IDEOLOGY
Mitigating firearm misuse is the underlying goal of true gun control efforts by moderates on the Left. It’s also the best way to protect gun rights by eliminating any further push for overly restrictive legislation. Evidence shows that Accountability & Auditability (A&A) have been extremely effective at reducing gun misuse and crime. The marvel of Blockchain enables A&A to be possible, for the first time ever, without gun registration or overly restrictive controls. It can be even less restrictive than the current background check process. A solution that works for most people on both sides is a solution that may break the political stagnation and possibly affect real change. FAABS has been designed to independently work for any nation with a specific focus on the USA situation.
Gun Control Measures
- Far more effective A&A than universal background checks
- Every single gun transfer is auditable
- Near 100% certainty of crime gun traceability to last legal owner
- Covers straw purchases
- Covers all gun show and private sales
- Covers gifting and lending of firearms
Gun Rights Measures
- No gun registry
- No restrictions through bureaucracy
- No background check during gun transfers
- No public information at all
- No government control of Blockchain ecosystem or data
- Nobody ever knows how many guns any party possesses
- Very convenient gun transfers
- Takes seconds to few minutes
- Any time (24/7)
- Anywhere there’s internet access
- No 3rd party involvement
- Completely private
MISSION
The inventors of the FAABS technology are transferring the control of the code to a nonprofit organization under the same name. The mission of the nonprofit will be to further develop FAABS and educate interested parties on how Blockchain can be used to solve the gun control conflict.
STATUS
The Blockchain code written in Solidity is published on GitHub for anyone to review and test. A book may be published soon. The book and published code would temporarily take the place of a Technical Whitepaper. With donations, a nonprofit will be created. The off-blockchain code is in the planning stage.
SUPPORT THE CAUSE
If you would like to support the FAABS effort, support educating more on how Blockchain might affect the discussion, support getting the book published or if you just love to support truly valuable, practical Blockchain applications, please donate below. Thank you!
