The document discusses gun control policies and their effects. It argues that gun control laws do not reduce crime based on data from New Jersey, Hawaii, Washington D.C., New York City, and Chicago. The document suggests gun control is pursued to establish totalitarian control over populations by disarming citizens. It hypothesizes how future gun control laws may be implemented and enforced, predicting widespread non-compliance and conflict with law enforcement.

1. USA Gun Control
By Aurelia Masterson, www.panamalaw.org
Introduction – What we are going to do is politically discuss the issues related to gun control.
Does Gun Control Reduce Crime? – Emphatically no. Never once did it ever do that. Below are
several studies that can be researched on the Internet yourself that document the fact that gun control
never reduces crime.
New Jersey – In 1996 New Jersey passed what was considered to be the most stringent gun laws in the
USA. Two years later their murder rate went up 46% and their robbery rate about doubled.
Hawaii – In 1968 Hawaii passed harsh gun laws. At the time of the legislation their murder rate was
2.4 per 100,000 per year. Nine years later their murder rate had tripled to 7.2 per 100,000.
Washington, D.C. – In 1976 they passed a major gun control law. They even stopped people from
owning guns in their homes. Their murder rate went up 134% while the USA rate for murder dropped
2%.
New York City – They have some of the most restrictive gun control laws in the world. All sales of
any sort of gun are restricted and tightly controlled. 20% of all armed robberies in the USA are
committed in New York City and they do not have anywhere close to 20% of the population. This is
what happens when the criminals know a certain population is unlikely to be unable to defend
themselves.
Chicago, New York City, Detroit and Washington, D.C.- Each of these cities has accomplished a
virtual ban on the private ownership of guns. The Washington D.C laws are being fought out in the
appellate courts at present. These four cities have 20% of the homicides in the USA yet they only make
up 6% of the USA population. This means that restrictive gun control leads to a tripling of the
homicide rate. Some one is going to say wait the population in these areas is why the murder rate is so
high. Fine we can look at Arlington, Virginia which is a city right across the Potomac River from

2. Washington D.C with sensible gun control laws so the population base should not be that different.
Their murder rate is 10% of Washington D.C. (7.0 murders per 100,000 people versus 77.8 murders per
100,000 people in Washington D.C). We can also look to Virginia Beach, Va. a nearby city of 400,000.
They have sensible gun laws allowing for easy access to firearms and their murder rate is 4.1 per
100,000.
Other Effects Non-Restrictive Gun Laws have on Crime – In the USA in a given year law abiding
citizens kills 2,000 to 3,000 criminals. They also wound another 9,000 to 17,000 criminals a year. This
is a reduction in the load of violent crimes the government must arrest, detain, prosecute and imprison.
It also sends a strong signal to the other would be criminals. Criminals worry far more about an
encounter with an armed law abiding citizen than a policeman. Police are most likely going to be polite
about asking the criminal to drop their weapon and submit. The citizen in fear of protecting himself and
his family is going to be much more prone to firing his weapon than a police officer. Criminals’
greatest fear is running into an armed victim when committing a crime. This was based on a study of
1874 felons from 10 states. In this study 38% of these felons said at least one time they had been scared
off, shot at or wounded by an armed victim. Only 1% of the time do criminals take a gun away from a
victim, yet 10% of the police officers that are shot, are shot with their own guns. Police officers are
slow to shoot and the criminals know this and thus are more fearful of an armed citizen. Private citizens
kill three times as many criminals as police do. Remember if someone is assaulting you or robbing you
or your house the police will likely only be taking a report not encountering the criminals. It is the
citizen who needs all the help and assistance of weapons to survive the criminal encounter.
Why Do Governments Seek Gun Control? – Fear! They are afraid of losing control over the
population. The prefect state of affairs for a police state is the confiscation of all privately owned
firearms. Then the possibility of an overthrow of the government goes down by about 99.9%. They
never want partial gun controls like only machine guns or “assault type weapons” to be banned. They
want all the privately owned guns gone. The partial gun control is the Salami theory. You keep cutting
a slice away until there is nothing left. The only reason for gun control is to make room for a
totalitarian government, nothing else. Sometime there are people ignorantly confused who support gun
control thinking it will do something to make the world a safer place to live. Play with these people and
say when the government disarms then you will. Tell them to chase the government and tell them to
have the government give up their guns for police leaving only the military armed. Use the British
Bobbies who used to be unarmed as an example. Tell them the Cayman Island and Nassau police are
unarmed. Have them call for the disarming of the police. Play with them. Have fun. Every time the
police shoot someone accidentally tell them to call for the disarming of the police.
How Would Gun Control Happen – Well Obama showed it to you recently. They were starting to
introduce gun control bills again. We do not know how aggressively they will push them this time.
Nothing in these bills will do any practical good in terms of reducing crime, not a single thing. They
also increase the penalties each time. So if it would happen what would it look like. OK there would be
a bill that say banned all assault weapons. The bill would say the attorney General can add any gun to
the list he wanted. Over time he would keep adding guns to test the public response. The banned guns
would be prohibited from being sold at first. They would leave .22 caliber single shot rifles and single

