| Message | Oppposed, we would be partly responsible for what happened with those weapons |

| Message | The BLP sees this differently. You just might feel responsible but in fact you are not. The buyer and the one who is pulling the trigger is to be hold responsible. |

| Message | Not if you know how the weapons will be used, or that the country has a history of violating human rights. If a man wants to buy a gun off you and tells you he wants to murder someone, or you know he's on a wanted list, but you still sell him a gun, then you are partly responsible for what he does with it. However, if you the seller do not know anything about the person, and the buyer goes on to use the gun to murder, then you are not responsible. So I agree with MIP. Opposed. |
