What are you going to do against a modern army? Poke Abrams tanks with a sharp 3D-printed stick? Perhaps, shoot bombers from your handgun? You can not win against a modern army using only light weapons. There's no question about it. Can you remind me which military has given something beyond token resistance to the US army lately?

Sure, if you want to use terrorist tactics (hiding between civilians, striking off-duty soldiers - that sort of thing) then you can make the life of an occupying army a living hell. But if you're thinking about using terrorist weapons with impunity, then have you ever thought about an army that doesn't have modern rules of engagement?

Oh, I get it. You'd prefer to kill toddlers, perhaps even primary school children. That'll surely help your cause.

Nuclear bomb was morally ambiguous. It was developed to actually stop an aggression of a terrible enemy. These guns are made specifically to make dodging regulations easier.

This shows a disdain for the will of people. If you don't like the gun control laws then go and change them. If your political system is corrupt - go and change it.

Moscow Subway doesn't plan to "read data on passangers' phones". They are simply setting up femtocells to report if a phone with a flagged number comes close. So if someone steals a phone from you on the subway (happens all the time :( ) you simply need to inform station personnel and police would have a chance to catch a thief.

Technically, it can be used for tracking. But why bother? Cell phone companies must provide tracking records to law enforcement on request anyway.
