Senate Votes To Address U.N. Gun Ban Crusade
 
Friday, September 07, 2007
 

With the United Nations continuing its efforts to enact draconian, transnational gun control laws in countries around the world, yesterday the U.S. Senate passed the Foreign Operations appropriations bill, which included an amendment by Senator David Vitter (R-LA) that seeks to address the U.N.’s ongoing international gun ban efforts.

Vitter’s amendment to prevent any funding to foreign organizations that infringe upon the Second Amendment rights of lawful American citizens.  Any organization that adopts a policy anathema to the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment would no longer be eligible for U.S. financial assistance—including the U.N.   

The gun ban issue in the U.N. has been percolating for more than a decade, and while NRA has been successful to date in precluding the U.N. from enacting its anti-freedom agenda, the bureaucrats at Turtle Bay remain committed in their zeal to push for additional restrictions on the rights of free gun owners in the United States and around the globe.  Global registration and tracking of firearms would inevitably lead to the global disarmament of free citizens everywhere; something that we cannot and will not let happen.  NRA will remain vigilant in monitoring the U.N.’s anti-gun actions and speaking out in the international community in support of Americans’ Second Amendment rights.

This collection of third world and gurlie-men socialists needs to be taken off the American dole.

This issue is but one of many egregious outrages committed by this herd of parasites. We fund them and provide them with a place to host their idiotic conventions with their screwball uniforms and dress, and they kick us in the face.

This was a creation of Alger Hiss and Franklin Roosevelt and has long outlived its usefulness - if it ever had one.

We should cut off ALL money to these swine and kick them out of the U.S.