3. shot shotguns until the end to satisfy the call for hunting guns. Then the banned guns would become
illegal to own even if they were grandfathered in, registered whatever. This would be something like
turn them in or face 20 years in prison for each gun plus a $100,000 fine for each gun. I am serious on
the penalties.
No one would be coming to anyone’s house to collect the guns for a long time. They would wait for
someone to get shot with a .22 caliber gun and then say these too need to be banned. They always love
to call for new restrictive laws after a shooting crime. Do that back to them. Every time you see the
police abuse a person with a taser call for them to be banned and not used by the police. They will soon
stop when their own tactics gets turned on them. Now the people have their guns and they can run
around quoting Charleston Heston and his out of my cold dead hands slogan. The next stage is anytime
the local police get into a house like to respond to a burglary, a domestic abuse call, a noisy party
anything and they see the guns then someone gets to go to jail for a long time. The word soon gets out.
If you think the people that own guns are going to like get together, carry guns and march on
Washington D.C. armed to the teeth to demand gun laws be repealed you need to get some counseling.
You will never see this. If anything like this were ever going to happen it would have happened in 1968
with the first serious federal gun control law. This came on the heels of the Kennedy assassination.
What did that have to do with gun control laws anyway?
I am going to say some things about how it used to be. If any of you find this too wild to be true verify
it. Find old issues of Guns and Ammo magazines and read the ads. You were able to buy guns mail
order across state lines before 1968. There were a few states that prohibited this but that was it. You
were able to buy machine guns fairly easily. You were able to freely buy what they call destructive
devices. Boys ant-tank rifles (Boys was a manufacturers name) were being sold for $99.00 with bipods
and all. The ads used to say for the jackrabbit that got away. This rifle fires a .51 caliber round that is
effective on lightly armored tanks. Bazookas were a mail order item as were mortars. Armor piercing
ammo was freely available until the late 1970’s or early 1980’s. They had lovely armor piercing fully
jacketed .45 auto rounds that would pierce engine blocks, let alone bullet resistant vests. Guns were not
registered except for a few states and cities that did this. Those yellow forms came along with the 1968
gun control law. This was when guns were fairly well available and by mail order. An armed society is
a polite society. Criminals are not polite.
Response To New Restrictive Gun Control Laws - We will now address how the people will be
likely to respond. This is hypothetical and based on speculation only. No one can predict what the
people will do with any accuracy including the government. There are many mitigating circumstances
that will come to bear on the hearts and minds of those affected.
In this hypothetical scenario the people in our opinion are going to not physically resist new guns laws
instead just sort of go with the flow and verbally oppose them only, for the most part. They will bury
their guns and ammo in the woods. They will hide them inside the walls, under the floorboards etc.
They will say things like well when the time comes etc. Eventually the local police will start arresting

4. people when they discover the guns in vehicles, in houses, informants (the maid, the plumber, the cable
TV guy, the alarm company guy) tell them about them and so forth. These people will be arrested and
get probably 10 years for each gun plus massive fines like $100,000 for each gun. There will be calls
for amnesty asking people to just turn the guns in and walk away free. Many will do this out of fear.
There will be no revolutionary forces to join and resist. After a year or two there will be raids on
houses. They will use devices to see images behind the sheetrock. They will use metal detectors in the
yards and land.
When they find a gun after the owner does not turn it over when they show up they will throw the book
at the person. They will take his family as accomplices. All will be in jail for many years. The fines
will cause them to lose their homes, cars and assets. They will be destroyed completely. Only thing
worse would be to kill them. Those with guns hidden in the woods will be questioned as to where their
guns are. They will probably be charged with some crime for not reporting a stolen gun within 72
hours, which is found in HR 45 the latest gun control bill (not law yet). So when they say the guns were
lost or stolen they get charged with the crime of not reporting this and get serious jail time for each
gun. Gun registration is the prelude to the confiscation, nothing else.
The reporting the lost and stolen guns in 72 hours is the fix against you saying you lost the guns when
they come to take them away. Those with unregistered guns will be able to hide them in the woods.
There are many ways to do this securely and preserve the firearm. If the weapon is wiped free of prints
and any blood like from getting pinched by the slide (think DNA) then this person should be safe if the
weapons are found and not traceable to him in any way. What good is it doing them to have the guns
buried in the woods? It is just a psychological game they are playing with themselves. Once a man
came to Confucius and said I had a jar full of money buried in the woods. I went to dig it up to check
on it and the money was gone. What should I do? Confucius said put rocks in the jar, bury it again and
make believe the money is still there. It would be very dangerous for these people to even go and check
on their weapons and they probably never will. I do not think there will be any rising up of gun owners.
They are not going to engage the police in active firefights to keep their guns. The guns will just go
away and the police state will be in full swing.
What the Police Are Missing – Police do not see their role in the police state correctly or even close to
it. They miss the bigger picture. To them it is a status job, the pay is good and the perks are big. Police
and their families get out from traffic tickets. Ask any law enforcement officer you may know well.
This includes spouses, children, brothers, sisters, and parents. In many departments they even have
little gold and silver courtesy badges they give their relatives. The police and their families get
favorable treatment with accident reports, ouch if you are the other driver. They have a lot of favorable
treatment letting them get away with things regular people do not get away with. They usually cannot
get away with major crimes. Police carry guns all over the USA without a carry permit. They can carry
on airplanes if they are Federal Officers. They can carry guns in government buildings, in stadiums,
schools etc.
If they are in their own jurisdiction they can get away with anything short of major felonies with
victims. Police like this treatment. It gives them status and pride. It teaches them there are only three

