Perhaps it is due to our facts which we presented last Wednesday in Brussels and which were not spread by media at all – even when we made a paid press release<\/a>. It seems no journalist or online magazin forwarded this information, even when it got 1 million views.<\/p>\n We came to know that Commission and the Ministries of the Interior of FR, DE and IT are pressuring Parliament to accept their ban proposal by the end of this year.<\/p>\n They want to ban magazines and semi-automatic rifles: Read more<\/a><\/p>\n INFOMATERIAL & ADDRESSES:<\/p>\n Zip-file in English: Link<\/a>\u00a0or arguments only<\/a><\/p>\n Zip-file in German: Link<\/a>\u00a0oder nur die Argumente<\/a><\/p>\n XLS with emails: Link<\/a><\/p>\n Under the links above, we have prepared for you a help for arguments, a list of emails of the MEPs and a draft for serial emails in word.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n BRUSSELS<\/span>, November 22, 2016<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —<\/p>\n European Parliament, Brussels<\/span>, 16 Nov 2016<\/span><\/p>\n Over 200 stakeholders attending the FIREARMS UNITED conference hosted by political groups EPP, ECR and ALDE supported the speakers’ calls for the outright rejection of the EC proposal.<\/p>\n Prompted by the EC’s failure to produce an impact assessment, FU founder Katja Triebel<\/span> tabled her own study and laid bare the EC’s inaccurate statistics and wrong conclusions. Sport shooters’ and firearm collectors’ representatives emphasized the negative impact that the proposal would have on their legitimate activity and on heritage. Expressing their own misgivings, co-chairs Stefano Maullu (EPP), Bernd K\u00f6lmel (ECR), Jussi Halla-Aho<\/span> (ECR) and Dita Charanzova (ALDE) vowed to protect legal owners.<\/p>\n The EC’s ill-conceived proposal has stirred up anti-EU sentiment among over 200 million legal firearm owners, further adding to the EU’s waning popularity in Member States and the Schengen area in general. A speaker who is a deputy in the Swiss Federal parliament stated that his countrymen who live in a country that has one of the world’s highest firearm ownership figures and the lowest violent crime rates, will not accept the imposition of additional EU firearm rules. Failing a parliamentary vote to reject the proposal, a binding referendum with a “Swixit” result is highly likely.<\/p>\n “The European Commission is pushing to introduce their Directive despite all available data showing conclusively that it will achieve nothing in terms of combating terrorism, lowering the homicide rate or preventing massacres. In reality it will just serve to alienate law-abiding citizens even further and divert important resources away from the fight against illegal arms trafficking,” concluded Tomasz St\u0119pie\u0144, President of Firearms United.<\/p>\n CONTACT: The European Commission has so far failed to support the EU Gun Ban plans with an impact assessment \u2013 most likely because carrying on an impact assessment would cripple the gun ban plans, as its outcomes would seriously contradict the anti-gun agenda. Two members of the first panel brought on their own evaluation, with facts and figures, that were the true centerpieces of the event.<\/p>\n Read more: Link<\/a><\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Vabandame, see kanne on saadaval ainult %LANG : ja %.
