The European Parliament has voted to tighten laws on obtaining and possessing firearms.
The age at which a firearm can be bought or owned will be raised to 18, unless it is for hunting or target shooting under adult supervision.
Blank-firing guns that could be converted will also be made illegal.
Earlier this month, a student shot dead eight people at a school in Finland, where gun ownership is among the highest in the world.
EU governments are expected to approve the reforms by the end of the year and the directive is due to come into force in January 2008.
Member states will then have two years to put the changes into practice.
- THIS IS HORRIBLE LEGISLATION - A FASCIST POWER-GRAB AKIN TO WHAT CHAVEZ IS DOING IN VENEZUELA. (AND DON'T GIVE ME ANY OF THAT "IT CAN'T BE FASCIST BECAUSE IT'S COMING FROM THE LEFT!" CRAP. FASCISM IS A LEFTIST/STATIST CREED JUST LIKE ITS COUSINS NAZISM AND COMMUNISM.)
- FACT: FINLAND HAS AMONG THE HIGHEST GUN OWNERSHIP RATES AND THE LOWEST GUN CRIME RATES IN THE EU.
- IN FACT, MANY NATIONS WITH HIGH GUN OWNERSHIP RATES HAVE LOW CRIME RATES.
- BY PASSING THIS LAW, THE EUSSR IS ENCROACHING ON THE HUMAN RIGHTS OF EUROPEANS.
- AND DIMINISHING THEIR RIGHTS AS CITIZENS OF SOVEREIGN NATIONS.
- THIS EUSSR POLICY DOVETAILS NICELY WITH THE UN'S ANTI-GUN POLICES.
- THAT'S NO ACCDIENT OR MERE COINCIDENCE: DISARMING ORDINARY, LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS - AND MAKING EVERYONE DEPENDENT ON THE SATE FOR THEIR DEFENSE IS A MAJOR GOAL OF THE LEFT. ALWAYS HAS BEEN.
DON'T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT!
BUY A GUN - THE LIFE YOU SAVE MAY BE YOUR OWN!
THE RIGHTS YOU PROTECT MOST CERTAINLY WILL BE YOUR OWN.
