UN Gun Control desires

The Worldwide Gun Control Movement
By Congressman Ron Paul, R-Texas, 6/26/2006 7:15:00 AM

The United Nations is holding a conference beginning this week in New York that ironically coincides with our national 4th of July holiday. It’s ironic because those attending the conference want to do away with one of our most fundamental constitutional freedoms—the right to bear arms.

The stated goal of the conference is to eliminate trading in small arms, but the real goal is to advance a worldwide gun control movement that ultimately supercedes national laws, including our own 2nd Amendment. Many UN observers believe the conference will set the stage in coming years for an international gun control treaty.

A realistic view of the events unfolding at the UN? Or an over-reaction by a gun lobbyist's best friend? What do you think?

Personally? The UN has more pressing concerns to address. But they won't.
