The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights is an autonomous organ of the Organization of American States (OAS), which in turn is an international organization founded on 30 April 1948 to promote cooperation among its member states within the Americas.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C., United States, the OAS is a "multilateral regional body focused on human rights, electoral oversight, social and economic development, and security in the Western Hemisphere", according to the Council on Foreign Relations.

OAS need only look at Mexico and Israel to see how well gun control has worked. There are plenty of other examples right within the OAS states for further proof.

“..uphold the human right to live, free from gun violence.”

There is no such thing. You do however have a right to protect yourself and loved ones from gun violence or violence of any kind.

Nor did they intend that gun-toting individuals, rather than government entities, should defend fundamental rights.

So, the founding fathers were thinking of something like Cambodia under Pol Pot?

Yup! Returning to the actual meaning of the 2nd amendment without infringements by local, state or federal impediments would be awesome. That is gun policy I can stand behind. To the international lawsuit......FOAD! 🖕

Please correct me if I am wrong, but international agreement cannot trump the Constitution.

“The gun violence epidemic in the United States will never end until the federal government recognizes that its most basic obligation, morally as well as legally, is to protect Americans’ right to live and not be shot.”

What about abortion and babies? Don’t they have a right to live?

These two need to amputate their richards because rape is a terrible crime and should be stopped.
