After Terrorism And Sex Assaults,
EU Cracks Down On Firearms Ownership
By Donna Rachel Edmunds. January 11th, 2016
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 ........ 
A classic "excuse" approach to introducing (even) more gun control in Europe. Gun laws are already pretty tight in most EU countries and now - yes - even some de-activated guns it seems are to be on the chopping block. This kind of ridiculous proposal should make everyone realize even more, just how much we have to protect our Second Amendment in the U.S.A. or we can be at risk for the same fate.
