Unless you have been on Mars or have not been informed through your NRA
membership magazine, there is a great threat to our Bill of Rights and America’s
sovereignty. The U.N. treaty to be ratified in 2006 claims our 2nd Amendment
right is making the world a more dangerous place! It is a unilateral binding
treaty on all countries.
I don’t know how many of you paid your cable TV supplier to see the debate on
pay per view between Wayne Lapieere and Rebecca Peters, but you should have. She
is the one that is spearheading this treaty. If you seen it, it should have
scared the hell out of you. She commented that privately owned firearms “are the
real weapons of mass destruction”. She said, “Americans should abide by the same
rules as everyone else”.
That means we should turn in our weapons and give up our freedoms like other
countries. Her attitude towards hunters and sport shooters was that they “should
take up another sport that does not require a weapon”.
On the question of self- defense she said, “Handguns have no legitimate role in
civilian hands”.
There is a conference coming up in 2006 to ratify this ‘Treaty on Small Arms’.
Billionaire George Soros and six countries are heavily funding this. The
countries are Great Britan, Sweden, The Netherlands, France Japan and Belgium
that have contributed tens of millions of dollars with more to come. They want
it so only Governments will have guns. Think back in history what happened when
only the Government has guns. I’m sure the first guy that comes to mind had a
short mustache and waved his right arm a lot!
For the United States to agree and go along with this treaty some future U.S.
Senate body has to approve it and the President at that time has to sign it. In
one sweep of the pen all your rights to gun ownership are gone. No more hunting,
no more target shooting, no more self defense! It will be dialing 911, which I
believe to be a government sponsored ‘Dial a Prayer”.
According to Gun Week newspaper Rebecca Peters has said opposition from the U.S.
and its new Ambassador John Bolton could make the drafting of the treaty a
difficult task, if not impossible. For right now thank God, we have the right
person at the U.N.
This is very serious and you need to tell everyone who hasn’t heard about it. We
need to watch who we elect to the Senate and the Presidency in future years. It
must and can only be people who will staunchly defend our 2nd Amendment. The
time to spread this news is now, because 2006 is right around the corner. It’s
more than guns, it’s freedom!!
An ‘I don’t care’ attitude now could end up in a, “Don’t shoot me” plea later.
To give you an idea of what’s at stake, here’s an example of global plotting
to take away your rights:
Many anti-gun individuals and groups from around the world convened in Rio de
Janeiro in March, for the International Meeting on the Regulation of Civilian
Ownership and Use of Small Arms. The aim of this meeting is to steer a
global gun control agenda at the UN. Here’s an excerpt from the
Chair’s Summary of the meeting:
Building on the principles noted in the Chair’s summary from the January
2005 meeting in Montreux and having examined the above instruments, as well as
several national case studies, the experts proposed a number of principles that
could form the basis for minimum standards to guide national small arms control
policies and regulations:
-
Civilians should be restricted from acquiring or possessing
small arms designed for military use.
-
Ownership of small arms should be contingent on obtaining a
firearms license, which, in turn, could be based on the following minimum
criteria, inter alia – meeting a minimum age requirement; lacking a relevant
criminal history, including of intimate partner and family violence; existence
of a legitimate reason to acquire weapons; observance of relevant gun laws as
well as the safe and efficient handling of small arms.
-
Small arms licenses should be time-limited and subject to
periodic renewal.
-
Measures should be in place to allow for the removal of small
arms from owners whose licenses have been revoked or persons unfit to possess
firearms.
-
Small arms ammunition sales should be restricted to those
with a valid firearms license, and only for ammunition suitable for the type of
gun specified on the license as well as limitation on the number of rounds of
ammunition allowed.
-
States should ensure that adequate records are kept of all
civilian-held small arms, including details of the authorized holder and unique
serial number of the weapon.
-
Greater co-ordination of civilian focused small arms laws and
enforcement practices should be encouraged to the greatest extent possible to
ensure consistent good practices within regions as well as national uniformity.
-
Where feasible, States, international organizations and civil
society should provide assistance and collaborate for the effective
implementation of standards such as these.
