SECOND AMENDMENT SUMMARY - U.S. Ambassador John Bolton stated on the opening day that the Administration could not support the draft Plan of Action to curb small arms sales because it "contains measures contrary to our constitutional right to keep and bear arms." Christine Knudsen of the Connecticut-based NGO Save the Children retorted: "The U.N. Plan of Action is not about the Second Amendment or anyone’s right to enjoy hunting and sport shooting. It is about saving the lives of women and children in the world’s poorest countries."

Knitebane fired back: "The Second Amendment isn't about hunting and sport shooting. It's about saving the lives of men, women and children from the next Hitler, Stalin, Mao or Pol Pot. A well regulated militia, that is every adult that can physically carry a weapon, is the surest way to prevent the next Holocaust."
