Have you read about Lithuanian gun laws? They allow all permanent residents to carry a firearm after undergoing review.
I have an issue if they're taking firearms from law abiding residents on the premise they could engage in subversive activities.
It seems a few here are okay with confiscation if it suits their political ideologies of whom the " enemy" is.
This same type of mentality was applied to my wifes uncle who was from Yugoslavia. Everytime he'd fly home to visit family and came back to the states he'd be interrogated for hours by US customs. He eventually had to get a attorney to get off the " watch list". This went on from 1980s-till the early 2000s.
He lead a successful life here doing business, negotiating deals as a buyer and was a member of the 7th day Adventist church.
We have to remember there's people. Then politics with governments.
Casting a wide net is a dangerous precedent
It's about foreign nationals, dude.
I've read further into the laws and I have Estonian and Lits and Lat friends. You would be surprised on the amount of cyber warfare, espionage, and subterfuge that Russians have done in the Baltics. THEY GAIN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING aligning themselves and maintaining Russian citizenship of which many decided to do. As I said earlier, they are colonist and occupiers that came with an occupying army that none of the baltic citizens asked for.
They make up almost 10 to 25 percent of the population THROUGH NO FAULT AT ALL WITH THE ORIGINAL BALTIC citizens being asked if they should stay when their occupying army left. As I said before, the Russians asked Hungary if 100k of their citizens can stay in Hungary when the army left in 1991. Hungary said NO. They came with an occupying army and virtually none of them made efforts to learn the language, culture, and way of life in Hungary other than WALL OFF their entire city making it ONLY for Soviet citizens.
They have a right to protect their country and they have given tons of leeway for these Russian and BelaRus occupiers to learn the language, LEARN THE WAY OF LIFE and obtain citizenship. Guess what most CHOOSE?
Even here in Hungary where I live part of the year, we have clownish Orckish Russians buying questionable stuff to send home for the war effort including body armor, night vision and thermals.
I question their allegiances until the end of time if they can't even think of the thousand fold benefits of being an EU citizen, the rights, the wages, the pension system.....if all they keep wanting to drink is that toxic Russian nationalist koolaid.
Even here in Oregon... Woodburn of all places , I've seen Orckish clowns with big Z letters on their cars and trucks.
Then again come around to Cinco de Mayo and their are more Mexican flags than Americans....so it goes many ways.
