Sure we think we are smart to paralyze the anti-gun politicians with our pro-gun lobbies . We have pissed off alot of people in doing so too .

http://www.tampabay.com/opinion/columns/article993785.ece?comments=legacy

Obama is a life long liberal radical against the 2A .

The world is greeted at the United Nations in N.Y.City by a huge statue of an American revolver that is twisted into the shape of a pretzel .

So while we laugh & pat each other on the back about H.R. 45 , the CIFTA Treaty begins to revise , rethink , and jettison our history and constitution .

H.R. 45 is a long long shot and will not pass the house & senate however the CIFTA Treaty is much more dangerous due to its subtlety and less cumbersome process of passage . It makes U.S.gun owners subject to international gun laws .

"...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

"Sometimes it is said that man cannot be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the form of kings[, politicians, senators, congressman, or presidents] to govern him? Let history answer this question."

"The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it."

Thomas Jefferson is the man.


I believe that it is possible to see revolution, at least in my time. But before citizens are willing to defend their guns through the use of those guns, there will be a great deal of oppression and tyranny shouldered before it is thrown off. A great deal of oppression will be tolerated before we rebel. Say, for instance, that an international arms treaty prohibited the open carry of your firearms. Would you, when stopped to be disarmed and tried for the bogus idealism of today's "global citizenship", be willing to shoot you way to freedom? Just as with the French revolution, tyranny is shouldered for a long period of time before it is thrown off. Kennedy said that "those you make peacefully revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable."

This is America. We are a Republic comprised of her citizens. Our natural and God-given freedoms are protected under the Constitution. We will not allow our freedom to be violated. We answer to no one foreign nor domestic; we answer to ourselves.

No international - peace loving- gun barrel twisting - United Nations - old white liberal - prius driving - hippie - tyrant - dictator will strip me of my inalienable rights to defend my life, liberty, and happiness. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, Give me Liberty or Give me Death!

Sure, I feel much safer when only criminals in government have guns.

Perhaps these U.N. thugs should place said revolver in a statue of one of history's most abhored murdering psychopathic dictators, such as Adolf Hitler. Kinda changes the scenery a bit huh? Let's see, 20 million [font="Arial, Helvetica, Verdana"]political opponents; Jews; Gypsies; critics; "examples"[/font], DEAD because they were unable to effectively defend themselves because their system of government gave them [font="Arial, Helvetica, Verdana"]
[/font]
  • [font="Arial, Helvetica, Verdana"]Registration & Licensing[/font]
  • [font="Arial, Helvetica, Verdana"] Stricter handgun laws[/font]
  • [font="Arial, Helvetica, Verdana"] Ban on possession[/font]

Few things truly make me angry, and one of those is gun control nut cases. I am disgusted by that :cuss: twisted revolver. What is that doing on American soil? For that matter, why the hell is the U.N. on American soil?

How about a bill to remove that :cuss: piece of garbage from public view? That is a government building is it not? Freedom of Speech DOES NOT APPLY !

Tyrants like to pick and chose which rights they will uphold. It would not fly if a statue was made depicting the lips of a man sewn shut, or the turban, Star of David, or the Cross being defamed and disgraced. Speech and Arms are the essence of liberty.

A funny bit of irony occurred to me just now.

When the UN is dealing with issues of international law such as sanctions, resolutions, etc, all the right-wingers say, "haha what a joke that UN is! They're powerless to get anything done."

But when dealing with UN issues effecting the US, all the right-wingers say, "zomg the all-powerful UN is out to get us!! They're so dangerous! They have so much influence!!" :quirky

The UN could not take away my guns.

An obamination cannot take my guns because the supreme court would not allow it.

The CIFTA is dangerous because there is now a pretext for confiscation, following a ratified treaty.

AWDstlez ,

I am an American Centrist that believes in the RKBA .

The Obama have been told to back off their gun ban agenda until after the 2010 elections .

Every Second Amendment supporter will know everything about the CIFTA GUN CONTROL TREATY.

We must unite and vote .

Just like the government is powerless to stop criminals from buying full auto machine guns and arming up and carrying concealed without permits, the UN is powerless to enforce sanctions against rogue nations because so many other rogue nations are on the councils.... but, with treaties about guns... and the language within those treaties.... they could easily grab one American (who owns a gun illegal somewhere else in the world)at a time while they're traveling abroad away from the protections of our borders or government and try them in the Hague.

For example, who here has built their own AR-15? Well, if they spy long enough, they'll be able to find out who is buying AR lowers.... and then make the arrest when we're vacationing somewhere in Europe.... sounds far fetched... but I'll bet you that something similar is coming down the pike.

So while the UN is completely useless in international enforcement of laws or sanctions... member countries could very well snag Americans deemed a threat to world peace.... to make examples of them.

It's an interesting choice of weapon in the statue. They chose a revolver. It is not a nuke, bomb, land mine, flame thrower, or tank, but a revolver. A revolver is a symbol of civilian firearm ownership whereas all the other implements are used almost exclusively by the state.

Why couldn't the terrorists fly the planes into the UN building and do the entire world a favor?

Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants ; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides , for an unarmed man be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man .

Hansolo,

You know that the initials "TJ" at the bottom of that quote stand for Thomas Jefferson, right?

Basically, you just plus-one'd one of the main gun quotes by one of the most influential and respected individuals in US history.

And you only gave him a plus-one.

:D

(just razzin' ya)

Without US funding the UN would collapse. If the gov is looking for a place to save money, there's a good place to start. And once you kick them out, you can get some tax paying business using that property too.


And if not, those blue helmets are real easy to spot at 500 yards.

Why would they want to save money?

They know how much sugar to put in the KoolAid so they can keep raising taxes to pay for whatever pet programs and earmarks keep the votes coming.

Chuckle. At this instant, your post count is 911.
