The nutcases just keep coming out of the woodwork, and I wonder why??? (/s)
These fools always forget that CRIMINALS DO NOT OBEY LAWS, only law-abiding citizens do, so that is who they will come after. The framers put the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights for a reason. THIS reason.
Another idiot in America.Who raised these weirdo’s?
I hope enough republican senators with nads step up and block this appontment. This guy is just too far over the edge.
I agree with Koh. There are far too many guns in the world, and we can only wonder how many tens of millions of lives would be saved if governments were forbidden to have them.
“Ultimately, the only sure-fire maintainer of a civil society is the certain knowledge that the person you’re considering f*cking over can kill you.”
Wonder what Iranians would say to that???
If these people don’t like guns then move to the UK.Don’t push your retarded agendas on a free gun loving society.Americans like guns and get use to it or move.
Traitor! This is Treasonous.
Harold Hongju Koh is the 15th Dean of Yale Law School and Gerard C. and Bernice Latrobe Smith Professor of International Law. On March 23, 2009, President Barack Obama nominated Dean Koh to be Legal Adviser to the United States Department of State. His day-to-day duties are currently being assumed by Acting Dean Kate Stith, until a successor is chosen.
A Korean-American native of Boston, he holds a B.A. degree from Harvard College and B.A. and M.A. degrees from Oxford University, where he was a Marshall Scholar. He earned his J.D. from Harvard Law School, where he was Developments Editor of the Harvard Law Review, and served as a law clerk for Justice Harry A. Blackmun of the United States Supreme Court and Judge Malcolm Richard Wilkey of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
Tell that to the Iranians who are being butchered in the streets by their "benevolent" government.
Second Amendment Forever.
I never has been and never will be about controlling crime. In fact, they need violent criminals to advance their agenda. Because, it’s all about controlling YOU!
guns don’t kill people, drivers who are texting kill people.
I’ll get rid of my guns... after all the criminals and governments are disarmed.
Hey Soetoro! Make the moron Koh your Ambassador to Iran. Just before the line goes dead he can report the incoming and the pretty bright flashes of light when Israel finally takes out the Ayatollahs' nukes.

If guns kill civil society, why do not these idiots do away with their personal armed bodyguards, and do away with guns for police?
No, it is the exact opposite. Guns preserve civil society. Guns protect civil society. From criminals who will use ANY instrument as a weapon - hands, knives, screwdrivers, guns, hammers, bricks, whatever - against people who are not criminals.
Guns allow law abiding citizens NOT to be VICTIMS of criminals. Criminals will ALWAYS find a way to get guns. They will because they don’t care if it’s illegal for them to have guns or not.
Fine. All governments disarm first. Show me evidence of their total disarmament. At that time, I will decide if I also wish to disarm, or rule the planet as its lone armed inhabitant.
You know what’s funny? When I was in Iraq I was REQUIRED to be armed at all times... as were the other military members.
And you know what, they were more civil than a lot of people who weren’t in a war-zone (ie here).
Therefore, the premise is fatally flawed.
