2 or 3 years ago the UN tried to pass a resolution to ban all private gun ownership in the USA. now we know who the stupid people are. and by the way if you want to see something great look at the crime rate in Washington state. they liberalised the carry policy for handguns and the crime rate dropped like a rock!!!

They're still at it Dave! Everybody is aware that John Bolton was appointed U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. but few realize the criticality of this appointment to gun owners! I quote the article by Wayne LaPierre in the Oct. 2005 issue of "The American Rifleman."
"Bolton's appearance before the U.N. Conference to draft a global "treaty on small arms" was remarkable for the simple clarity of his words and for the effect it had on the proceedings:
"The United States will not join consensus on a final document that contains measures contrary to our constitutional right to keep and bear arms."
Can anyone imagine a Canadian politician being as clear, strong and forthright? I thought not!
A manifesto has been distributed by I.A.N.S.A. (International Action Network on Small Arms), a group headed by Rebecca Peters whose accomplishments include the confiscatory ban in Australia that robbed firearms owners of semi-auto rifles. Her world view of firearms ownership would limit possession of firearms to single shot rifles owned by registered hunters only!
I fear the U.S. may be the last bastion of common sense attitudes towards firearms!
