Many observers have long suspected that the so-called Coalition Winnenden interests represents: in addition to the individual coping with trauma victims of the now only two members, it may have slipped also about to gain a career alternative. Not only because of the rapid onset of action of the PR professional alliance is also the question of the financing. As the daily mirror has now revealed, are also industrial interests in the game. This could mean that the moral credit of the Action Alliance is playful final.
Under the heading "arms company influence in the victim alliance. Propaganda to secure firearms, "reports the Tagesspiegel that in the Establishing the foundation of the Action Alliance Bernd Dietel was present with his company source system support the demands of the Foundation and be used for far-reaching prohibitions and legal changes to safeguard firearms. The distinctive curly Dietel can also be seen on image documents.
;
the same time he was majority shareholder of the company Armatix, the biometric security systems for weapons offering. Armatix collaborations included with the company regarding a Smartgun Anschütz - a fact that the Anschütz downplayed the fact that a product flyer was issued as a basis for discussion. Source systems and Armatix were also established under the same business address. Dietel have declared they want to sell in the first year of production up to 20,000 biometrically secure weapons. It is worth noting: Armatix was a member of the Association of Gunsmiths and through this membership, a member of the Forum weapons law. The Guardian reveals the content of cross-connection: "Blatantly the Action Alliance asked in a recently published open letter is a legal requirement for their [Armatix] biometric security systems, promoting even open to the producer, who virtually has a monopoly on this technology." The Action Alliance, which manifests itself to all sorts of firearms crimes that fit close to their own claims (mind you not one of the significantly more frequent acts of illegal firearms), nothing against the Tagesspiegel on these allegations. This lack of transparency in relation to criticism is not unique.
It is true that these relationships were already long been discussed in forums and blogs from shooting circles. The said newspaper article but the first time the general public an insight into this background of the action taken Alliance. Not only by this disclosure, but also by one-sided, exaggerated and too frequent to-word sign with generalizations (large-caliber weapons have no place in sport shooting anything - why not really Who has to be determined) or a serious hoax (alleged, however, refuted Number of votes in an action "Killer Games") seems to be the credibility of this Action Alliance have suffered considerably. Since the activities of the Action Alliance is not on the expertise of weapons and firearms legislation or other aspects of homeland security is based, but on the role as a national sacrifice, that is a moral authority, it may mean the final out. A voluntary dissolution of this organization and a neutral work-up of their activities would be our opinion, a respectable step.
