Im taking a wild guess here ,US has the most liberal law on weapon possession ..
You can legally purchase and carry around a really huge blade , automatic or semi-automatic handgun ,you can have at your home all kind of rifles crossbow ,I think that in some stated,you can even get a licence for a handgun with silencer and I will take a wild guess one more time The government wants to change the weapon-laws and reduce armed civilians now you take a guess,why???
Remember Operation Gladio? The Pentagon, through NATO, organized bombings and shootings in the streets of Europe. When one of the terrorists got caught, he explained at his trial: "You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple. They were supposed to force these people, the Italian public to turn to the State to ask for greater security." He later explained the "strategy of tension" to the BBC: "To create tension within the country to promote conservative, reactionary social and political tendencies."
Google "Brabant massacre" for more gory details.
So the answer to the question, WHY? is really very simple: When you terrorize the population, you open the door for fascist, authoritarian politicians.
Operation Gladio never ended. It's still happening, right here in America.
Wade Michael Page, the "man with a 9/11 tattoo" blamed for the Wisconsin Sikh temple shooting, turned out to be a US Army psy-ops specialist.
