UN Committee Wants Changes to US Constitution [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 19 November 2023 | John Semmens

In a "social forum" presided over by Iran's ambassador to the UN Ali Bahreini, the Committee on Human Rights called for some drastic changes to the US Constitution. "An examination of this document reveals that it bars the government from infringing on freedom of speech," Bahreini complained. "This means any fool can commit blasphemy or insult the government without fear of punishment. This affront to piety and obedience is compounded by a provision allowing people to keep and bear arms. How can the government effectively rule when those they need to chastise have the means to resist?"

Farideh Karimi, an Iranian woman who is president of the Women's Human Rights International Association, condemned the chairmanship of Bahreini, saying "it's really an insult that he was appointed. Iran is governed by a regime that denies women basic human rights. In comparison, in the United States women have the same rights as men. Maybe their constitution's protection of freedoms is a key factor in safeguarding women's rights."

In the US, the rights guaranteed by the Constitution are also under domestic attack. In the last week, presidential candidate former South Carolina Governor and UN Ambassador Nikki Haley (R) vowed that "one of my first actions as president will be to require all social media users to use their own names on their posts. No anonymous speech should be allowed. It's a matter of national security."

Rival presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla) called Haley's plan "dangerous and unconstitutional. Anonymous speech played a big role in organizing and sustaining America's fight for independence from England in 1776. During the pandemic and the 2022 election campaign, Biden's FBI goons coerced social media companies to censor free speech on their sites. And just this week, Biden's FCC announced it will strictly govern the Internet. Suppression of free speech is what China does. We should not be emulating their tyranny."

In addition, US District Judge John Kane ruled that "the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms does not include the right to acquire firearms. States may, if they choose, outlaw the purchase or transfer of firearms from one owner to another. Neither does the it prevent local law-enforcement authorities from barring firearms possession at specific locations as a means of protecting the public safety like the Earps did in Tombstone, Arizona in 1879."

Just because they call themselves the UN it doesn’t mean Americans can’t declare war on those third world bass turds.

Oh, no! Not insult the government!Also notice they equate blasphemy and insulting the government. Pretty sure they would remove the 2nd amendment as well.

This really is semi-satire since a lot of the supposed responses actually happened in different contexts.
