Russia backs U.S. gun-control advocates

Despite the strictest gun control in the world, when I was in Russia I was offered a Makarov pistol for $50.00 and a full-auto AK-74 for $100.00. RPG-7's were also available for a little more.

Addresses and phone numbers...I need addresses and phone numbers! :)

Interestingly, when I was last headed for Great Britain, I enquired with a pal there about the possibility of picking up a handgun for use there. No problem he said.

The choices I had within my price range were a former East German Makarov complete with holster, extra magazine and ammo and a silencer, a 9mm Browning L9 military service pistol, or a .38 S&W revolver leftover from WWII.

BTW, the Russians have developed a full-auto version of the Makarov now. It's a little bulky, but looks promising.

Now, I ask you why would the Russians have an interest in how many guns are in circulation in the United States? It is true that mass private gunownership is our best defense against a tyrannical government--whichever government that might be. Has anyone seen the 7 part series Amerika broadcast in 1987? The movie depicts a victorious Russian/UN occupation of the US following a limited nuclear attack and nuclear blackmail of the US into surrender. These Russian statements come at a very interesting time--following President Bush's pledge to essentially eliminate anything that can be called a nuclear deterrent against Russian nuclear attack by unilaterally disarming our strategic nukes by 75% regardless of what Russia does.

Now we hear that the Russian Duma and the Russian General Staff may demand that Russia cease further nuclear missile and warhead reductions to compensate for the US announcement of imminent withdrawal from the ABM Treaty. Following the completion of the Bush unilateral nuclear disarmament reductionsn in 2011, Russia will outnumber the US in strategic nukes by over 3 to 1 and in total nukes by nearly 8 to 1 assuming the US does not also reduce its existing tactical nuclear stockpile which was largely eliminated by the traitorous Bill Clinton. With the US unable to deploy missile defenses prior to 2006 and with the continued existance of the massive Russian national ABM system consisting of 8500 SA-10 SAM/ABMs, the US will be under a window of vulnerability which the US may well exploit by a limited counterforce/decapitation nuclear first strike and/or nuclear blackmail to obtain concessions up to and/or including our surrender or the entire denuking of the United States by Russian inspectors. Under such a scenario, however remote, the Russians might have an interest in reducing the privately owned guns in the US to reduce the prospects of resistance to any forseeable limited Russian invasion and or presence in the US following a successful Russian nuclear blackmail scenario. Just a thought.

Don't ever think that the liberal commies will give up on getting our guns.

We may have won the battle, but our long war is never over.

They have the Public education system, universities, colleges, the Arts, and the Media.

They will continue to brainwash our young kids unless we oppose them at every turn!

Never ever let your guard down!

Russians still don't get the fact that if only the government has guns, people are controlled by government

Actually, many Russians get the fact that if only the government has guns, people are controlled by the government. Most of them used to work for the KGB.

Kennedy, Schumer ask Ashcroft to save gun purchase records while they work on legislation

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Two Democratic senators urged Attorney General John Ashcroft on Thursday to preserve gun purchase records that investigators want to review for any connection to the Sept. 11 hijackers.

The FBI has asked the Justice Department for access to those records, but the department has refused.

The information from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System is only kept by the federal government for 90 days. The three-month anniversary of the attacks was Tuesday.

"It is important to preserve all records that could assist in the investigation of the terrorist attacks," Sens. Charles Schumer of New York and Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts wrote Ashcroft. "To allow it to be destroyed may eliminate essential evidence that could tie individuals to terrorist activities."

Department spokeswoman Susan Dryden said, "We will review the letter and respond accordingly."

Schumer and Kennedy also asked Ashcroft to delay a plan that would retain the NICS records only until the next business day after a purchase, rather than for 90 days. Ashcroft announced in July he wanted to reduce the time government officials keep that data.

"Postponing this new policy for six months will give the administration the time it needs to review it in the context of the current war on terrorism," the senators said.

Ashcroft told the Senate Judiciary Committee last week that gun data from the background check system cannot be shared with investigative agencies and that Congress should change the law if that was a problem.

Schumer and Kennedy introduced a bill to allow the sharing of the data last week, and asked for Ashcroft's "speedy review and support for this legislation."

"For every day that the FBI is barred from using this information, the investigatory trail grows colder," they said.

Making a link between U.S. gun sales and "global instability," Moscow has lent its support to American gun-control advocates.

Nekulturnie duraki!

Protecting criminals from the law abiding is a must for death cultists, especialy those abounding in post Soviet Russia.

And that's another thing; here the gun-grabbers are whining about an alleged 9-11 advertising campaign, and this article is the first I've heard about it!
