As I mentioned 1 calendar month ago, 0.775 1 M m out of 10.5 million people receive got certificates or licenses to grip guns. Each recipient of the certificates or licenses is carefully tested inwards a organization that is analogous to driving licenses, meet Gun politics inwards Czechia.
Tomorrow, the European Union ministers of interior volition get together inwards Grand Duchy of Luxembourg together with verbalize over a novel proposal penned past times the Dutch European Union presidency to disarm the Europeans. In particular, most of semi-automatic guns are supposed to live completely banned together with liquidated – with no exceptions allowed. The excuse for this policy are the terrorist attacks inwards Paris etc.
Virtually all Czech experts together with politicians across the political spectrum (not to advert 40,000 signatories of a petition) concur that this justification of the proposed conception is utterly idiotic because the terrorists aren't acquiring legal weapons for their malicious acts. They exercise the illegal ones! On the contrary, terrorists would receive got easier weather condition if no peaceful people volition live able to seem upward them. The interior government minister Milan Chovanec, a one-time social democratic governor of the Pilsner region, has been ordered past times the regime to veto all major proposals to abuse the European Union to harass innocent gun owners.
The Czech ministers together with lawmakers are convinced – together with desire to convince the residuum of Europe or the basis – that Czech Republic should live considered the ultimate exercise model inwards the right approach to guns. It simply happens taht Czech Republic volition live the most unequivocal opponent of the proposed bans. It's non then surprising. In our country, the ban would threaten 300,000-400,000 legally held weapons!
You should realize that it is an astonishingly high number.
H5N1 large bulk of these gun owners would in all probability choke large enemies of the European Union (if they're non large enemies yet). It could also live the instance for a few menage unit of measurement members together with friends of each gun owner. It seems sensible to tell that such an unwise policy could create a 1 M m of new, genuinely visceral haters of the European Union inwards Czech Republic – including gamekeepers, sport shooters, owners of collections, museums, people who possess arms for their defense, together with also people working inwards the production of guns: most 20,000 jobs would live forthwith threatened past times the orders to disarm simply inwards Czechia. The exclusively other similarly "big disarming of the public" inwards the Czech history took identify right afterwards the Nazi draw inwards 1939. Is the European Union happy to live inwards this company?
While Czech Republic is the staunchest opponent of the policy, it's expected that the residuum of the Visegrád Group (Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, together with Czechia) volition also oppose the planned draconian gun control, along with Republic of Austria together with Republic of Finland (and perchance the Baltic countries). On the other hand, it seems almost certainly that France, Belgium, together with Italy volition back upward the regulation. The mental attitude of other countries is unknown to the Czech media.
Minister Chovanec said that
we [the Czech government] aren't afraid of our ain citizens. We are non frightened past times the people who grip guns inwards understanding with the police pull together with who fulfill all of their duties.It seems rather clear that certainly politicians inwards the residuum of Europe, peculiarly inwards Western Europe, couldn't tell the same sentence. Either these people are actually clueless together with don't sympathize the departure betwixt legal together with illegal guns together with their holders; or they deliberately desire to disarm the population of Europe then that it becomes easier to command or occupy the countries.
The 1420 battle of the Vítkov Hill inwards Prague. That's when "pistols" together with "howitzers" were born. It was 1 of the famous battles inwards which the Hussite Czech protestants – with their somewhat pocket-sized rural outfits, flags with the chalice, weapons simultaneously used equally agricultural tools, partly woman somebody staff, together with greatly outnumbered – totally humiliated 100,000-200,000 of their Catholic crusader foes led past times Sigismund, a High German boy of the famous Czech manly somebody monarch Charles IV. The Hussite fame lasted upward to 1434 when they lost the critical concluding Battle of Lipany. The guy without 1 inwardness is the de facto full general January Žižka. The suburb nether the Vítkov Hill is at nowadays known equally Žižkov, afterwards him.
I personally intend that the most oft right explanation of this idiotic proposal is the political correctness that has run amok. The people proposing these harmful policies desire to pretend that they're non capable of distinguishing an Arab terrorist from a law-abiding Caucasian gun owner. So they intend it's a wonderful thought to punish the latter for the crimes of the former!
Already 1,200 amendments of the pecker receive got been filed that volition receive got to live debated inwards the European Parliament – which is why the tomorrow's vote of the European Union fellow member province ministers won't live the in conclusion word. This huge discover is often mentioned equally some other slice of evidence showing that the draft is 1 of a real depression quality. The government minister together with others indicate out that the rule was written past times an amateur together with uses nonsensical together with ambiguous phrases together with concepts such equally "similar weapons".
If the misguided policy is approved, the Czech ministry building volition endeavor to minimize the lawsuit on our homeland. The kickoff footstep volition live endeavor difficult non to implement it at all, the government minister said. My thought is to brand the guns "officially illegal" together with rename the pecker most the legally held weapons to a "law most illegally held weapons". So these weapons would live renamed equally "illegal ones" but they would soundless follow the same laws equally today. They could also live confiscated but they would live returned dorsum for CZK 1 etc. And the idiots inwards the European Union could live asked to lick their rectum.
Lawmaker Roman Váňa mentioned some other clever solution adopted inwards Finland. Legal owners of some weapons were formally affiliated with the basis forces equally "reserves" which made it OK for them to grip the guns.
Update, result
The Fri negotiations ended upward with a resultant that is much worse than expected past times our media: Czech Republic was the only province that institute the proposed pecker unacceptably tough relatively to the gun owners. Three countries voted against the proposal – but Poland together with Grand Duchy of Luxembourg did then because it wasn't harsh enough! Some other sources soundless claim that Poland's put was simply about Czechia.
This is simply 1 item policy but it may live plenty to meet that nosotros don't belong to that spousal human relationship – or that the spousal human relationship doesn't deserve us, whatever is your perspective.
Slovakia's interior government minister said that he understood the Czech sentiment together with it was right but Slovakia is obliged to vote "Yes" because it volition laid about the European Union presidency inwards 3 weeks – what a reason!
Today inwards the morning, folks inwards Prague were witnesses of the fact that inwards our homeland, the unsafe people often exercise real dissimilar tools than legal guns – together with sometimes comical ones – to threaten the public. H5N1 semi-naked unusual nutcase has climbed to the roof of the semi-abandoned National Theater Warehouse inwards the Viničná [Vineyard] Street inwards Prague two (downtown – that's just the street where Einstein worked at the High German University inwards the 1910s) together with was throwing bricks together with rocks at the pedestrians.
He hasn't hitting anyone yet. I am with those who were surprised why this private hasn't been removed from the roof quickly. Couldn't they post a special unit of measurement with a helicopter?
The identify is real simply about the oldest edifice of my Alma Mater, Faculty of Mathematics together with Physics of the Charles University; to a psychiatric asylum; together with to the diplomatic mission of Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (where the gun command volition live discussed tomorrow).
