German Party wants the right to arm themselves
Last month, a man of Iranian heritage killed nine people in Munich with guns that he had bought illegally on the “darknet” – where most of the terrorists in Europe get their guns. In response to that attack on Germans, like many Leftist governments, German legislators have largely supported tightening firearm ownership on legal gun owners.
The German political party Alternative for Germany (AfD), however, is asking for looser regulations so that Germans are able to protect themselves, according to Russia Today;
“Many people are increasingly feeling unsafe. Every law-abiding citizen should be in a position to defend themselves, their family and their friends,” [Frauke Petry, who is the head of the anti-immigrant party] said. “We all know how long it takes until the police can get to the scene, especially in sparsely populated places,” she added.
According to the politician, her party is currently the only force opposing tougher gun laws in Germany.
“This would affect the law-abiding citizens – and not those who get their weapons from the darknet,” Petry said. She also slammed the current gun law debate as essentially portraying “legal gun possession as something more scandalous than those illegally having weapons.”
Petry is equally worried about the fact that the German police have witnessed massive budget and personnel cuts over the past years, while cross-border crime has skyrocketed.
It seems to me that any rational person would admit that taking more guns from the law-abiding citizenry would be playing into the hands of terrorists, but then legislators aren’t rational people.

Yeah, if Gun Control Laws REALLY prevented crime like libtards claim, places like Chicago, DC, NJ and Mexico would be like Mayberry, but since when have libtards paid even the tiniest bit of attention to facts, common sense and logic?
If Germany actually relaxes the laws against law-abiding gun owners, the screams from the Progressives over here will be at a pitch only dogs can hear.
Oh, I can NOT believe you used ‘rational’ twice in one sentence, especially when it’s related to GUNNZZZ!
You expect rational thought from lefties and libretards?
Meanwhile, in Phoenix, 7-11 clerks are being allegedly killed by perps wielding “submachine guns”… according to the police.

‘submachine gun’???
Isn’t that commonly referred to as ‘the pig’, or something like that?
If so, it’s military hardware, so where did this asswipe get his hands on it?
The video appeared to show the asswipe armed with a Tech 9. I doubt it was a “machine gun”.
“The pig” was a nick-name given to machine guns carried by infantrymen. Unless you were proud to be a machine-gunner, carrying this as your primary weapon was pretty onerous. In Ranger school no one looked forward to his (now I guess his or her) turn to carry “the pig,” because it (M-60) weighed about 23 pounds. A true submachine gun only weighs about half that or less, even with a full magazine.
Thank you for the heads up on that subject, RGR769.
In view of no actual statement released by the local law enforcement, it’s most likely that the use of ‘submachine’ came from the reporter, and nobody else.
EX-PH2, an SMG is an automatic weapon that fires pistol-type ammunition. A SMG has less muzzle velocity and isnt as accurate at longer range.
OMG !!!
The sound you hear off in the distance isn’t cannons going off, it’s the sound of liberal heads exploding when they read the s news coming from their liberal utopia of communist ruled European city states !!!
I seem to recall Germany is one of their holy lands because they’re so multicultural and education is free.
For anyone who is interested in moving to Europe, I believe the Swiss require that you are weapons-savvy and own one. They also require, if you want to be a Swiss citizen, that you become part of the Swiss culture, e.g., know your neighbors and your town quite well, speak German, French or Italian, and aren’t there to just take advantage of the bennies of Swiss life. No free cheese, in other words.
I have no problem with any of that. And the landscape is quite beautiful, too. Very photogenic.
But expecting Little Brown People to adapt to another culture? Das Raysis!
However, the Swiss don’t play around. You don’t want to assimilate, you don’t get your citizenship approved.
I went to Switzerland for a conference a couple of years ago, met a guy there who spoke fluent French and Italian, passable German, and was an expert on all things Swiss. He knew every element of history, political, social economic and cultural. Great guide and super patriot. He was from Poland and had come there on holiday. Electrical engineer by trade, took a job as an electrician’s helper and wound up working for the municipal electric utility in Bern. Also quite proficient in the manual of arms, and served as a shooting instructor. Poster child for assimilation.
The Czechs have concealed carry, so there is an example of how this might work with a bordering nation. This may not be a popular position in Germany yet, but it’s not impossible that it might happen.
Once they’re gone, they’re gone, and you ain’t gettin’ them back. “Every law-abiding citizen should be in a position to defend themselves, their family and their friends.” What a silly notion. The government will protect you! Well, that or they will send a bio-hazard crew to pick up your body parts and a fire hose to wash your bodily fluids into the sewer.
“Welcome to da party, pal.”
“This would affect the law-abiding citizens – and not those who get their weapons from the darknet,” Petry said. She also slammed the current gun law debate as essentially portraying “legal gun possession as something more scandalous than those illegally having weapons.”
Sounds vaguely familiar. I just can’t seem to remember who in the States keep making the same argument? Probably some fringe group who thinks the Constitution and Bill of Needs, wait, Rights? actually means what it says? Naw.
The first time a German citizen uses a firearm to defend themselves against an obvious terror attack by one of Merkel’s guests, the full weight of the German government/police apparatus will crush said German citizen. Insanity. Expect much the same in a deep blue city/state here.
Really? Then how come it hasn’t happened in Illinois, which has tighter gun laws than any place else except La-La-Land?
Although no longer the case, not long ago virtually every Germany male had to serve 2 years in their armed forces. They probably have more of their population proficient with weapons per capita than we do. So their issue is the same one we have here: government control, not the potential for “untrained” people shooting each other.
I wonder what the “official” excuse will be?
It seems to me that any sane person would, by now, understand that the only way to get a competent thought through a leftist’s head is to engrave that thought on the pointy end of a spike then slam that spike through their fucking skull.
It is not possible to be competent and be a leftist.
Yesss…. look at who got elected twice to an extremely important office… and look at what has happened since then.
Also have a look-see at Germany after the election of Merkel. I’ve asked previously WTF is going on in her head and received several explanations. I’ll boil it down to her being freaking incompetent and detached from reality. Her FIRST responsibility is the safety of her people. HER people would be the current citizens of Germany. The ones who have been there for generations. Not those crawling through the wire to get free shit for life and also having the added ‘benefit’ of being able to rape the women of Germany and other countries. (My apology for the poor word choice but the best I could come up with.) That would also be the first responsibility of what’s his name, the community organizer who lucked into the presidency. These ‘leaders’ envision a world 100 years in the future when all is peaceful w/o social, economic or international conflict. All is well. They forget what happens getting there, decades into the future, with the slaughter of THEIR peaceful citizens by barbarians. These comments extend to the heads of other countries who are also selling out their people, putting them at risk so they can be politically correct or whatever is their motivation. I’m wondering how the liberals in this country will attempt to convince the public that sharia law is a ‘right’ of the invaders. Particularly the chopping off of hands, murder of homosexuals, female genital mutilation to name a few of their barbaric practices.

Dear Germany,
You gave the nation back to the social Fascists under a new name. So you’re fucked.
Sucks to be you, but you should have learned your lesson the last time.