5. classes of people. The ruling class to them is not the Federal Reserve Bank; they would not know what
that is. It is the senators, congressmen, mayors, supervisors, judges etc. They know these people can
exert their power and influence and make their life miserable in many ways. They leave these people
alone. Then there are police, which they always leave alone. Then come you the citizen. You pay their
salary and they have no respect for you. You do not matter in that you have no power to do anything
against them and you cannot retaliate. They are there to control you. The Taser is the latest police state
tactic to be adopted. If a person doe not verbally snap to and respond to a verbal command of a police
officer like get out of the car, stand here, sit down, move here etc they taser them.
The police do not know they are conditioning the populace to respond to the police blindly without
thinking or face painful consequences. I do not really know what they think. I guess they think it is
proper to demand such respect and control over those they are supposed to protect. Most people that get
tasered are involved in a victimless non-violent crime. This makes it worse. The police are not aware of
any of this. They are in their own little world. They do not worry too much about the financial crisis in
that they think there will always be work for them. Wait until the layoffs sink in later this year. Their
attitude will change for the worse. They will do anything their handlers ask to keep their jobs. The
police do not think they are there to protect and serve. They are there to control the populace and
protect the ruling class and each other. Can you remember when police had nice government service
looking uniforms, revolvers, long wooden sticks and helped people change flat tires. Now they look
like storm troopers, wear black uniforms and masks, never help anyone with anything, have high tech
weapons and strike fear and terror into the hearts of those that have contact with them. This is not being
done by chance it is planned to strike fear into you of the police who used to be there to serve you. The
police used to be hard on armed robbers, rapists, burglars, muggers and real criminals. Now most of the
people in the prisons are there for crimes that are victimless. A government statue is not a victim.
When the Police State Flourishes What Is It Like For The Police? – Well this is something they do
not consider. Let us say gun control has been accomplished and private ownership of guns is historical.
So the people are no longer a threat. Who will the paranoid rulers fear next? They are always paranoid
because they do not rule by popular support. Ever see the army of bodyguards they have now, this is
nothing. You got it, the police and military is what they will fear the most. They have the weapons, the
access, the association potential to organize etc. Imagine police leaving their guns in their lockers when
going off shift. This is how it will be. No private guns for police anymore. Internal security
investigations will become a lifestyle.
There will not be any more lawsuits against the government. The Internal Security Forces will be super
cops trained to resent the police, take advantage of them and rule them by fear and harshness. What the
police do the population now, is what the internal security forces will do to the police then only worse
since there will not be any consequences for their actions. There will be mandatory polygraph exams.
Long interrogations. Police homes and cars being searched. Their phones and email being tapped. They
will be followed. Other police constantly being questioned about their colleagues. The role model is the
SS Hitler had. Remember who tried to kill Hitler, the military on several occasions. The military will
also be handled harshly but they are much more easily controlled due to the nature of the military but
their internal security forces will constantly be engaged in a war of terror against them.

6. The internal security forces will have to get results or else they will be considered ineffective so one
way or another they will be discovering sedition, spying, attempts to revolt, steal, commit criminal acts
etc. The police will be policed very harshly. They will in turn be harsh towards the population. The
police do not see any of this coming. The Federal Police are in the same boat as the local police. They
will become more and more entrusted to police the police and protect the state as time goes on. There
will not be much point in protecting the state from an unarmed populace so guess who they will focus
on – the others who can have access to guns – the military and police. The internal security forces the
federal police have will rein terror on them as well. They will have to uncover plots to keep their jobs
and show they serve a purpose. Doom and gloom.
Will This Scenario Be Likely? – In our opinion no. We ascribe to the breaking up of the USA due to
financial collapse similar to the USSR in the 1980’s. It looks like Obama is afraid to push forward with
gun control legislation just now. This can be a ruse while they work hard to get it passed quietly
without opposition until it is too late but unlikely. Obama has to maintain order in the face of the
financial collapse, which is already happened, and getting worse by the day. New opposition from 25
million gun owners is not something him and Billary need right now. The countries in the world do not
trust the US and their dollar and they are working fast to replace the dollar as the world reserve
currency.
Anything like this will hurt the USA and throw them into hyperinflation. The USA will have to start
buying foreign currency to make purchases abroad and the exchange rate will be bad for the USD. Gun
control is a slow freight train that takes years to effect even from where they are today. The USA
Government is really fighting for its continued existence and hoping to keep its role as a superpower
and the world’s policeman. I would say they have two chances – slim and none. They destroyed
themselves with their idiotic greedy monetary practices. The descriptive term should be – Dead
Country Walking.
