Is the Philippines a Terrorist Country?
European Union Countries have imposed a self-styled arms embargo on the Philippines by refusing to sell guns to Philippine end users. The apparent reason given is that the Philippines is labeled as a "terrorist country." Other petty reasons include certain dealers' misconduct in declaring the end users of the imported firearms.Is the Philippine a terrorist country?On the contrary, the Philippines has a robust Constitutional Democracy, with free elections, elected leaders, courts of law, and a thriving economy. In fact as of the late '90's, the Philippines was the largest market for European-made guns such as Glock, in Asia. Our gun licensing system is still free, but increasingly becoming draconian.

PASAWAY! CHICAGO MAYOR DALEY DOES A VERSOZA
As reported by Associated Press Writer, Don Babwin, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley will push for a strict handgun ordinance to replace its doomed gun ban that will likely include limiting each resident to a single handgun, requiring gunowners to have insurance and prohibiting gun stores from setting up shop in the city, his top lawyer said Tuesday.
