Of course the idea is not to protect people, but to allow dictatorships. According to Kofi, "Even in societies not beset by civil war, the easy availability of small arms has in many cases contributed to violence and political instability," he said. "Controlling that easy availability is a prerequisite for a successful peace-building process." Basically peace at all costs, including insuring that justified rebellions against oppressive governments are stopped. Basically, "peace" by upholding all existing govemnrst, regardless of the cost to freedom. All he talks of is peace and stability, not freedom. A stable oppressive order is okay. As if we needed any more proof, 'The report notes with approval countries like China that have acted to "strengthen legal or regulatory controls." China reported that some 300,000 "illicit" guns were seized and destroyed last year by officials acting in response to "new and more stringent national regulations that have come into force ... on the control on guns within the country and on arms exports." ' Of course China bans all private guns, clearly Kofi's ultimate aim. That way your government can oppress you with impunity. But it is okay, because things will then be "peaceful" and stable, as the government will be difficult to topple. Anybody (ie Gore as you point out)who claims that the UN is not a threat to our freedoms is ignorant, right here they openly admit it. We are told to emulate China!. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=17276
