United Nations Still After Your Guns

The UN General Assembly has been in session, and if typical of them, nasty things are probably in store for American gun owners as a result.

The Citizen's Committee For The Right To Keep and Bear Arms (CCKRBA), in a recent mailing, said that The UN is still actively pursuing the guns you own, and the ones you want to buy. Don't count out associated non-governmental organizations (NGOs) such as The International Network On Small Arms (IANSA.) IANSA's Rebecca Peters was largely responsible for the disarming of Australians and the associated increase in violent crimes there as a result of criminals retaining and using their firearms in assaultive crimes while the now defenseless law abiding general public turned theirs in for destruction.

John Bolton, former US Ambassador to the UN, has said that one of the the greatest dangers toAmerican's gun rights are non-governmental organizations, such as IANSA. Just consider Rebecca Peters and IANSA's Australian success that they want to use as a model for the United States. There is still a UN anti gun treaty pending here.

CCRKBA reported in their letter that "The Report to the Secretary-General on the UN Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice contains provisions which directly target the rights of law abiding American gun owners. Among the proposals included in the section of the UN report entitled Measures to Regulate Firearms are:

A requirement for hunters to store their firearms in so-called sporting clubs; Allowing only smooth bore firearms or shotguns for personal protection; Allowing firearm collectors to possess only those firearms that have been altered so they can no longer be fired; Requiring firearm owners to establish a need for possessing their guns; Requiring hunters to obtain insurance before hunting; Generally to discourage the private ownership of firearms."

UN's definitions are bizarre...

The UN idea of art is a gun with the barrel tied in a knot.It is outside the building in NYC. Speaks volumes.

Not just any gun: a revolver. These days, that's a pistol specifically associated with private citizen self defense. It is not associated with police or military use.

It's quite clearly NOT anti-gun per se, but opposing guns in the hands of private citizens. They're perfectly happy with guns in the hands of jack-booted thugs.

The stealth maneuver is buried in the Millennium Development Goals, which Obama told the UN we were fully embracing.

From Yahooo:

"Perhaps you would be interested to know that Obama's Global Poverty Act, which he and Biden are heavily pushing to a vote, would put the United States under the United Nations Millennium Summit goals as the benchmarks for U.S. spending. In addition to seeking to eradicate poverty, that U.N. declaration commits nations to banning 'small arms and light weapons' and ratifying a series of treaties, including the International Criminal Court Treaty, the Kyoto Protocol (global warming treaty), the Convention of Biological Diversity, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and the Convention of the Rights of the Child. Those U.N. protocols would make U.S. law on issues ranging from the 2nd Amendment to energy usage and parental rights all subservient to United Nations whims."
