U.N.’s View on Guns

I’ve had this document on my machine for a while and decided to upload it…

It’s pretty scary stuff. It’s the United Nation’s view on how guns should be controlled. The worst part is chapter 3 entitled “Regulating Arms in the Hands of Civilians.” It’s pretty much the United Nation’s belief that civilians shouldn’t have guns, instead only the government.

These restrictions are similar to many European countries’ regulations. Just read through it. Not once is the idea of a civilian being allowed to defend themselves even mentioned.

Documents like this are the reason why I’m completely against signing any treaty that involves guns period. For instance that little treaty Obama wants signed between the United States an Mexico.
