The USA will throw Europe under the bus
A couple months ago Gates o V had a heated argument with LittleGF and the later was accused of not helping the Anti-Jihadist. I stated here that American institutions (except for individuals may be) will never support Anti-Islamists and I explained why.
Here is the proof: the American IP povider bolted before anything happened.
This big talk about Eurabia, Sharia, "kiss good by to EU" is bullshit: Americans many times betrayed their best friends; - in Vietnam, the Kurds, the Hmong, Hungarians (1956)Serbs, next will be Israel and Taiwan.
American business interests -real or imaginary override any moral or ideological considerations. At the end may be Europe will be the saviour rather than Al-Obama Hussein.
She's absolutely right. I have conversations with other people trying to expose them to the dangers of Islam in Europe and here, and I'm met with the usual indifferent moral equivalence, even from Christians. "Well, they're not all like that!!1111!!" The number of actual, thinking conservatives in this country is probably pretty small, and the jet-set Davos Men are firmly in control of our foreign policy. Europeans must understand that we (the USA) will probably do to them what we did to the Serbs and Israelis: shove them under the bus.
I've been studying the issue of Europeans arming themselves for awhile now. The major fly in the ointment appears to be the construction of reliable barrels. Shotguns are the best thing to own for self defense and CQB because of their speed and power. But they can't be easily concealed and kept in automobiles and other places outside the home where a weapon is actually handy. I still haven't been able to figure out how to turn out a shotgun barrel on a lathe because of their large size and thickness near the breech caused by the forcing cone.
I think one could actually construct a pistol barrel without too much trouble on a small lathe, but rifling it would still be difficult. Benchtop milling machines and lathes are becoming cheaper and cheaper, which means that everyone can own the means of production of a pistol.
My friend lived in Germany for a couple of years and he said that guns could be purchased from your neighborhood Russian. It seems to me that given the right of everyone to defend themselves and the laxity of European laws, finding a Russian may be the way to go.
Anyone who has knowledge in barrel making, please comment.

I posted this somewhere before. I don't think here. When I was a kid, a guy in our neck of the woods nutted-up and shot up the area wounding one man before the locals/police killed him. My memory is he made a shotgun from a piece of pipe, wood and a screen door spring. My father says it was pipe and a hammer. Point being a functioning single-shot shotgun is not a complicated thing to make. (Ammo may become the scarce part.) Such a one shot deal recalls to my mind the cheap single shot .45 cal. pistols the Allies dropped into Europe. Their only purpose was to shoot a Nazi and take his good stuff. Years ago there was a rumour that the CNC program for a complete CZ pistol was on disc for anyone wanting it. Also PR they made rifled barrels in 1825 (I just picked a year) using crude tooling. It probably just takes some skill, tooling, practice and determination.
The latter is what we most lack nowadays.
