Blackwater, het begrenzen federale wet, gebruikend geheim voorgeheugen van aK-47s

Dinsdag, 24 Juni, 2008

Door Joseph Neff | Het privé militaire bedrijf Blackwater heeft een ongebruikelijke manier gevonden om federale wetten te begrenzen die partijen uit de particuliere sector van het kopen van automatische wapens belemmeren. Blackwater kocht 17 Roemeense aK-47s en 17 Bushmasters, eigendom van de kanonnen aan de sheriff van de Provincie van Camden gaven en de meeste kanonnen bij Blackwater’ houden; s arsenaal in Moyock.

De uiterst kleine Provincie — van Camden; bevolking 9.271 — is één van vreedzaamst in Noord-Carolina. In de laatste 10 jaar, zijn er twee gemelde moorden geweest, drie diefstallen en zeven verkrachtingen. De sheriff heeft enkel 19 afgevaardigden.

De Perenwijn van Tony van de sheriff zei zijn afdeling nooit 17 aK-47s buiten het ontspruiten praktijk in Blackwater heeft gebruikt. Niemand van zijn 19 afgevaardigden is gekwalificeerd om bovengenoemde aK-47s, Perenwijn, en zijn department’ te gebruiken; s de behoefte aan automatische wapens is “ zeer minimal.”

In de zomer van 2005, ondertekende Blackwater CEO Gary Jackson twee overeenkomsten met Maj. Jon Worthington van Sheriff’ s Bureau. Worthington heeft als vuurwapensinstructeur voor Blackwater gewerkt.

“ Blackwater heeft de aankoop van 17 Roemeense ak-47 geweren voor de Provincie Sheriff’ van Camden gefinancierd; s Bureau voor gebruik door Sheriff’ s Bureau, ” de overeenkomst zegt. “ De provincie Sheriff’ van Camden; s het Bureau zal onbeperkte toegang tot deze geweren voor opleiding en kwalificatie, en staat van noodsituatie use.” hebben; Worthington en Jackson ondertekenden ook een overeenkomst voor de aankoop van 17 XM15 E2S automatische geweren Bushmaster.

Waarom sloeg Blackwater dit behandelt de sheriff van de Provincie van Camden?

“ Omdat zij kanonnen nodig hadden, veronderstel ik, ” Bovengenoemd Jackson.

Jackson zei Blackwater een goede collectieve burger die materiaal en opleiding verstrekte was, vaak vrij, om lokale wetshandhaving.

Vergde de Provincie van Camden meer automatische wapens dan afgevaardigden?

“ Zij zijn zeer goed uitgerust, ” Bovengenoemd Jackson.

De perenwijn zei hij can’ t herinnert wie met het idee voor de wapensovereenkomst op de proppen kwam. Hij zei de provincie probeerde om een team tegelijkertijd samen te stellen SWAT.

Niet de beste keus?

Ak-47 zouden een slechte keus van wapen voor een SWAT team, bovengenoemde John Gnagey, uitvoerende directeur van de Nationale Tactische Vereniging van Ambtenaren, de nationale organisatie van ambtenaren SWAT zijn.

Als gevechtswapen, zijn ak-47 te groot en krachtig voor SWAT teams, bovengenoemde Gnagey. Het is ruw maar vrij onnauwkeurig.

“ En there’ s het waarnemingsprobleem, ” Bovengenoemde Gnagey. “Every terrorist attacking the U.S. is armed with AK-47s. ”

Most SWAT teams use the H&K MP5 submachine gun or the Bushmaster M4, he said.

Under federal law, only government agencies — military or law enforcement — are allowed to acquire and possess automatic weapons. There is an exception for automatic weapons purchased before May 1986, when the law went into effect.

Firearms dealers are allowed, under strict conditions, to acquire an automatic weapon if they need to demonstrate the weapon to a police department or other government agency interested in buying the weapon.

Under federal law, it is illegal for a person to receive or possess an automatic weapon that is not registered to that person in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. The 34 weapons are registered to the Camden County sheriff. Seventeen AK-47s and five Bushmasters are stored and used at Blackwater. The other 12 Bushmasters are assigned to Camden County deputies, the sheriff said.

Weapons’ use defended

Jackson, the Blackwater CEO, said he was not violating federal firearms law.

“I don’t believe so,” Jackson said. “As long as I have contracts, I can buy fully automatic weapons.”

Jackson and Erik Prince, Blackwater’s owner, said Blackwater used the AK-47s in training to familiarize police officers or members of the military with a foreign weapon that they might come across while making an arrest or on a battlefield.

Blackwater may also use the AK-47s to train military personnel from other countries who come to the United States for anti-terrorism training funded by the State Department, Prince and Jackson said.

“If the contract tells us to, we do it,” Jackson said.

The agreement between Blackwater and the Sheriff’s Office could be an illegal straw purchase, said Richard Myers, a law professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A straw purchase, Myers said, is when one person fills out the federal firearms registration form to obtain a weapon for another person’s use.

“I prosecuted several when I was with the U.S. attorney,” Myers said. “If I were Blackwater’s attorney, I would be concerned about whether this is a genuine purchase or a straw purchase.”

Sheriff Perry said he did not consult a lawyer about the agreement until recently, when the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the FBI inquired about the arrangement. Last year two former Blackwater employees pleaded guilty to federal firearms violations. They were sentenced to probation on the condition that they assist federal investigators.

Perry said his department was cooperating fully.

“We’re not a target,” Perry said. “We may be a victim in it.”
