Really great article, though I believe the guns they are talking about are more or less DIY shotguns and homemade muskets, not Type 81s or anything. Though if you are a member of the Communist Party, the authorities will look away if they discover you with a rifle under your car seat.
I guess what the group I'm talking about is trying to do is to make it so that someone in Xinjiang or Bejing or Hong Kong can make his/her own firearm using common and unregulated parts.
I'm all for that.
Yeah my point was that the west has surpassed the authoritarian state in gun control, so no point in looking at them and just focus on what is happening in our backyards. If not for home made firearms, the Muslims in my country would probably be in the forms of Rohingya people. Our muslim struggle here was never about religion but more of rights and ancestral lands, if not for their guns and starting their own army, they would have been wiped out already. It is a clear picture where weapons and the ability to make them actually did push our government for a better understanding.
This is why you actually see the Philippine government get harsh followed by amnesty and allowing them some freedoms rather than outright taking them on. Which was successful in terms of the Muslim got control of their lives and lands while the government was able to pacify them. At its height the standing army of the Muslim seccessionist was bigger then the Armed Forces, down to a couple of thousands.
