reported.

Among other measures, the draft law will ban the ownership of all Category A firearms throughout the European Member States, even when such guns are deactivated. Only museums which are approved by the government would be able to own such weapons, while all other collectors would have to give them up.

WOW! That's simply awesome. Especially with the shadow of maybe 10 MILLION new residents. Don't want to offend them by someone being able to protect themselves. That's for the government to do. Just ask the hundreds of German ladies how that worked out for them on NYE. Oh, yeah. Quit dressing so provocatively and you'll be fine.

The powers that be in Europe seem to know that they will not be unscathed in the coming rebellion against the hijra.

The EU should have been collapsed years ago. The best thing for Europeans would be to get rid of the EU.

This is what happens when you surrender your sovereignty to globalists.

The Elites need to completely disarm the public now before things get out of hand and their rule is put in peril.

This is why the United States Air Force needs to resume dropping millions of these FP-45 "Liberators" over socialist occupied Europe.

It is a natural right of man to be armed, and it is tyranny to disarm people. It is a violation of human rights.

The people need to be armed. It is the tyrannical Socialists governments of Europe that need to be disarmed. Let freedom ring!

I have no desire to visit Europe again, ever.

Disarm citizens and let Refujihadis run riot. Madness!

Hope the Poles and Hungarians (and Swiss) aren’t part of this.

Unarmed and there can be no rebellion against anything. They need to roll while they can and maybe that is not a bad idea for us.

Governments are the same around the world. When bad guys use fully automatic guns to commit crimes, bureaucrats look around and start taking bolt action hunting rifles away from law abiding citizens, because it’s “doing something.”

They never dropped them the first time. Most of them languished in a warehouse until after the war, then were dumped into the ocean.

You can always count on Libs to make the worst possible choices.
Calls for gun control for every crisis, it's automatic.
Commies don't want an armed populace, it stands in the way of their Revolution.

That is unfortunately correct. A decorated jewish french resistance spy personally told our group that unfortunately, none of these Liberator weapons made it into the hands of their resistance groups. She said she sure the hell wish they had, as they would have saved the lives of many resistance spies and fighters.
