Should modern arsenal weaponry be legal everywhere?
Does it require special license/permission?
The transfer of weapons from countries which are not Member States of the European Union does not require the prior issuance of a certificate by the competent consul of the Republic of Poland. A Polish citizen who had a firearms license received a package from the USA sent to him by an American. I found that text sentences after Googling it.
It’s just only in self-defence. I guess it’s up to political debate especially these days nowadays.
In case of danger.

All weapons that are not mostly usualble for defense only should be banned worldwide !

I never understood why humanitys most favourite hobby is to kill each other and to make stuff that makes killing each other easier.


For Private people guns that shoot rubber bullets or electric guns should be more then sufficient if even needed at all ... guns that can kill should never be alowed in private hands (yes I am mostly looking at you America!)

For Countries and such air defense systems are really well and maybe some EMP rockets or whatever .... of course for the worst case some lethal stuff is necessary but then again there is a difference between weapons that kill many people at once no matter who they are and weapons that can kill specified targets not harming bystanders (at least minimizing the risk for them)

Look up "Lord of War" . Based on Actual Events, and notice the last Statement that is made on Screen.

For the US: Our Second Amendment was put in place, so that the People could Defend and Protect themselves, their Families, Homes, and if needed, Protect and Defend the Country from External and Internal Threats.
Few Examples.....
1: A Woman in New Jersey had a Restraining Order against her Ex. She was also looking to try and get a Firearm to Protect herself. She was Killed by her Ex who used a KNIFE to Kill her. She had called to find out what was taking so long to get Approved, 4 Days prior to her Death. Thanks "Gun Control". Woman's Name - Carol M. Bowne . Kind of makes me wonder how many others have Died waiting for the means to Defend themselves, or those who have Died after being Denied.
2: Illiniois has BIG Gun Control. Yet there are shootings that happen there practically every Day. Looks like Gun Control aint doing jack.
3: In the 1990s, there was a Ban on "Assault Weapons". It was in place for about 10 Years. It did nothing to stop Shootings.
4: FBI Did a Study, and found that more People are killed by Hands, Feet, Hammers, Pipes, and Knives, then they are Guns, or Rifles. They going to Ban the rest next??????
5: If someone can not get a Rifle, or any other Firearm, they will just figure out another way to hurt People. Vehicle, things that go Boom, you name it.
6: What would Dems have done if Trump had forcefully stayed in Office???? Trump wanted to get the US out of NATO, was supportive of Russia going after Ukraine, was friendly with North Korea, and idolized China's Leader for being their Leader for Life, and his Wife had ties to Putin prior to Trump cheating on his then wife with her, and is supportive of Russia. Now what if Trump started being Buddy-Buddy with Russia, North Korea, China, and started making plans for the US to be part of their Dictatorship????? What, going to go into their little Gun-Free Zones that wont do jack for them, or hide in their Corners????? They can do that, while the rest of America fights for our Country.

Even that Europeans do not feel that sometimes, Western Europe is too peaceful, extremely peaceful. You should not change anything in this area without a huge reason.

Also, Europe have some more urgent matters on hand, like a fucking war, a winter in the middle of a energy crisis and the injury of Karim Benzema.

I feel like the government would be more inclined to answer to a population that's armed. Rather than fucking the lower classes in the ass constantly.

There are some comments here that I should reply to, but I'll just say this: They're needed for self-defense when you get attacked in the street or worse, a home invasion.

In an ideal, peaceful (not "peaceful") we'd not need it at all.

I guess it's waste of ammunitions,but definitely not a waste of time. Of at least learning how to properly shoot in case of what if scenario of World War 3.

The Second Amendment is irrelevant to the debate on how to prevent the cause of shootings in the US. The problem really is the NRA advocating laws which allow mentally unstable people who intend to murder to freely purchase and own automatic weapons in more states than not. Thus you see the consequences. As a former NRA member and gun owner I canceled membership when these paranoid fantasies become an effective way to juice up memberships for lobbying against sensible ways to differentiate a qualified gun owner from a person who may be a serious threat to others. The extreme paranoid fantasy many people seem to suffer from started in 1999 or so after Oklahoma City. The fact many states advocate selling guns to anyone, with no training on how to use a weapon, store it safely and know the rules doesnt seem to hamper freedom but it would help prevent people who are only buying with intent to murder. That seems like it protects far more people's right who matter too. The people who are getting murdered and theor families have a right to not fear being shot in the back but a citizen or a govt law enforcement. Read the second amendment and tell me where the NRA stands if the govt isnt actually the threat they say it? Spoiler alert: bankrupt and imfected with Russian moles. Guns are out of control. Def blame NRA on this BS.4

Depends on the country. I think Ukraine should allow their citizens to arm, because they live next to a country that doesn't want them to even exist.
