Dear Sir, Madam
I assume that you have already noticed Commissioner Malmström’s campaign against gun violence in Europe and also read the COM(2013)716 presented to the Council and the European Parliament on 21.10.2013.
We believe the Communication contains manipulated data, misleading information and defamatory statements that criminalize legal gun owners.
Commission’s actions speak for themselves:
• an on-line survey, in which 81 000 citizens strongly opposed further action on EU level regarding the firearms legislation, was dismissed shortly afterwards by the DG Home as not “representative of a cross-section of the general public” and not “scientifically based”
• poor knowledge of the Directive 91/477/EEC, as amended by Directive 2008/51/EC, the Group of Experts and Mrs. Malmström have demonstrated. Either addressing issues that are already regulated or interfering where even the Firearms directive allows the EU Member states, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, some initiative.
• Mrs. Malmström’s statement made at the Conference - "Fight against illicit trafficking in firearms. Where do we stand" held on 19 November 2012 in Brussel: ”Legally owned weapons in the EU continue to feed the illegal market.”
In cooperation with the GunLex organisation, around 3000 legal gun owners in Czech Republic have lodged a complaint with the European Ombudsman for suspected data manipulation by the European Commission in the COM(2013)716 presented to the Council and the European Parliament on 21 October 2013.
The complaint does not only summarize Mrs. Malmström’s malpractices, but also requests immediate withdrawal of Commission’s document COM(2013)716. Furthermore, it requests internal investigation into Commissioner’s work that would preferably lead to disciplinary action for serious misconduct and abuse of power that was vested in her by the citizens of the EU.
The elections to the European Parliament will take place next month. Let’s send the European Commission a clear message that misrepresenting facts and ignoring undesired figures in order to justify an EU action at all costs, will not be tolerated.
This complaint is also written in English and we would therefore be very glad, if gun owners in your country would join us too, as we aim to attract (media and public) attention with these complaints in order to prevent Mrs. Malmström becoming Commissioner again and DG Home bureaucrats keeping their present jobs.
Please, publish this initiative on your websites and call on your fellow gun owners to send a complaint as well. Together we have the power to change things for better, please do not waste this opportunity. Let the public and the media know, that the Commission manipulates data in order to overrule the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, I am sure that many European citizens will reflect this during the EP elections.
The Complaint to European Ombudsman together with Guide – How to lodge a complaint on European ombudsman’s web portal, are available on the GunLex websites:

Ми те финишираха с тоя строй преди 20 години и сега си подреждат тяхната форма на капитализъм а тея идиоти си въобразяват, че "Обединена" Европа ще даде някакви реални резултати, по-различни от вървящите по стъпките на Гърция и Испания останали държави...?
